Choosing The Right Template


I once reviewed one of the blogs that berNiche guitar strap used but the template-based magazine (hopefully not reading this). Nothing really ... depending on the tastenya Admin. The problem is, whether this is suitable in the eyes of others. Blogs are not just for our own views as admin but also for those who acted as a guest.

For non-commercial blogs like me, the selection of free templates that you can do given that it unilaterally is not intended to moneytise maybe even for your own special.

Let us ignore the non Moneytize ... we are talking about commercial bloggers.

I just want to share tips and tricks on choosing a template.

Remember your good
Ask yourself, what would my theme stretcher? Is Money Fresh $ _ $, Blog Tutorial, Guitar Cord, Galleries & screenshoot or another. Do not use a theme that is not connected like a good guitar cable but using a template with portfolio style. If the code string guitar with a good guitar. If you are affiliated with Amazon and reseller template model, if the template template gallery gallery either.

Comment Notification Sign
While visiting the gallery, such as bloggers or dzignine.com zoomtemplate.com, the bottom of the template usually contains a comment. We can not say if the template does not look good without comment, or a template that many komentarya that's good. Consider the contents of incoming comments. They were angry, grateful, or denounced even ask?

I like this analysis:

- Comments that contain a sense of gratitude, it means that the spirit is up to the author to thank him, or he is dying and in need of such design or even worse ... he blogwalking. This will not make a reference to remember you do not need it as well.

- Comments censures, anger, etc. in the blood. Predicted if the template is a lot of problems. No pass or cross-browser designya spread ... somehow. This is what you make reference. When you do not need to be taken.

- Comments asking. These commentators do not understand having read the tutorial from the designers as well or because the tutorial does not exist? Some templates do have a fairly complicated installation instructions. Usually this is a complex template-based magazine or a portfolio that uses jquerry and mootools. If you are unsure, do not be retrieved.

Tested In Major Browsers
Make sure the template you want / use are tested on major browsers such as Mozilla FF 3 and above, Opera 10, all kinds of Chrome, Safari all the family, and most importantly, IE 7-8. IE family the most attention you should pay to remember that he usually destroys the template display.

"If you create a template / theme in any form for as beautiful as possible, but it still looks neat and legible even in the worst web browsers. Because we will never know what web browsers visitors use, and we certainly can not insist. "

This process can be regarded as the most important process in exploring the gallery template. Although it looks beautiful in the eyes of Mozilla FF but in IE if the family spread, not to be taken. This can only damage your reputation as a professional blogger.

SEO
Notice also in terms SEOnya. Is placement of tags has been done perfectly. This phase is called the semantic structure. There is one interesting device that you can use to analyze the design templates SEO friendly. Her name is Raven. There was a trial version ^ loh. ^

Size
When downloading, see sizenya. I do not recommend you to use an XML template file sizes greater than 50KB. Do not see the size when downloading. Sometimes the file you downloaded bersize authornya great because a lot of inputs (* could have been a stone). So if you want to see the original size, extract the first RAR file / zip file and look for XML. If the file over 50KB XMLnya bersise should not be used. But this is only a suggestion lho. Everything depends on you.

Ok .. so first. When not busy talking with Google Adsense probably I will write about "How to Create a Professional Blogger Newbie Visible"
