Why does a resume website beat a PDF?

A PDF résumé is a dead end: it downloads, it sits in a folder, and the version a recruiter has is whatever you sent that day. A resume website is a living link — you update it once and everyone who has the link sees the latest, and they can click straight through to your projects, GitHub or work samples.

It is also simply easier to share. One link goes in your résumé header, your LinkedIn, your email signature and every application form. The recruiter taps once and your whole story opens, designed and current — no download, no outdated file.

Frequently asked questions

What is a resume website?

A resume website is your CV turned into a clean, linkable web page — your intro, experience, skills, projects and contact, all openable in one tap instead of downloaded as a PDF. It is easier to share, always up to date, and lets you link projects and work directly. SitesPlaced resume website templates make one in minutes, free for students.

Why use a resume website instead of a PDF?

A PDF is static and gets buried in inboxes; a resume website is one link you can put in your résumé header, LinkedIn and applications, that opens instantly and stays current. It also lets recruiters click straight through to your projects and work, which a PDF cannot.

Which resume website template should I choose?

Pick based on how much you want to show. A clean one-pager (resume or vCard style) suits a simple, scannable CV; a fuller portfolio layout suits people with projects to showcase. You can switch templates anytime, so start with whatever fits your content.

Can I keep my résumé PDF as well?

Yes — most people do both. Use the resume website as your shareable link and keep a PDF for forms that require an upload. You can even link your PDF from your resume website so recruiters can download it if they prefer.

Are resume website templates free?

On SitesPlaced, students publish resume websites for free, premium templates included, with no card. AI drafts the content from your existing résumé, so it takes minutes.

Will a resume website work for non-technical roles?

Yes. A resume website suits any field — business, design, marketing, science, the arts. It is simply a cleaner, more shareable way to present your experience, skills and work, whatever your profession. Choose a layout that matches how much you want to show, from a tidy one-pager to a fuller portfolio.

How is a resume website different from a portfolio?

They overlap. A resume website is CV-led — experience, skills and education front and centre — while a portfolio leads with projects and work samples. On SitesPlaced you can lean either way with the same builder: start resume-first and add a projects section, or pick a fuller portfolio template if your work is the main story.
