For some people, blogging is a medium to express themselves, for some, it is a way to connect with the world and for some, it is the easiest way to market their product or earn a living from it but there is one thing in common to all, they all want to connect with a niche of like-minded people. I’ve never seen anyone who feels blogging is less important.
Whatever is been your case but one thing is very important that no one can ignore and that is content is the king. But at this time where there is a ton of content regarding every topic then I feel only the well-represented content can only win and can be a king.
The first step to make the content look impressive is by making the site looks good and lean. We have often noticed that a lean, clean and simple site theme perform better than a heavy, graphical and full of contents and ads site.
My team and I have selected some of the best WordPress themes that we think can help you with your journey. The listed templates are especially good for personal, lifestyle, glam, photographer, creator, designer, fempreneur, mompreneur blogs and websites.
The process that we have followed to select these themes:
We have considered and compared the following things before selecting them to list on this list.
Layout
The layout of the theme is very important and it always needs to suit your purpose and blog content. For example, no developer blog use masonry grid but masonry grid considered as a great option for a travel and lifestyle blog.
Post Format
Post format style defines how the theme will handle the media and other content on the post. Like the images, social media clickable links or cards, videos or code snippets.
Social Media
Social media marketing is a huge part of growing a blog and its online presence, that is why it’s so important that your blog posts are easy to share.
Monetization
Every blogger must monetize the blog in such a way that a reader doesn’t feel pushy or distracted. But unfortunately, often all the blogs have pushy and irrelevant ads everywhere. Most of the time, it is due to the lack of knowledge of bloggers regarding how to control the visibility of the monetization slots. So nowadays it is considered very important to have a theme with inbuilt options to control the ad slots and other monetization options.
All the themes listed below are not in any particular order.
