Looking for a design solution for your website?
When we were doing all the research that goes into creating a new site, I don’t even want to think about the hours we spent going back and forth over different hosting options and site structures. We were fortunate enough to come by Chris Pearson’s THESIS theme for wordpress and we were blown away.
For starters the THESIS theme is really intuitive and customizable, even if you have only limited knowledge of CSS and HTML you can create a great looking site. If you’re more advanced, all the better to completely customize the theme and make a site which is second to none. Right out of the box it is really easy to get your site up and running, just install a few free plugins and you’re ready to go. It even has a lot of SEO-friendly code built-in, and that never hurts.
With THESIS you can control most of the functionality of the site directly from a control panel interface without having to change any of the actual wordpress code. You can control the layout, meta/alt image tags, your feed link, fonts and style… all the the use of simple tick boxes and drop-down menus. You can even install your Google Analytics or Mint tracking code with some handy pre-made fields… very easy.
The creators of THESIS even included a multimedia box where you can put random rotating pictures, advertising, video, or any custom code that you could want. They even made it easy to decide which ads or picture to run on individual pages, you can have one default setting for the site and override that setting for a specific page if you want to match the multimedia box with the articles/post.
Some major names in the blogging world use THESIS, and you really can’t go wrong to follow their example. To name a few… there is Chris Brogan, Sugarrae, Copyblogger and the list goes on…
The support offered by the DIYthemes forums is amazing, any design or functionality questions we had were answered within an hour or two after posting to the support forums. They have built themselves an excellent community of THESIS users, its a real confidence builder to know you that kind of support.
All in all, we highly recommend the THESIS theme from DIYthemes. If you’re looking for a solution for your site, this theme may be the answer to your prayers. At the price of $87 for individual license and $164 for the developper option, it’s a steal. The purchase price allows you not only to use the theme, but also entitles you to all future releases of this continuously evolving theme.
The 1.5 beta version of THESIS has been out for some time, and is scheduled to be released officially sometime this week.
