Custom WordPress Archive Page? Here’s Why to Use It
Tags: WordPress, WordPress advice, WordPress tips
A couple of weeks ago I decided to create a custom WordPress archive page for this blog (my archives). This wasn’t just one of those moments when I had too much time and desperately needed something to kill it with.
This change had a purpose, and in this post I’m going to tell you exactly why you too should consider creating a custom WordPress archive page for your site.
The problem with WordPress
At some point, every online business owner realizes that WordPress wasn’t primarily designed for entrepreneurs to be the base for their websites.
I mean, essentially, there’s nothing wrong with WordPress and you’re surely better off using it than investing in a custom made system. However, you have to be aware of one thing: WordPress was first designed to run traditional blogs.
WordPress Advice of the Month: How to Replace 4 Great Plugins With One That’s Even Better

As I’m sure you know by now, stumbling upon a quality piece of WordPress advice is neither easy nor happens frequently. Furthermore, actually going out there, surfing the web and actively searching for such advice is not possible either because (usually) we won’t be able to tell it apart when we see it … the “you don’t know what you don’t know” issue.
Hold on, let’s just stop here for a moment. Why am I talking purely about WordPress? Simply because it’s a platform that I’ve always recommended for every online business designer/creator due to its ease of use and highly adjustable nature. And since I’m recommending it that much I feel that good WordPress advice is well worth sharing as it can be highly valuable for everyone out there applying it.

Now let me just get straight down to business and tell you what the advice is, and why did I even bother to throw out 4 perfectly good plugins and substitute them with this new one.
WordPress Custom Page Template – How to Create It
Tags: WordPress, WordPress advice, WordPress custom page, WordPress custom pages, WordPress tips
WordPress is a really important piece of software for me. Probably for every online business creator. One of the reasons why it’s so popular is the fact that the platform is extremely easy to use, even for a non-tech-savvy person.
Even though WordPress is great, some aspects of it can still be adjusted to give us the maximum of their potential. That’s the case with standard WordPress pages.
In case you’re not that familiar with WordPress; there are two main types of content you can create in WordPress: posts and pages.
Posts are the primary vehicles of blogging. Each entry is organized by date with the newest one at the top of the blog. Pages are more traditional elements. They are, well, pages. You can create them using the exact same interface but they have a different purpose.

Contrary to what you might think this series is not dead yet. And I don’t see it dying in the near future. The thing is, as I said before, that good, really good, genuine WordPress advice is hard to find.
(By the way, check out the previous episodes if you haven’t already: Why Free WP Themes are EVIL, Best WordPress Hacks of All Time.)
“You need to backup your database” … “You need to use nofollow links for WordPress SEO” … “You need to read Problogger” … “You need to install a custom made theme” – those are all general, obvious, therefore not that valuable.
But every once in a while you will stumble upon a real gem…
10 Places Where You Can Get Quality WordPress Themes
Tags: WordPress, WordPress advice, WordPress themes, WordPress tips
Let me be honest with you. I was never a fan of premium WordPress themes. Unnecessary expense – I used to think. Then I had the opportunity to check out some themes by WooThemes. And boy, I was in for a surprise…
I liked them very much (I still do), and I even joined their affiliate program. Until recently WooThemes was my no.1 source of themes. BUT a couple of weeks ago I was asked to write a review on another theme store – ThemeFuse. Long story short, I was in for a surprise here as well.
Here’s the thing, WooThemes sets the bar high, but ThemeFuse somehow manages to set it even higher. In my opinion this is how WordPress themes are mean to be. Check out my guest post at Graphic Design Blender to find out what’s so cool about ThemeFuse.
