New Site Design and Competition

Posted in Blogging | blogosphere design layout WordPress theme

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I’m proud to present the new and improved look of the blog. It’s an all new unique theme I’ve put together - in fact the first such I’ve ever coded for WordPress. That’s why I’d really like to get a lot of feedback on it. Don’t hesitate to point out any problems either.

The new layout has decreased the header size, so all ad spots now appear above fold in a premium position. Also content has more space and the sidebar doesn’t continue as low as previously, so it’s definitely not all about ads. I felt the old theme didn’t highlight the subscription options enough, so they have now been given more visibility. (Please subscribe, if you haven’t already!)

My plans are to release the theme (free under under GPL) after I’ve improved the code a bit, and made sure everything works as expected. It’s easily customizable, and search engine optimized, so I’m hoping it’ll have a good reception.

Win an Ad Spot

Please share your thoughts on the new look, and include any criticism and ideas for improvement you might have. I’m still looking for a name for the theme, so suggestions are appreciated. The best name will win you a text ad for one month.
