2,671 PointsPortfolio site....help?
Okay so, I am just breaking into the world of web development. So far I have created two websites. One including my portfolio site. My question is "How can I showcase these works? Do I use screenshots? Or simply links?"

2,671 PointsThank you for the advice. But I also am facing another dilemma. I don't really have the money to buy a domain and a host right now. Im searching for a job and I've made all these trial websites. If I cannot have any links to attach to my screenshots, whats the best option for me?

Those are the two I hear about.
