The Best in Blogging series gives you proven strategies from top industry experts.
Like a frothy pumpkin spice latte, pre-made themes give websites trendy flavor for a reasonable price. They’ve got a lot of the interactive features that fidget-spinning fans fall in love with, and they cut launch time like an Instagram pro cuts descriptions, which is #totesamaze.
But, let’s face it, you can’t do all that for so many people without becoming a little… basic.
Basic themes are the reason so many food blogs look like generic TV dinners lined up in the freezer section. They’re the reason lifestyle blogs limp along when visitors are trying to check out the latest styles. They’re the reason crafty bloggers can’t quite craft a compelling new brand image.
Why do pre-made themes have to be so basic?
Pre-made themes are cheap because they’re a one-size-fits-all solution for bloggers of all stripes. The same theme may be used by a food blogger, a DIY blogger, and even an online retail store. By default, all three users (along with hundreds of thousands of others) will have the same layout, design options, and interactive features.
In order to meet the diverse range of needs that all potential clients might have, theme developers have to add anything that any potential user might need. That means basic pre-made themes come loaded with widgets and plugins that you probably don’t need but another user might. All those unused features clutter your code and leave your website performing sub-par.
What if you wanted a theme with a little extra in all the right places?
You’ve been telling us for a while that you’d like a little extra for your blog. You love the convenience of a pre-made theme, but you’d like something with a little more flair. Something with a little more pep in its step.
What if we tried something different? Something better than basic?
What if you could have a polished blog that stands out from the crowd?
By customizing a limited edition theme to reflect your brand style, fonts, and colors, you could achieve a more professional-looking blog.

Our idea for a limited edition theme would provide only the interactive features and embellishments that make site visitors smile and none of the other stuff that causes site lag.

You don’t have to DIY a limited edition theme – we’d do it for you. That means you’d have more time and freedom to work on building your brand and expanding your blogging empire.
