A beginner’s Guide On How To Create A Blog- Installing A beautiful Wordpress Theme

This is the part 03 of our ” Beginner’s guide to create a blog and make money blogging” series. If you have missed our previous lessons, please get it from here.

I cannot beleive why some of the blogs in Blogosphere looks really boring and ugly when they can very easily install a beautiful theme and spice it up. The only answers I can think of is either they do not know how to install a quality wordpress theme or they do not know where to find the best designs.

This post will give answers to both the questions so your blog will get a real pro look from the very beginning.

1. Best Wordpress themes available.

2. How To install a theme for your blog.

Your blog can get the look of any of the previews given here. Get the feeling of the theme by clicking the ” Demo” link. If you like the theme you can download it and later in this article I will give you step by step instructions on how to install it.

Thesis wordpress theme

Many bloggers say that this is the best wordpress theme ever to hit the market. You can start with any of the Free themes I have included here. But if you have $87 to spare I strongly advice you to use Thesis from the beginning. Many of the top blogs are already using it and this investment will prove it’s worth by giving you the best SEO experience and easy customization options.

How To install a theme for your blog.

1. Download the theme zip file to your desktop.

2. Extract it using winzip or winrar.

3. Upload the extracted folder to your themes directory using ftp.

public_html -> wp-content -> themes
You can very easily handle FTP using Filezila.

4. Once you successfully uploaded a theme folder to your themes directory, it will appear on your wordpress admin panel.

Appearance -> Themes
Or in old wordpress versions it is Design -> Themes

You can just click on the theme you want to apply and select ” Activate”. Not too hard is it?

Since you have the chance of creating such beautiful blogs very easily, why don’t you create a blog today. You will have the bragging rights of having an awesome blog and you will make plenty of money operating it.

Let me remind you once again about what I am planning to cover in this ” Create a blog and make money blogging” series.

Send me the links to your newly created blogs so I can feature all of them in one of my future post. If you still haven’t made up your mind to start your own blog, It is about time you highly consider doing it. The world does not stop and wait till you decide to become successful. Do it Today and Do it NOW !!!

Some really nice themes you have found, is the theme for this site built on a free theme or is it fully custom made?

Most of my sites are based on free themes with slight modifications.

Adam Railing Posted on April 28, 2009 at 7:17 am

I;m following all the articles, the themes are really nice.

Cool themes you have here. Too bad I use blogger. Could never figure out wordpress. I guess I”m just a noob.

The theme here reminds me of the Mine Ride at Cedar Point. Pretty Cool!

@ Build Residual Income
It is about time you move in to wordpress. Why build and promote a site owned by someone else. Your blogger site is owned by Google. Not you !!!

Wow, very useful thanks. My blog needs a serious makeup…

Lee, Blogger's Workshop Posted on April 30, 2009 at 10:43 am

Thanks for the informative post. Thesis is one of my favorite themes, because it is very versatile and fairly easy to use. I also like Affiliate Theme (I think the same folks who made Thesis made that one) and FLexx Theme.

Blogger’s Workshop uses Flexx Theme, so I guess I’d have to say that one’s my favorite. It’s a bit pricey… but if you’re going to create multiple money making blogs, it’s worth the investment, I think.

Theme which you have shown in this posts of yours are free or premier ones. As they are really great.

As your posts is related with internet than I think you should also use Sphinn. Believe me this can give you good traffic.

There has been some amazing development work with WordPress themes over the last couple of years. The new magazine-style themes are just the tip of the iceberg. I’m excited to see what will be released over the next year. With so many great themes, it’s hard to stick with one for more than a year before you get a “wandering eye.”

Shimano Fishing Posted on May 3, 2009 at 8:27 pm

Wow… so many themes to choose from! I’m happy, but overwhelmed…
