How to choose the right template

  1. Match your primary service. Consultant? Use Consultant. Coach? Use Coach. When in doubt, Personal Portfolio adapts to anything.
  2. Check the default sections. Does the template include the sections you need (pricing, case studies, gallery)? It's easier to customize an existing section than build one from scratch.
  3. Preview the demo. Click through the live demo. Does it feel right for your brand? The tone and energy should match your service.
  4. Don't overthink it. You can switch templates anytime. Pick one, fill in your content, and publish. Iterating on a live site is faster than perfecting a draft.
