I've been self-hosting, but I don't have time for it anymore. What service or website is hosting your work so that potential clients can take a gander at and find you?
I hear you, Samantha. I used to do the same thing, but it took up too much of my time. Now I keep my portfolio at Smug Mug. It's all powered by AWS, so you know they're a reliable and safe service. You can add watermarks and other copyright protections automatically. It's nifty!
