Switching My WordPress Themes to Thesis

Get Thesis

by George

Ever have that itch to make a change?

Yeah, you know what I’m talking about.  I have the itch and its time for some changes.

One thing I am changing is the look of my sites. The majority of my sites use WordPress for blogging and content management. Most of my sites look, well, haven’t been what I would call…clean. There I said it!

To get things looking and behaving the way I want them, I have decided to use a popular WordPress theme called: Thesis (affiliate link).

I have seen so many others praise it and after looking into its benefits, I have decided to use it too. Thesis is great for its SEO benefits, clean look and ease of use. I have put it on a few sites and what a difference from my old themes!

So, if you look at the site now, you might say, “Umm..you didn’t really customize it much. It looks like a typical Thesis site.”

Guess what? You would be right.

Now, I have to say, I am no designer and don’t play one on TV – I help clients with their writing and Social Media stuff. I did add some colors and a few other things. I will also be adding more features as I learn more about Thesis. I will post the things I do learn here for you – hopefully you will find some use out of those tips.

What theme do you use with your blog?

As you (probably) know, we use Thesis too, and love it. Good move!

Thanks Jackie!

Yes, I did notice that. Thesis is such a great WordPress theme framework and I love it! Now, I’m not a designer as you may see from my lack of design, but I am working on making it look better :)
