Most people know me as a social media buff, but I’m also an Internet marketing professional by day and web design maven as well…
Which brings me to today’s topic: How you can create a killer SEO Optimized website using the Thesis Theme for WordPress.
Disclaimer: I make a little beer money by promoting the Thesis Theme.
Thesis is SEO and Design Friendly
How sharp are your professional web building skills? Right, about as sharp as a marble if you were anything like me three years ago. The number one reason I love using Thesis is because it makes building sites simple and doesn’t require high level coding knowledge.
The other reason I love Thesis is how it inspires me to learn more (seeing one awesome change makes me want to figure out even more cool tweaks).
You can do the same thing by using something called ‘hooks’. Instead of having to write hundreds of lines of code, a few simple snippets of HTML can remake an entire website.
If you want to give Thesis a shot, get your own copy (I recommend the Developers Option if you want to design more than one website now or in the future).
Web Design on (More Than) A Dime
But wait, let’s say you just don’t have the time or inclination (or, let’s face it, enough basic HTML and design knowledge) to build your own killer website. That doesn’t mean you can’t get your own Thesis website for a reasonable investment.
Before you rush out to buy a website from anyone, consider what your goals are. If it’s just to build a simple personal blog, try getting your own copy of Thesis and making simple changes on your own. However, if you want an SEO optimized website for your own personal brand or business — hire a pro.
Your website is a critical element to building a successful social media strategy. It’s the one place you can curate a message any way you like on a page you designed. Think of it this way — where do you want all your Twitter and Facebook friends visiting — your LinkedIn profile page, or your own website?
When you’re ready to get serious about your social media strategy with an SEO optimized, custom designed website of your own, get one from Social Brand Solutions (the Commando’s side project).
Your SEO Optimized Website Includes:
- Custom Web Design and SEO Optimization
- 1 Year Email Support

Now, here’s the catch: After 4 people sign up, it’s over. I don’t have time to take on hundreds of new projects, but I do want to share my SEO knowledge, design skills, and social media capabilities with a select few of you. By acting now, I’ll even create your own Web Video channels (YouTube and Vimeo) and provide a video tutorial for your private use.
In the meantime, here’s a video that shows you in living color why Thesis rocks:
