Portfolio Recommendations: Let Your Network Vouch for You
Portfolio Recommendations
A great portfolio shows what you built. Recommendations show the impact you had on the people you worked with.
The Feature
Anyone with a LinkedIn account can leave a recommendation on your portfolio. These appear as public endorsements, adding credibility and social proof to your profile.
How It Works
For Portfolio Owners
- Enable recommendations in your Portfolio Settings

For Recommenders
- Click the recommendation link or widget on a portfolio
- Sign in with LinkedIn to verify your identity
- Write your recommendation
- Submit — it appears on the portfolio immediately
LinkedIn Verification
Every recommendation is tied to a verified LinkedIn profile. This prevents spam and ensures authenticity. Visitors can see the recommender's name and LinkedIn profile, building trust.
Recommendation Widgets
A recommendation widget appears on portfolio pages, making it easy for visitors to leave feedback. The widget adapts to every portfolio theme, working seamlessly on both light and dark backgrounds.
Why Recommendations Matter
- Social proof — Real endorsements from real professionals
- Trust signals — Verified identities via LinkedIn
- Differentiation — Stand out from portfolios that only show code
- Networking — Strengthen professional connections
