Hi gang!


I'm having a bit of a hard time selecting an appropriate theme for my website and would appreciate some suggestions. The website is predominantly goin

Marion Black has a good training here on choosing a theme. She suggests using the filter to find themes that meet your criteria. For example make sure it is a "responsive theme" under layout which is SEO friendly. This means the theme will resize automatically to fit a computer, tablet or phone sized screen and also makes it work better with Google etc. I don't know the details.

I also stuck with a white background since it is supposed to be easier to read, and a simple layout that isn't too cluttered.

To check if a theme was SEO friendly or "responsive" (I am not sure if they are exactly the same thing) I read the description of each theme I was interested in to help further narrow my search. Some state right in the description that they are best for different uses such as photography or business, blogging etc. and explain why. Some will say if they are SEO friendly or responsive. The descriptions seem to vary though so one may be responsive but not specifically mention that.

I don't know the name of her training but you could ask her.

The theme I went with is called NatureSpace.

There are literally 10,000+ possibilities here, so recommending a specific theme for you is near impossible! It's all about YOUR taste. If I had to recommend one, it would be a paid theme from Studiopress, but that will cost you $100 for the theme.

For free themes, I wrote this post: But there are so many more out there. White background, black text, simple menus...those are the criteria I think you should look for!

Hi,
I found that the Iconic One theme or the Omega theme were the ones I prefered. They are fairly simple, but well organized and they navigate easily. They are fairly plain as well, with very little color. Check out my site at http://doyouhavesleepapnea.com to get an idea of what I'm talking about and let me know if you have any other questions.

You can go to my BR website, I have many theme reviews, go to my Search Themes and look for the TOP FREE THEMES, it'll help you a lot in what to choose :)

First you should use many pics especially if this site is for the elderly. They are like children in a sense and pictures will be more enticing than words. Just make sure the images you choose relate to the content you write. This will also improve your SEO.

When you are asking about theme are you looking for help with choosing a Wordpress theme or a theme for bootcamp?

Wordpress theme. I'm still very new and this will be my first site.

Also, if I am not happy with the site, would you know if it's easy to change the layout (theme) and carry across all the content?

I am changing a theme soon so I don't know for sure yet .... I did here it's not so bad. Just be sure to export your work on a regular basis.

For Wordpress use a responsive theme so your site is mobile ready. Also a clean white theme without much clutter or fancy stuff so that your site will load fast. Doing these two things will help you in the long run.

ROCK ON!

Thanks brother, much appreciated! :)

You're welcome. My heritage is near 50 - 50 Polish and German and my Great Grandparents migrated to the US to flee Nazi Germany about 100 years ago. We can chat sometime.

For sure. Looking forward to it. Hey so regarding my question I'm thinking one of the following two:

http://wp-themes.com/toothpaste/
http://wp-themes.com/iconic-one/

Your thoughts would be appreciated. I'm leaning toward "toothpaste".

My dad was in the Polish army and decided to migrate after the collapse of communism, wanted to give us a better life. Funnily enough Canada was his first choice but we couldn't get the visas so we ended up Aussie :) Good enough if you ask me!

Toothpaste looks good, and I've used it before. I don't recall if it is responsive so just make sure. :-)

Cool.

try viewing this training! I hope it helps.

Will do! Many thanks!

I am intending to build a webpage which will have predominantly Australian based information, will this webpage be easily visible to Australians? Once on a premium account can

I probably don't need to reply to each person individually hey...

Hi , I live in the sunshine state.sunny42 here today You should aim your site to .com because they have more people than australia.
One of my sites get more clicks overseas than Aust.

Thank you bustervik, I have to say the response time and support is impressive. Stay cool!!!! Typical Melbourne weather here, rainy and sunny and again rainy today, top of 23 :p

My webpage is predominantly going to contain Aussie info though, will this cause an issue do you think or will still be visible if it's a .com domain? In the early stages I mean?

I am still a newbie, but in your profile you like to (fly) spread your wings. go .com then you can research while you travel the world ( on your computer)to find content for your website.

I advise setting up a .com domain name... once your information is solid and ranked.. it will be seen worldwide.. including down under :)

The more info the better! Thanks Chris for your response.

How would I go about getting the webpage ranked? The info is very much only going to be Aussie based, how will I be able to attract attention to it to have it ranked and seen worldwide?

It will not be a problem Pete. You can have an australian domain and a US readerbase. Anything is possible.

Thanks Nancy! :)

Just need to clarify though as the info on my webpage will very much be for Aussies, I doubt the US readerbase will be too interested in Australian Superannuation. Once my webpage is up and running how do I go about getting it ranked? I may be getting ahead of myself but I think I have a solid idea, the only issue being it will very much be tailored to Aussies.

If its about Australian products I would go with .com.au. BUT to get a .com.au you need an ABN last I looked (2 yrs ago) It's the content on your pages that gets ranked in Google.

The training explains all this. So if you write a review about Sunsuper superannuation than you will get ranked for those keywords etc. So when people search in Google.com.au they may find your website on sunsuper etc. The .com.au would look better than the .com to Aussies. But like I said you will need an ABN.

Awesome!! Thank you for the reply. Funnily enough I just started getting into the following lessons and you're right, it touches on my questions but you have clarified brilliantly.

Getting an ABN is something I may definitely consider in the future seeing how things go, but for now I will be content with bringing great content :p

One more question though if you have time, I think (and hope) my idea can generate a fair amount of traffic, but as you're probably aware superannuation is not necessarily a product rich environment, also I wouldn't feel right advertising non super related products. Will a site generally produced to provide information (until I can source relevant products) be able to generate revenue if it has a fair amount of traffic? (Again excuse the ignorance, this is all very new to me)

Yes. once u start getting traffic you can apply to use google adsense on ur site. so whenever someone clicks on the ad u get paid. Depends on your angle, you could also build an email list so you can get the visitors emails and you can send them info or sell products etc.
