Why create a CV website?

Demonstrate your professionalism and stand out

Unlike professional social networks, a CV website gives you complete control over the presentation of your professional skills and experiences. It allows an advanced structuring and customisation of your career path and gives a more professional image to recruiters. Use your site to highlight what you want to present to potential employers.

Direct recruiters to more online resources

On social media, changes in the algorithm can limit the visibility of your skills and achievements. By opting for a CV site, you ensure a constant and direct presence of your professional page on search engines. Don’t forget to work on your SEO to ensure your website is visible on Google, and attracts the attention of a wider audience.

Centralise your professional presence

With a CV website, you can centralise all your business information and other important links (social media, publications, portfolio) in one place. Build your online reputation and make it easier for recruiters by giving them direct, organised access to everything they need to know about you through your website pages.

Best practices for an effective CV website

Choose the right domain name

It should be short, easy to remember and reflect your professionalism. Check its availability and opt for a suitable extension.

Secure your website

Security is paramount. Make sure you perform regular updates and use strong passwords. You can also use an SSL certificate and DNSSEC security to reinforce the protection of your website.

Define your goals

Your CV website should present your skills and experiences as clearly as possible. Invite visitors to contact you by email, download your CV or check out your online portfolio.

Bring your website to life

Regularly update your online CV with your new experiences and training. Enrich your portfolio, events and press clippings. You could also create a blog about your career, which you would need to update regularly.

Choose a suitable hosting plan

Your project requires certain resources. As a general rule, a CV website doesn’t require as many resources as a large website, so choose wisely. With OVHcloud, you own your website, which you can import and export as you wish.

Your questions answered

What is a CV website?

A CV website is a personal webpage that dynamically and interactively showcases a candidate’s career path, skills and achievements. It complements a traditional CV by offering a richer space to stand out among recruiters. Promote it on your personal and business networks to highlight your experience.

Which is the best site for writing a CV?

There is no single ideal site for creating a CV, as your choice depends on your specific needs and preferences. Platforms like LinkedIn are popular because of their ease of use. With many solutions, you can create a professional website based on a template, or with a pre-designed model. With an OVHcloud hosting plan, you can move away from pre-designed templates by creating a space that reflects your own world. You determine the number of pages on your website, its design, and the information you share, in order to best meet the expectations of recruiters in your field of expertise.

How do I create a CV website?

To create a website for your CV, start by choosing a website building platform, such as WordPress, which has a number of customisable templates. Sign up, choose a design template and customise it with your professional information, portfolio, skills, work experience and any other relevant elements that could interest potential employers.

How do I create a CV in HTML format?

To create a CV in HTML format, it is best to have a basic knowledge of HTML and CSS. For this purpose, the free web hosting included with your domain name will be enough to get started. Start by structuring your CV with HTML tags to format the sections (such as , and ) and then use CSS to style it to your preferences. There are many online tutorials to help beginners throughout this process.

Looking for a job? What if you replaced your CV with a website?

Complementing your traditional CV with a website can be a great strategy to stand out in a competitive job market. A website allows you to present your skills, experiences and projects in a more comprehensive and interactive way. It offers potential employers a richer and more personalised view of your professional profile. Find the design or template that best fits your image and start writing your CV online. Add whatever you think is relevant, plus your contact information and social media links to enable recruiters in your industry to discover your full profile.
