Work first, then the ask
Gallery, services, a starting range if you want one, and a way to start. Not an about-me essay.
All use cases
Use case · Freelancers
A portfolio that books more clients.
Frontpage builds the page from the work, the services, and how clients start a project. You review it, revise by chat, and publish on your domain.
- Work first
- Rates if you want them
- You approve every change
Free plan to start. No credit card. Frontpage does not invent a CRM.
What Frontpage does
Frontpage builds the portfolio around the hire. You update rates by chat.
A prospective client skims for four things: is this person any good, can they do this work, can I afford them, and how do I start. Frontpage builds that from the work and the services. Start a project can be a form or the scheduler you already use. Raise the brand-project floor to $4k with a sentence.
Show up for skill plus city
Titles and structure ship with the draft. See SEO basics.
Reviews next to the work
Google reviews can sit on the site, so a visitor sees proof before they inquire.
Numbers you can take to a pitch
Analytics are built in. Growth Advisor is on Growth and Scale. You accept or decline. Autopilot is Scale only.
Side by side
An about page loses the shortlist. This page shows the work.

The problem
A bio does not book the project.
A lot of freelancer sites are a bio. Long about page, a gallery three clicks in, rates as "let's talk," no signal they are taking work. A founder skimming three portfolios closes the tab and hires the person whose work was first and whose next step was obvious.
The work is not first
Seeing the work is what convinces a client they can do theirs. An about-me essay is how you lose the shortlist.
Price and availability are a scavenger hunt
A starting range or a quote path, plus available-for-work if you want it. The budget conversation should start on the right foot.
The inquiry hides in the footer
Start a project has to sit next to the gallery. A form or the scheduler you already use. Frontpage does not invent a CRM.
The page never gets found
Skill plus city in the title. A first name is not a title tag. See SEO basics.
How it works
Three steps to a hire-ready portfolio.
- 01
Brief the work
What you do, who it is for, a few projects or links. Add colors and a logo, or let it draft. Getting started.
- 02
Read the page like a client
Frontpage builds a gallery, services and rates, testimonials, and a way to start a project. Change anything by chat.
- 03
Publish on your domain
Connect the domain. Watch inquiries in analytics. Score the old URL with a website audit if you want.
On the first screens
What the freelancer gets on the first screens.
Looks like the practice. Shows the work. Gets found. Asks for the project.
The practice brand
Colors, type, and spacing live in tokens. The work looks like it belongs to you.
A portfolio that leads
Galleries and case studies that show the best work first.
Services, rates, and packages
What you offer and a starting range if you want one. Or a quote path if you would rather qualify on a call.
Availability and intake
An available-for-work signal and a short brief form. Frontpage does not invent a CRM.
Google reviews on the site
Next to the work. Ask for the module.
Search and growth
Titles built with the draft. Growth Advisor from Growth ($49). Autopilot on Scale ($99).
The gaps we fill
What Frontpage puts on a freelancer site.
The work first. A clear start. Suggestions that wait for a yes.
- 01
Build around the hire
The work, the offer, the proof, the button. Bios do not lead.
- 02
Answer price and availability
A projects-from range if you want one. An available-for-work badge if you are taking work.
- 03
Help the portfolio show up
Clean titles and headings. Google reviews next to the work when you ask. See local rank.
- 04
Grow without a redesign
Add a case, swap a testimonial, raise rates by chat. Growth Advisor suggests. You accept or decline.
Score the current portfolio
See if the bio site is losing the hire.
Score any portfolio URL. We email the report. Use it as the brief for a hire-first rebuild. Start at website audit.
After the first inquiry
See which projects get the tap. Approve what changes.

See it in action
A brand designer briefs the portfolio the way they already brief a project.
The work, the services, then a $4k floor and an available-for-work badge with another sentence.
If you land a project or raise rates, say so.
I'm a freelance brand designer for early-stage startups. Build me a portfolio site with my work, a services list, testimonials, and a way to start a project.
Done. Hero with your name and a hire-me CTA, a case-study gallery, services and pricing, two testimonials, Google reviews, an inquiry form. Want an available-for-work badge in the header?
Yes, and add a starting price of $4k per brand project.
Badge and a projects from $4,000 line under services. Analytics are on, so you can see which projects get the most interest.

Questions
What freelancers ask before they publish.
I do a few different things. Can the site handle that?
Yes. Tell Frontpage everything you offer. Lead with the primary service and list the rest, or give each one its own page.
I don't have much of a portfolio yet. Can I still get a good site?
Yes. Frontpage leans on what you have: a couple of strong projects, the process, who you help, testimonials if you have them. Add each new project with a sentence.
Should I really show my prices?
Your call. A starting rate filters clients who cannot afford you. If you would rather qualify on a call, lead with request-a-quote or book-a-call instead.
Can we put Google reviews on the site?
Yes. Next to the inquiry button. Ask for the module.
What happens when I land new work or raise my rates?
Say so. Add the project, swap a testimonial, or change the $4k line. See editing by chatting.
Do Growth Advisor or Autopilot publish without me?
Growth Advisor is on Growth and Scale and suggests. You accept or decline. Autopilot is Scale only ($99). See pricing.
