Thesis Review - A Premium WordPress Theme
Recently, I talked about the Affiliate Theme, which in my view is the perfect WordPress blog theme for Affiliate marketing.
After my article, I’ve received a few direct messages on Twitter where some people mentioned they were using the Thesis Theme created by Chris Pearson and Brian Clark, which is also a very powerful theme for affiliate marketing. I can attest that Thesis theme is a great theme because I use it on myblog, Cabinrentalsideas.com as you can see.
However, both themes allows you easier to create a professional blog in three simple step: download the theme, upload the files, activate the theme. That it! Very fast, especially if you don’t have HTML and CSS knowledge.
You can also customize design and look of your blog, and definitely does optimize it for search engines and give you a lot more power of your blog than the default WordPress set-up.
Thesis Vs Affiliate Theme
It clear that before you go spending your money you need know what is better for your business.
Thus, I made a quick Google search to see if there were reviews that do comparison between Thesis and Affiliate Theme.
Usually, people looking for a middle ground between a free and a unique custom theme. There are many premium themes. One of the most well-known premium themes out there is certainly Thesis, a paid-for theme that allows anyone to create many different styles and types of theme.
Thesis theme allows great flexibility and user are able to have a great control through two control panel menus. Some of main features include:
- People can select as many columns as they want, customize the width of each of these columns, and put it where they want.
- Whether you want a standard homepage, or “Features and teasers”.
- Choose the size, and type of font you want in all the different sections of the theme.
The theme also allows to choose either version within one overall theme. The SEO control is another great options that allows you to control the seo of each post.
Compared to other premium theme support, Thesis has a free support forum. You have a free liftime and the response to queries are very quick.
Here, a summary of the main features compared:
| Thesis | Affiliate Theme |
| Layout chooser | Yes | Yes |
| Layout widths | Yes | No |
| Color Picker | Yes | Yes |
| SEO | Yes | Yes |
| Easy installation | Yes | Yes |
| Change the background image | No | Yes |
| Support | Forums | Forums |
| Price | $87 lifetime upgrades | $97 no upgrades |
| Multi-use Package | $164 | $147 |
Both themes are very professional with great admin panels. The themes are hard to compare why fulfill different needs. For quick changeable websites, I prefer Affiliate Theme, but for common sites (as I said before I use Thesis on my blog cabinrentalsideas.com) then Thesis is my choices.
