Choosing a Theme
You shouldn’t underestimate the amount of work involved in setting up a website… particularly when it comes to choosing the design or “theme” of the site.
There are so many WordPress themes to choose from, and I wasted an disproportionate amount of my4 hours just wallowing in the abundance of designs:
The beauty of WordPress is you can apply a new design at any time, and your content will be reformatted to the new look and feel.
You will need to put together your own list of requirements for your design, but mine were:
1. I wanted a theme that looked fairly “corporate”
2. I wanted to incorporate alot of widgets like Google AdSense and Social bookmarking
3. I wanted to be able to amend the design in terms of the use of colours, my own graphics
In the end I decided to experiment with Copyblogger theme but of course, I can always change my mind later!
