A resume website that gets past the scroll

The best way to build a resume website is to describe your work history, skills, and target role to we.inc and let the AI turn it into a clean personal site, or start from a free portfolio template if you want to lay it out yourself. Free template sites are free forever with no AI; AI-written resume sites start at $20 a month on the Starter plan.

Turn your resume into a site recruiters actually read, with your experience, projects, and a way to reach you.

What makes a resume website work

Lead with outcomes, not job titles

A resume website that just repeats your paper resume's bullet points wastes the format. Use the extra room to add context: the size of team you managed, the metric you moved, or a link to the actual output, something a one page PDF resume can't fit.

Keep a downloadable resume alongside the site

Many recruiters and applicant tracking systems still want a PDF for their records. Add a clearly labeled 'Download Resume' link so the site complements rather than replaces the file version.

Match the site to the role you're targeting

A resume site for a designer should look and feel different from one for an accountant. Let the tone and visuals of the site itself demonstrate the kind of work you do, especially for creative and technical roles.

Career changers should explain the pivot up front

If your work history doesn't read as a straight line, a short paragraph on the home page explaining why you're changing direction removes the question before a recruiter has to guess at it.

What it costs

A domain with your name costs roughly $10 to $20 a year and is worth it for a resume site since it doubles as a professional link for years. Because most people only need a resume site built once and lightly updated, the free template plan is often enough; upgrade to the $20 a month Starter plan only if you want the AI to write the copy for you from your work history.

The free plan lets you build up to 3 sites from templates and publish them free on a we.inc address. It has no AI. Building and editing with AI starts on Starter at $20 a month with 250 credits.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a resume website cost?

A we.inc template site is free forever (up to three sites, no AI, hosted on a we.inc address). If you want the AI to write your resume site's copy from a description of your experience, that starts at $20 a month on the Starter plan. A custom domain with your name typically runs $10 to $20 a year.

What should I include on a resume website?

A short summary, your work experience with real outcomes, a projects or portfolio section if relevant to your field, your key skills, and a contact section. Many people also link a downloadable PDF resume.

Should I use my own name as the domain?

Generally yes. A domain like yourname.com is easy for recruiters to remember and looks professional on a resume or LinkedIn profile. we.inc supports connecting a custom domain with SSL included.

Can a resume website replace my PDF resume?

Not entirely. Many applicant tracking systems and recruiters still expect a PDF, so treat the website as a companion piece that gives more context and examples, and keep a downloadable resume available on the same site.

Will a resume website help me get more interviews?

It can help you stand out and give hiring managers a richer view of your work, especially for creative, technical, or project-heavy roles, but it works best alongside your resume and LinkedIn profile rather than instead of them.
