      Hi all,

      What is the best Wordpress theme for a professional DM blog? I am looking for something minimalistic where I can add my personal profile and have articles nicely listed, potentially grouped within categories.

      Any ideas?

      Thanks.

      Katarina

              "My Blog Tech" for me is the best version, in fact looks very nice, one thing of themeforest, that I don't like, is all the themes looks the same, for me is very hard to choose one, all have excellent color combination or font combination, but if you have some experience in 2 or seconds can recognize it.

              Thats wht I prefer "My Blog Tech" simple and effective

              Note. Keep me updated with progress of your website will be a pleasure if I can help you.

                Hi Moe,

                Wooow! It's really beautiful and it looks incredibly professional! So professional that it makes me feel I might not be ready for something that cool. I will need to see how I can simplify it as most demos come very rich and I would like to start very plain and simple. Thanks so much for your suggestion!

                Katarina

                  Thanks Roman,

                  You are right, Pluto is really nice, but I am not sure if it would work for a DM blog. It looks awesome for recipes, possibly would for fashion or interior design. I think Writing lacks something but Newspaper looks like it offers many options. I will definitely consider this.

                  What do you think about MyBlog? https://demo.mythemeshop.com/s/?theme=MyBlog

                  Thanks.

                  Katarina

                    Avada theme is a really comprehensive one. It has been used for more than a few years which is really nice when you're looking for support as most question will have been already answered. It works very well with Wordpress and comes integrated with page builders and sliders.

                    The reason why I also really like it is because you can install your favorite demo, and just work over the existing content rather than starting from scratch, but even then with fusion page builder it takes a few minutes to build a page layout with drag and drop. Also, once you install the theme you'll basically have instruction videos with-in the theme settings for most set-up tasks or questions.

                    I recommend checking out the demos so you can understand the features available with in.

                      Ok this is just my personal opinion on themeforest

                      Newspaper
                      https://demo.tagdiv.com/select_demo/select_demo_newspaper
                      has many options but was created for big publishers so in my case is the best option
                      for a personal blog but always use for project and clients

                        At what point to stop comments on a blog? Do too many comments hurt the page?

                        I have a page that's ranking pretty well, and driving sales.  That page is starting to get 10+ comments per day and is starting to get quite long.  I was wondering if there is a point where I should disable the comments?  My gut tells me that people interacting with the page, and Google seeing responses with the users SHOULD be a good thing not bad.  But, then I think that a majority of the content of the page is no longer the article, but the comments. All the comments are good, non spammy and directly related to the topic.  People just asking questions, etc.  Good engagement, I should be happy right?

                        Is it okay to delete old blog posts?

                        Hi All, I'm doing some SEO work on an entertainment (movies/tv/gaming) blog that started in 2011. Their recent articles have gained some popularity due to improved content and marketing, but there is some old stuff from the early days that was poorly written and gets virtually no traffic. These are mostly old news pieces. Out of approximately 10,000 articles, about 1,000 are receiving the lions share of the traffic. I feel like their good content is getting bogged down in a sea of crap. Would there be any harm in deleting some of those old posts? Is there a best practice for culling content? Thanks!

                        Should a business blog be on a separate site or on the ecommerce site itself?

                        Hey there. I'm a new Pro member and this will be my first question on the Q&A. Thanks in advance for your responses. I'm the owner of an ecommerce site that sells custom candles. www.prometheancandle.com in case anyone wants to take a peak. I've become somewhat of an expert on all-things-candles over the past 4 years and I am thinking about starting a candle related blog. My question is this. Should I build this blog on the ecommerce site itself, say @ www.prometheancandle.com/blog.php, or should I devote a separate site to answering candle related question, history of candles, etc? At first, I was thinking that the blog should remain on the ecommerce site so readers would have easy access to the shop to be able to purchase products. But then it occurred to me that people who may be interested in reading up on candle history, candle making, meditation & candles, etc., may not want to go to an obviously ecommerce site to do that. I know Google values informational sites more than ecommerce sites (at least I think they do), so that encourages me to lean towards the separate site. Well, I may have just answered this question myself, but I'd definitely be interested to hear feedback and opinions. Thanks so much guys and I look forward to hearing from you.

                        2,500 Word blog post? What's your advice?

                        Most of my blog posts end up being 400-600 words, sometimes more, sometimes less. I have written one that is 2,500 words this time. If it were you, would you make one huge post, or split it into two or three? Or would you say it wholly depends on my site and the type of content? As far as link bait goes, one page is better . . . I guess. But would anyone ever read a 2,500 word blog post, even it it's about a subject he/she is interested in? Additionally, what's better for SEO? Just wants some second opinions. Thanks!
