Selecting a Theme for Your WordPress Website

One of the great benefits of using WordPress is the fact that there are thousands of quality free themes available, along with premium and custom themes. But all of these choices can sometimes make the decision even more difficult.

In this talk I will cover things to consider when picking the perfect theme for your WordPress website or blog.

Topics include:
– What’s the purpose of your site
– Does it match your style or brand?
– If you have a logo, will it work in the theme?
– Is the design appropriate for the kind of website you want to build?
– Is the theme widget ready?
– Is the header easily modifiable?
– Does it have good page templates, e.g. CMS style front-page, unique archive design etc.
– Is the theme search engine friendly?
– Is it compatibility with every browser?
