Content is Truly The King, Design is The Prime Minister

As you may already heard that an old adage said: “the content is king.” Therefore many blog starters usually focus to create great killer content in their very first of blogging duration. And then – after for several month or even after a year of good quality compelling content creation – they will start to work on other aspects of blogging such as marketing, theme design, etc. It is a normal way of blogging base on my own experience and it may still lead you to great success of blogging.

But – to ensure the blogging success, you should start the other aspect of blogging right after you start to create content for it. It will surely give more great affect than a normal way before. Especially for Design of your blog. A great blog design surely become one of important factors – beside the content it self – to get the readers attention. Great content with great design is sure great combination to achieve your blogging success in fast way. I can say that content is truly the king and Design is the prime minister in blogging kingdom.

Choose The Right Theme and You will Have A Blog with Great Design

And if you are not so good in CSS and PHP coding, or if you do not able (and want) to pay a professional web design, the theme choosing will become really important. You should choose the theme that allow you to re-design the default lay out without need deep knowledge in CSS and PHP coding. I suggest you to use framework WordPress theme as your blog theme for this needs. Framework WordPress theme usually have built in user friendly design facility which allow you to re-design the lay out in really easy way – no need deep knowledge of CSS and PHP coding anymore to design our blog.

I already heard from my around blogging circle how good Thesis theme is for this needs. I even think that Thesis theme will be perfect for this our needs – the needs to re-design a blog lay out in easy way without deep knowledge of CSS and PHP coding. The only but for Thesis theme is that you should pay for it. Usually, if you just start a blog, you still do not want to pay for others beside for the domain name and youb hosting service. If that so, I will suggest you to try Atahualpa WordPress Theme. Atahualpa WordPress Theme is free framework WordPress theme which surely allow us to do blog design in easy way. you can produce a blog with great design even tough you do not have deep knowledge in CSS and PHP coding .

Indeed, this blogging tips blog is using Atahualpa 3.4.5 WordPress Theme. And I already write some of article about how I re-design Atahualpa theme in this blog so you can use it as starting point to create your own design of your Atahualpa Blog. And if you do not find your needs to customize Atahualpa in this blog,  you always can ask about it in Atahualpa Forum (the link in this blog footer area).
