TheAsk vs. WordPress Portfolio

Speed and Simplicity: Your Keys to Opportunity

When it comes to landing a job, every second counts. Employers are busy, and if your portfolio site takes too long to load, they might move on before seeing what you have to offer.

Don’t let a slow website cost you your next opportunity.

It might seem like a few extra seconds won’t matter to a CEO, but in reality, they’re juggling multiple tasks. If your portfolio doesn’t load quickly, you’re wasting their time — and potentially losing a chance to impress.

You can build a decent portfolio in a few hours using WordPress

The WordPress TLDR;

Using WordPress and the plugin TLP Portfolio and the default settings for the Astra theme, I banged out a pretty attractive portfolio in a few hours.

Then, I hopped on the AI powered portfolio builder we’re working on called TheAsk.
