order to understand what the<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i

class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>are, we
need to have a few understandings:</p>
<ol
style="margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18.5714px; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
<li style="">Some themes are more tightly constrained
than others. This means that if you choose it because it suits your
current endeavor, it may be difficult to modify at a later date and not
worth the trouble. Conversely, a more flexible theme might not fit your
needs like a tailored suit, but when you need to change it, doing so is
not a problem.</li>
<li style="">Don’t be deceived into picking a theme
based on the color scheme. Usually this can be modified.</li>
<li style="">Note the industry maxim: “Ugly sites make
money. Pretty sites lose money.” Why? Because when you take into
account everything you want to accomplish, you are likely to discover
tradeoffs in the sense that every square inch given to screen space for
pretty graphics subtracts from space you need for something else you
might need such as an email opt-in offer or a video interview which
describes your offer to a “T.”</li>

WordPress Themes: Limitations, Expectations and Choices</h3>
<p
style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; font-family: 'Open Sans',sans-serif,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Although
we might like to imagine that we can do it all on one webpage, the
truth is we need to prioritize in favor of the desired results. Why?
Because of people’s expectations and what might be called “Onscreen
Real Estate.” The fact is that user habits limit what you can do with a
website. For instance:</p>
<ul
style="margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 18.5714px; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
<li style="">You only have about 10 seconds to convince
a user that your webpage is the destination they want and to stay.</li>
<li style="">This needs to be accomplished without
scrolling or going into content buried behind the menus.</li>
<li style="">This also need to be true when they arrive
by way of a search engine to one of your back page articles.</li>
<li style="">They can’t be expected to read a wordy
article.</li>
<li style="">If it is a blog, they need to see
immediately how to find the most recent posts.</li>
<li style="">If they don’t see what they are looking for
front and center, it had better be on a banner or menu.</li>
<li style="">If they don’t buy immediately, they need to
have a darn good reason to give you their email address before they
leave.</li>
</ul>
<p
style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; font-family: 'Open Sans',sans-serif,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">All
these reasons point to 3 main types of design templates:</p>
<p
style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; font-family: 'Open Sans',sans-serif,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><strong

3-Column Classic</strong></p>

sort of design has a proven track record for sales and list building.

<li style="">The Right Column also shows that this
website has video content.</li>

WordPress Themes: The Popular Single Sidebar Type of Theme</h3>
<p
style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; font-family: 'Open Sans',sans-serif,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">In
order to make the user experience less confusing, many people favor a
single sidebar rather than 2 in a “squishy” configuration where the
total width adapts to the screen size. Research has shown that placing
the sidebar on the right rather than the left seems to work better.</p>

is an example of a single sidebar theme. Note the uncluttered look. The
right-hand column could optionally contain a video or an opt-in form or
both. Something really great about this particular one is that it is
the standard design for a sub-page on the following theme:</p>
<h3
style="margin: 20px 0px 10px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-size: 24px; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Best
WordPress Themes: The Popular New Tall Page w/Slider Responsive Theme</h3>
<p
style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; font-family: 'Open Sans',sans-serif,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">In
an attempt to have a less cluttered look, but still communicate the
essentials a design was formulated to display content on a slider
providing a reason to scroll down a tall page. “Responsive” means that
the theme detects the device and browser and adjusts the display to
fit. Features that make this a candidate for one of the best WordPress
themes are listed below the snapshot:</p>
<p
style="margin: 0px 0px 20px; font-family: 'Open Sans',sans-serif,'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; color: rgb(103, 103, 103); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><a

this theme, it is not immediately evident that it is a blog, but
several other features make up for this:</p>

<li style="">The Site Title and Main Menu are at the top.</li>
<li style="">The Slider displays visually appealing
pathways to content</li>
<li style="">The Description section below the slider
provides additional info as well as inviting the user to scroll down to
find out more. When they do, they discover it is indeed a tall page, as
follows:</li>

taller view clearly shows that the website is indeed a blog. Other
versions of this theme (The Pro version) are easily customizable in
terms of layout and color scheme and have places for a gallery as well.</p>
<p

all of the sub-pages show up as the uncluttered single-sidebar layout.
Thus, this is my current recommendation for best WordPress themes.
