“Hello I am!” – a Cool Trend or Getting Old? 20 Web Design Examples
November 30th, 2011 Posted in Inspiration
You have probably seen the trend where designers/freelancers go ahead and introduce themselves right away on their websites. It has been a trend for quite some time now, but is it still cool? We’ll let you decide for yourself. We think it’s pretty cool still, – as long as there’s some creativity and innovation involved. We think that by introducing yourself on your landing page, you’ll have a chance of immediately connection with your visitor. In some cases it’ll definitely be a good thing to be more personal and less professional.
Here are some examples of how it can be done.
Enjoy!

I personally think it is overdone nowadays. It is definitely good to have the personal approach, but I would like to see people doing this via other means.
Having – “My name is Tom and I like to design stuff”. Does that really tell anyone much?
