Improve your blog with these best WordPress themes for blogs
Blogging is one the most popular activities online – it seems that everywhere you go, and every site you visit, there’s a blog in there, somewhere. Blogging is a great way to express yourself, and put your thoughts down to share with others, and if you’re using the popular website builder and optional web hosting solution that is WordPress, you’ll know it has a plethora of themes that cater to this specific activity. We’ve selected five we feel are definitely worth a look at if you’re thinking of venturing into this weird and wonderful world. Baskerville 2 is a good theme to get your started with blogging. You can add text, images and videos with ease, and create nice looking pages, even with the standard configuration. A custom menu is located just below the header, making it effortless to subdivide your blog into easy to navigate sections. As you’d expect for a modern theme, it’s fully responsive and looks great whichever screen it’s viewed on. You can of course alter the theme to make it feel more unique to you, altering the background, changing colours, reveal the pages’ sidebar, choose from three different widgets for the footer, among others options. Baskerville 2 comes with three page templates. Galleries can be added, the header’s dimension altered, and you can also include add a site logo. Best of all, Baskerville 2 is free to use, which is perfect, especially if blogging is still a hobby for you – for now. Another free option is Hemingway. This one’s a very simple theme with only a handful of customisation features, but its purpose is to display your blog in a clean manner, offering the reader a generous amount of white space.
