As with many things, the answer is… It depends.

If you are signed to an agency, then it can be a good idea to have your own website to go along with the listing you’ll have on their site, but it isn’t quite so central to your career as if you’re freelance, and you’ll have to check with your agency whether you’re allowed to have a website to promote yourself. Some modelling agencies, particularly if you have an exclusive contract with them, may prefer it if you didn’t and the last thing you want to do is put that relationship in jeopardy.

However, if you are a freelance model, then having your own website is critical. It’s a showcase of your talents and a great place for potential clients to find you, or to go to find out a little bit more about you, your experience and skills.

Remember, any old website will not do. The quality of your website will reflect directly onto you. So if you have a shoddy, obviously home-made website with poor quality pictures that are stretched out of proportion then you will come across as amateur and will be unlikely to get any work offers.

On the other hand, if your website looks like the real deal, with a nice gallery of good quality photos as your portfolio, clear, well written description of your and your experience working as a model, and all kind of other useful information – such as whether you can travel, whether you’re willing to do nude etc., then it will demonstrate to the visitor that you know your stuff and what it means to be a professional model.
