The website, splashy and white, promised locally sourced, plant-based meals, and it cost $420 for five days, about four times as much as I spend on my weekly meals. It was clear to me that I wasn't just subscribing to a food service, I was signing up for a lifestyle, an aesthetic.

Why Do Brides Wear White?

The white gown is synonymous with weddings, a custom that's often assumed to be a nod to old-school values of purity and chastity, as embodied by the virginal bride. But in reality, the rise of the white dress is less a story of religious influence or puritanical mores than it is a tale of economics and marketing.

Do We Still Need Resumes?

HostGator For designers, developers and freelancers, it's been a must for a while. But now it's becoming the norm for all savvy professionals. Here's how to make yours stand out.
It's all about the online portfolio. Here's how to make yours stand out.

Stop us if you've heard this before, but, do you have a website we can see?

Personal websites are a crucial part of the hiring process for savvy professionals. And since you read Digg, we're going to assume you're very savvy.

So, how do you make your website stand out? The experts at HostGator share the best website-building hacks to help you get hired.

1. Logo And Tagline: First impressions are important. And your logo is one of the first things a visitor sees when they land on your website. Make sure it's solid and reflects the tone you want visitors to take away from your site.

Taglines? Equally important. A smart tagline is an easy way to set yourself apart from the rest of your field. Just make sure it's succinct, informative and memorable. Totally easy, right?

2. The Actual Portfolio: This seems self-explanatory, but you'd be surprised. Some prefer featuring their work on a homepage, while others like to have separate pages dedicated to showcasing different projects.

Of course you want to showcase your highest quality work, but don't stop there. Add client testimonials you've received and even spell out project goals and results whenever possible.

3. Service/Skills Breakdown: You want to make navigating your website as easy as possible, and a services or skills page spells out in detail what you actually do. Don't make your potential client or boss guess. Because if they have to think too hard, they're likely clicking off the page.

Map out your services or skills as strongly (and succinctly) as possible. Also, highlight your experience and include testimonials whenever it makes sense.

4. Your Story: Here's your chance to really show off that personality. You're not a robot after all. (Right? Right??)

Tell the reader what makes you you. This builds trust, and, if you do it right, endears you to anybody that comes across your site. Which will hopefully be lots and lots of hiring managers.
