A number that counts up from zero when you scroll past it.

Every freelance portfolio has three of them. 50+ projects. 5 years experience. 100% client satisfaction.

I put them in this one too. Then I thought about who is actually reading them.

A client landing on a freelancer's site is asking one question: can this person handle my thing without me having to manage them?

"50 projects" does not answer that. It could be 50 logos for 20 dollars each.

What answers it is one project described properly. What the client needed, what you built, what happened after. One story beats three counters, every time.

So the counters stayed, but they are not the proof. The CMS project pages are.

→ Counters set scale

→ Case studies build trust

→ Only one of those closes a client

If you are building a portfolio and you only have time for one section, skip the stats. Write up a single project properly instead.

I put real prices on an agency template. 3,200. 6,500. 12,000.

Most studios will tell you this is a mistake. Every project is different. Pricing depends on scope. Publishing a number caps what you can charge.

I think all of that is a defence of an uncomfortable conversation.

Here is what actually happens when there is no price on the site.

A founder with 4,000 to spend books a call. You spend forty minutes discovering he cannot afford you. He spends forty minutes learning the same thing. Nobody wanted that call.

Meanwhile the founder with 15,000 assumes you are expensive or cheap based on nothing, and half the time he guesses wrong and never enquires at all.

A number does two jobs at once:

→ It disqualifies people before they take your afternoon

→ It tells serious buyers you have done this enough to know what it costs

You do not need a fixed price. "From 6,500, four weeks, eight pages" is enough. The word from carries all the flexibility you need.

The studios who publish prices are not the ones with nothing to hide. They are the ones who stopped wanting calls from people who were never going to buy.

Plumbing Company Framer Template - Pipeo

Happy weekend 🫰

Three commission emails from Framer this morning. Small numbers, but they made my weekend better. Thank you, @Framer 🫶

The interesting part: they came from a free template. Not a sale.

Free templates are on my profile. Take the one that fits your business. 📈

Six awards, no badges.

The standard is a row of gold laurel graphics. I built a table instead: award, issuing body, arrow.

Badges are unreadable at a glance. Tables get read, because reading is what tables are for.

And a wall of laurels says please notice we were recognised.

A quiet list just says we were.

Confidence is a design decision, not a personality trait.

I built a website for a product that does not exist. Meridian - an AI agent infrastructure platform I invented before I designed a single section.

"SEO-Optimized" used to be my go-to bullet on Studio's listing.

Every feature had "beneficial for SEO" tacked on. Smooth transitions - beneficial for SEO. Fast load - key factor for SEO. Even accessibility, tagged the same way.

For a portfolio site, that phrase means almost nothing. A studio's actual SEO problem is smaller and more specific: no alt text on project images, no real page title on the case study pages, a blog nobody updates so the sitemap goes stale.

→ Alt text on every project image, written like a caption, not a keyword dump

→ A real page title on each case study, not "Project 1"

→ Only promise a blog section if you will actually post to it

None of that is exciting. It is also the whole job.

Fixing the listing this week.

I didn't expect a sidebar update to teach me anything.

Then Framer split their navigation in two.

Old version: everything lived in one sidebar. Marketplace links, Feed, Hype, Gallery, your account settings - all stacked in a single column, competing for the same visual weight.

New version: two systems.

→ Left rail holds structure. Where you go.

→ Top bar holds content. What you browse.

Marketplace and Account don't move. Feed, Hype, and Gallery do.

That's the whole trick. Separate what stays from what changes, and give each one its own space.

Most crowded UIs aren't crowded because there's too much in them. They're crowded because everything is fighting for the same row.

Split the fixed from the flexible, and the crowd disappears on its own.

Framer just put ranking where creators can actually use it.

Open your profile → sort by Trending → your templates now line up in serial order. Best performer first.

No more guessing which one is carrying the profile.

And on each card → Remix button and pricing sit right there. No click into the listing to check free or paid.

One less step between "I like this" and "I'm using this."

Small screen. Real difference in how fast a visitor decides.

Four dentists, four individual profile pages. Not four headshots in a grid — four actual pages, each with qualification, years of experience, and specialisation.

Patients pick a dentist by looking at their face first. That is not a design opinion, it is how the decision actually gets made. Someone is choosing a person who will put their hands in their mouth, and that is judged on the same instinct we use to size up a stranger.

A name under a photo does not answer anything. A profile page does — how long they have practised, what they specialise in, one line in their own voice.

→ Real portraits, not stock headshots

→ Specialisation stated in words a patient uses, not a code

→ Give each person their own page, not just a card

When the service is delivered by a specific human, the human is the product. Design the site like that is true, because for a dental clinic, it is.

Most agency testimonials say nothing.

"Great to work with." "Loved the results." Copy that could sit on any site, for any studio, about any project.

Morphe does it differently.

Every testimonial names something specific. Not "they were professional" - what they actually asked, what changed because of it.

A vague quote proves you existed.

A specific quote proves you thought.

That's the difference between decoration and evidence.

One line of copy, only when you hover.

Norell's services section doesn't explain everything upfront. It shows four names in bold, dim. You hover one, it lights up, the description appears next to it.

The rest stays quiet on purpose.

Nothing competes for attention until you ask for it.

That's not simplicity. That's control.

One thing I wish I knew when I started using Framer headless through the CLI.

Writing a prop control inside a secondary variant returns "Commands applied cleanly" even when the value does not change. I hit this many times on the same instances, verified through MCP each time: No changes.

That same day the  command went through on all variants, verified by reading back through the CLI.

So the CLI can  write these. It just does not always tell you when it did not. 🥺

One related thing I could reproduce: a long-running session did not know variant names created after the session started and rejected every write against them.

-> session new fixed it instantly.

Working rule I use now:

1. Write through the CLI.

2. Always read back

3. If the value did not land, re-run in new session and retry.

4. If it still does not land, write through MCP updateXmlForNode

A hard failure would be easier to work with than a clean success message. @Framer

Syntra an AI chatbot and mobile app template, now live.

Conversation UI and device mockups on every page, so the product shows itself before the copy explains it. 11 pages, CMS blog, full style guide.

Shipped a new template Pawora, a veterinary and pet care site.

10 pages: services, meet-the-team for veterinarians, care plans with pricing, and an appointment-request contact form with map. Figma source file included.

Most pet care sites play it safe and end up forgettable. This one went the other way bold display type, warm colours, signpost buttons. Friendly without being childish, because a care business still needs to feel trustworthy.

Framer x India 🇮🇳

I stopped putting a services list on agency homepages.

It tells a founder what you know. It does not tell them what happens after they pay.

That is the actual question. Nobody asks it out loud because it sounds distrustful, so the site has to answer it unprompted.

A four-week timeline does it. Week 1 audit. Week 2 roadmap. Weeks 3 to 4 execution. Week 5 scale.

Now the spend has a shape.

→ Name the weeks, not the phases

→ Say what they receive, not what you do

→ Give week one a visible end

Agencies sell something invisible. The process section is where you make it visible.

On to template #22. Something a little different this time.
