Three Wordpress Themes With SUPER SEO Power!

Postby Nathan Isaac on Tue Apr 05, 2011 10:52 am

Hello again folks,

I am going to share with you, three themes that
have excellent SEO Power for your rankings.

I'll start with my least favorite but still very powerful one:

#1 Genesis Theme: This theme has been used on two of
my websites and has done an excellent job in Google.
I liked the back office controls and settings.

However, both times for some weird reason it would glitch up
on me making my 'Categories' not go in the right spot.

This took me a while to fix the problem and was a bit of a headache.

I felt the support was not that great and
hard to know where to post your issue.

In the end, still had great SEO value
when I did figure out the problem
(which was by accident each time)

#2 Thesis Theme: This theme is very good to use for niche websites
and has lots of settings for your needs. Can be a little overwhelming
at first but once you get the hang of it, it's better.

I found with ALL the settings, it was some effort when you are setting
up more websites with this theme, too much effort for many websites.

I really like the font in this theme.

If support is needed, it's very fast and easy to get help.

#3 Theme MX: I really like this theme for a few reasons;

a) Lots of settings but very easy and fast to setup,
so if you have multiple websites you're putting up,
this is a quick and easy theme to use.

b) The interlinking is awesome! You can set up widgets pointing to your articles
which can be Anchor Text, plus at the bottom of the page you have and spot
where you can write a brief paragraph that can have anchor text.

Check out the photo below to see what I mean.
The blue is the Anchor Text links going to posts.

c) The theme is super fast and flawless when working on it,
I've never have to use support for any issues.

d) You can easily add an optin box to your pages or
posts with a built in feature, so no plugin is needed.

Nathan,

Thanks for the recommendations on themes. I am familiar with thesis but the others are new to me.

Since I create sites for clients many of my sites have similar setup starting points that are not the defaults in the theme I use the setup can be time consuming. I actually made a MySql back up file from mysql of a new setup with my defaults and I load it into the mysql database to get a fresh setup done in about 3 minutes in a new directory.

That is an advanced technique but it reminds me of using Ghost to clone hard drives.

I use a very flexible theme called Atahualpa but the SEO needs a plugin to get everything I want.

Wordpress Themes

Postby Scott MacDougall on Tue Apr 12, 2011 11:50 pm

Thank you for the post.
I am new to Wordpress and finding a theme took more time than it should have. Are the themes you reviewed free? I am trying to optimize my sites and am also working on networking on the net. Following some great business leaders and have finally found a formula that works for me.
SEO optimization is crucial.
Thank you again and I look forward to more information about Wordpress.
Best to you
Scott

Scott,

I am not sure if the themes Nathan mentioned are free or paid. I know Thesis is a paid theme.

I have been happy with Atahualpa. It supports from 1 to 5 columns, extensive customization, rotating graphic elements under the header to show multiple products with out the viewer having to click anything and it is FREE. I wrote extensions to wordpress that handle fully themed and branded auto responder pages, landing pages, e-commerce thank you pages and lead generation that I use with it and other themes to create those functions for business tasks

There are many simple themes that do not allow a lot of features, I prefer to use a more complex theme for that reason.

I hope that helps

That's a great tip if someone knows how to learn it :D

I I totally forgot you could do that :D

Nathan,

Thanks for the feed back.

I know most users are not going to backup and restore their wordpess Mysql database manually but for a seasoned web designer with a technical background it is sure a quick and simple way to create any default condition you want for any theme and then clone it for new clients or new projects of your own.

By the way Nathan in regards to the three themes you shared someone asked if they were free or paid themes. If you could take the time to answer that it would be useful I think.

Have a great day.

Oh I see that.

Yeah all three of these are paid themes

I would always recommend if you can to pay for a theme :D

Nathan,

thanks for clearing that up for everyone.

I agree paid themes honor the work people did as well as indicate a higher quality product in many cases.

Matt,

Have you tried Backup Buddy? I purchased it recently and was thrilled at how it saved all my plug in settings and all the niggly details that are a pain to do yet again when setting up a new - but similiar website. Plus you can use it to back up your sites.

Of course, you may be well beyond needing the assistance of Backup Buddy

For looking for free SEO, as Matt mentioned you can get good SEO results with a free theme and an free SEO plugin like Platinum SEO.

I am a huge paid Thesis theme fan myself. It does have a learning curve attached to it though.

Best wishes

I have not used backup buddy, but it sounds interesting as it does not require deep technical knowledge like working inside Mysql. It is probably a more widely usable strategy.

I like thesis, but I have not used it since I found atahualpa. I may incorporate it into some new work but as you say there is always the learning curve of getting to know all the options and what they do for you.

Since I create sites for my own work and for clients I tend to stay inside the tool set where I am most efficient.

Thank for the comments
