Take Credit for Your Web Design Work

whobuiltitWeb Designers often find themselves in the Wild Wild West when it comes to job hunting. One thing they often must combat is taking credit for work they’ve actually completed. You see, it’s far too easy for anyone to claim that they designed the Web’s elite.

What if I told you I designed the simplistic look found on Google.com. Would you believe me? Probably not. But nothing would stop me from making that claim on my resume.

A new Website, WhoBuilt.it, hopes to be the solution to the problem. The tool lets you claim a site through a simple registration process where you must provide your birth name and e-mail address.

Recently claimed Websites appear on the site’s homepage.

The site is a no-brainer for anyone who builds/designs Websites. Why not get credit for your hard work> It’s not about bragging, it’s about protecting your professional integrity.

New features WhoBuilt.it plans to add in the near future include:

* Editable descriptions to describe your sites!

* Add comments to your favourite sites for all to read!

* Easy claim-file downloading – one click to download a blank file!

* Find out who likes the most sites!

* An awesome Firefox extension! Hooray!

The site accepts OpenID.
