The Thesis Theme for WordPress is what I use here at Social Media Commando and all of my other blogs and websites.
One reason for this is because Thesis Theme founder Chris Pearson gives away so many goodies once you buy the premium WordPress design. Now you can make your website or blog look crisp with the Minimal Skin.
$87 gets you a kick ass site that is SEO optimized and comes with an eye appealing design right ‘out of the box’.
*Disclaimer: If you choose to buy the Thesis Theme, I do get a few bucks in commission if you use my Thesis link.
Style and Substance
Blogging is fun, but not when no one visits your website. The boost you get from seeing people value the content you produce is huge. That’s why it’s important to think out your content and distribution strategies. But that’s only half the battle.
Simply put, if the information you share with people doesn’t look appealing, they are far less likely to ‘convert’ into regular readers and promoters of your work. Good looking, informative blogs and sites get recommended, reviewed and shared on social networks more often than amateur looking websites.
Now, combine a good looking design with some hefty search engine optimization bones and your site will now rank well in the SERPs.
That’s why I recommend the Thesis Theme for WordPress and the new Minimal Skin that is available free to people who pay for either a single site license ($87) or the developer license ($164, which gives you the right to install Thesis on an unlimited number of sites that you host).
Don’t forget to customize the Minimal Skin!
Just because it’s a free skin does not mean you can’t add some additional flair. Joining the Thesis community gives you access to lots of helpful tutorials that will give you step by step instructions for customizing your blog or website.
All that’s left to ask yourself is, “How serious am I about building a killer website?”
