Behance (stylized as Bēhance) is a network of sites and services specializing in self-promotion, including consulting and online portfolio sites. It is owned by Adobe.[2][3]
Businesses like LinkedIn, AIGA, Adweek, and Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, and schools such as Art Center College of Design, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and School of Visual Arts (SVA), have used their services.[4]
ProSite
ProSite is Behance's DIY web design application, similar to popular tools such as Weebly and Joomla. In 2015, Behance announced the development of "ProSite", aimed at web designers, graphic artists and other creative professionals wanting to build a portfolio website. Pricing remained unreleased in late 2015, but a launch of the website making tool was scheduled for the first quarter of 2016.
Served sites
Content from the Behance Network gets fed into a network of sites called the Served sites, which display work in specific categories such as fashion, industrial design, and typography. In September 2010, more were added, including branding, digital art and toy design. In April 2012, advertising, art, architecture and more were added as categories.
Action Method
Action Method is a productivity methodology targeting creative professionals. It includes a line of paper products (since 2014 sold by The Ghostly Store rather than Behance itself) and an online application called Action Method Online (discontinued 1 June 2014).
99U
99U is a consulting service and annual conference in New York City that focuses on marketing. The name 99U comes from the Thomas Edison quote that "Genius is 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration." In 2011, 99U won a Webby Award for "Best Cultural Blog."[5]
