I'm currently building my portfolio on Readymag! I would definitely recommend it for beginners who are looking for a unique design-friendly UX layout. They have some nifty features that can make your website really pop!
No coding involved. And it allows you to publish one page for free (with a watermark though) so… it has many basic fonts and it’s pretty much drag and drop with cool widgets that I find tougher to code.
I’ve used Cargo site and all that back in my design school days… and as much as I love Cargo… the learning curve for readymag is much more accessible for everyone who wants to create a website. No hassle of adding some code here and there if you’re creating something simply for fun.
trade social media profiles for a website. or at least add a website as one of your profiles… for specifically artist/designer website building, Readymag allows for soo much creative freedom. i made my artistic portfolio on it!
