Handmade Webpage

Your finished resume, with a public home.

A Handmade Webpage publishes a resume you already finished here, so the resume comes first.

What's different

What a public page gives you.

01One page, one address

Your finished resume, published at a name-based address when the name you want is free. No site builder and no second copy of your career to maintain.

02Nothing is public until you say so

Email, phone, location and each link are separate switches, and every page starts private to search engines. Unpublishing takes it down.

03Built from a resume you finished

The page is a copy of a resume that has already passed its checks here, so it cannot drift from what you actually send. Change the resume and the page can be rebuilt from it.

The sequence

Resume first, then a page.

  1. Approve your career record

    Upload a resume, paste one, or build from scratch, then approve the facts once. Everything downstream is limited to what you approved.

  2. Finish one resume

    Either the free master resume made from your whole record, or a resume made for an application. Once its files have passed their checks, it can be the page's source; that step is the real prerequisite, not payment.

  3. Choose a name and a design

    Claim an available name-based address, preview the 10 designs with your own content, and choose exactly which contact fields are public.

  4. Preview, then publish

    You see the real renderer before anything goes live: the same one a visitor gets. Publish when it looks right, and unpublish whenever you want.

The argument

Why a link beats an attachment

A resume gets forwarded, printed and re-saved, and every copy drifts a little further from the one you approved. A link is the version you keep control of: it shows the resume you actually finished, it opens on a phone without a download, and it can be taken down. The page does not replace the file you send. It gives that file an address.

It is deliberately not a portfolio builder or a personal CMS. One page, no blog, no site builder, no visitor metrics. The page is plain HTML and CSS built on the server, ships no scripts of its own, creates no deployment or DNS record, and the public endpoint behind it returns only the page's own content.

Finish one resume, then give it an address.

The page is built from a resume you completed here, so that comes first. Publishing it afterwards is free and takes a minute.

Publish my resume

2 complete application sets free, at the same quality as a paid plan. No card required.

A page can only be built from a resume version that has already passed its checks, so a finished resume comes first. Your page carries a small "Made with Handmade Resume" credit, and the address depends on the name you want being available.

Questions about the public page

Do I need a finished resume first?
Yes. Use a master resume or a resume made for an application, once its files have passed their checks. The master resume is free and made from your approved record, and if you arrive without one you land on its panel to make it.
Does a Handmade Webpage cost extra?
No. One page is included on every plan, including the free one, and creating, publishing or updating it never spends an application.
How many designs can I choose from?
10 today. The gallery lists only designs whose renderer has shipped, so you can preview every one of them with your real content before committing, and switching later re-themes the same content without rewriting it. Each palette's text and accent were contrast-checked against their own background before release.
Will my page show up in search results?
Only if you decide it should. Pages start noindex, and indexing is an explicit switch you control. Unpublishing takes the page down entirely.
Can I use my own domain?
Not today. Pages are served on a name-based address under the page domain, and publishing creates no DNS record of its own.
What happens when I edit my resume?
Nothing, until you say so. A save never touches the live page. Once the new version has passed its checks, an update becomes available and rebuilds the page in the same design you chose.
