Adobe has created an easy-to-use Web site building tool, called Portfolio, which aims to help creatives showcase their work.

The tool was launched this week and is available to Creative subscribers. It works similarly to other Web site builders like Wix and Squarespace.

"Adobe Portfolio takes the pain out of creating a Web site and is flexible to fit a wide range of styles. Whether you prefer an off-the-shelf layout, or something one-of-a-kind, you can individualise the site design to fit your style, aesthetic, and career goals," Sarah Rapp, Adobe head of community and insights, said in a blog post.

Portfolio lets users make use of personalised URLs, analytics , Typekit fonts, and password-protected pages. All Web sites built on Portfolio will make use of responsive design to fit all devices.

Portfolio will also sync with Adobe-owned social network, Behance.

To make use of Portfolio, users will have to subscribe to one of Adobe's Creative Cloud plans which cost from $9.99 (R165.76) to $49.99 (R829.47) a month.
