WordPress Frugal Theme Review

[ad_1]

WordPress is the single most important change to the way many people do business online. The free and simple to use software, which started off as a blogging platform, has evolved into a fully developed content management system. But many business owners find that they still have to pay for a unique design for their WordPress blog - does Frugal Theme solve that problem?

Frugal Theme is a paid WordPress which allows anyone who is prepared to invest a little time a smart and easy way to develop a unique design for their websites. Frugal Theme has six panels of controls which allows you to control everything on your site from the header image, the design of your sidebars, your fonts, your background colours - absolutely everything. And you don't need to write a line of code to do it!

Other paid themes in the past have suggested that they could provide this - but Frugal is the first theme I've come across that actually delivers on their promise.

For anyone looking for a genuinely usable and infinitely customisable WordPress theme Frugal is worth a second look. The features I find particularly powerful include:


  1. Frugal's ability to have unique pages layouts with either no sidebars or sidebars unique to that page. In fact you can develop an entire business website using WordPress pages only with these options.

  2. Frugal Theme's easy use of images which uses WordPress's native support for thumbnails which means associating a thumbnail with a post's extract as simple as clicking one button.

  3. Frugal's ability for you to choose colours for your text and backgrounds by either using a colour picker tool or by typing in the hexadecimal code (much easier to get a number of different elements exactly the same colour by typing in the code).

  4. Frugal Theme's code is very efficient - that means its fast loading on your website - a factor which Google is taking more and more into consideration.

  5. There is fantastic support for Frugal from the detailed step by step videos from the developer to an active support forum where questions are answered quickly.

Frugal now has a track record of keeping up with what their customers want and also keeping on top of the frequent WordPress updates. This is critical for me - I am not paying for a theme that then doesn't get updated often enough.

Its easy to install different "skins" on Frugal which is basically a set of pre-set values which gives your blog a different appearance with one click.

SEO Meanings

[ad_1] Like with most things, computer speak has a language all its own. When you create a website you most likely will encounter a lot of new lingo, and while some of it actually makes a lot of sense there are some terms that may be a bit weird, even for the techy among us. When you think of a white hat you may think of the Kentucky Derby or a Royal Wedding but in SEO speak it means the group of techniques that use the best practice, the ones that earn you all the gold stars and brownie points, the ones that don't use bad manipulations to gain traction or ranking, but those who do what they do to the best of their abilities, create wonderful content and follow all the rules. Things like time on page is pretty self explanatory. There are actually people out there who analyze data like how long people spend on a certain site. They are timed and when they click out that data is collected. You optimally want people to spend some time on your site, not just click in and out in three se...

[ad_1] As an obedient online marketing student, you've been creating content for your websites, trying to please the teacher, ie, Google. However after the recent updates, it seems that pleasing the teacher got a little tougher! Google Panda Update & SEO Articles In Feb 2011, Google came up with the Google Panda update with the intention to improve the search result quality. As a result many sites with a lot of ads and low quality content started to fade off. They were replaced with quality content based sites, social networking sites, news sites etc. In this way Google gave an indication that SEO content writing techniques used previously which included keyword stuffing, spinning etc were out of the window. If you wanted to achieve good SERPs, you have to create SEO articles that are meaningful and need not be too "sales-y". So, what do you do to create effective articles that will please the search engines? Content Based on Keyword Group To begin with forget about s...
