Which Are The Best Wordpress Templates?


Answer:

The ones that help you achieve your blog's intention.

There are lots of templates out there. Templates that vary from the crude to the spectacular. templates that take five minutes to install, to five hours. Some are vanilla, some are beautiful. Some can help your blog, and some can wreck it.

Then there are the plug-ins. A WYSIWYG one is essential. They help people who don't know HTML to make presentable copy. Install too many, or the wrongs ones, and you get errors. Or they 'break' when it comes time to upgrade Wordpress.

An SEO one is very useful; if the search engines can't parse your blog properly, the can't index it properly. If they can't index it properly, you might as well not bother, because no one will find your trenchant thoughts.

I started writing a blog because everyone else was doing it. I wanted to investigate the software. I was shocked to find that Google couldn't index my posts properly.

It was a labour of Hercules to wrestle Wordpress into something that would rank properly on search engines. [More about my troubles with Wordpress templates here.]

I then set out to make my own Wordpress templates. These define how your blog is presented to surfers and search engines. It was hard work, as Wordpress is a geek's software, rather than a marketer's.

The end result is that now, with the help of my Wordpress templates, anyone can get their blog indexed properly in Google, Yahoo or MSN. You can type up your pages, and then get on with promoting your blog, confident in the knowledge that your blog software is helping you get higher.

You can feel a smug sense of satisfaction in knowing that your competitors, who went for a wild or pretty one, are scratching their heads wondering why they're having so few visitors!
