Does anyone have any suggestions on the best wordpress themes to use?
Here is one that has been recommended to me before:

Just a word of caution :
When you have a custom theme / plugin .. please make sure thing work as its expected because some plugins / themes wont play nice with each other .

You could take a look at WooThemes' large list of quality WordPress themes, as well as the ever-popular Thesis theme.
Find WooThemes demos here, some are even free: http://www.woothemes.com/themes/
Find Thesis here (not free): http://diythemes.com/

We use studiopress themes and themeforest for specialty themes. Studiopress provides us the best value for clients as we got 50 themes fir $350...themeforest has been the best for specialty themes.....
Hope this helps.

And make sure to have some sort of security plugin. -
Nathan, I'd say that WordPress in general is a good platform for SEO, regardless of which theme you use.
I use several of Brian Gardener's StudioPress themes which work very well for making an attractive site, but I'd say it is the content you produce and what you do with it that matters more than the theme. I've used Brian's themes for many years and always been happy with them.
We use the Platinum SEO WordPress plugin which make it easy to get things working nicely and have spent time with generally getting things to be Google friendly.
I'd say your content is still the main thing though (followed by outreach to the community around your clients and business) - if that is good, everything else seems to fall into place.

What is the best markup for testimonials?
These are testimonials that our staff have collected themselves, so I'm unsure about using a block quote and citing a source, since these testimonials are original content, not references from another website. I just need to place the quote, the author's name, and, in some cases, the author's city. Any recommendations?

What is the best way to handle annual events on a website?
Every year our company has a user conference with between 300 - 400 attendees. I've just begun giving the event more of a presence on our website. I'm wondering, what is the best way to handle highlights from previous years? Would it be to create an archive (e.g. www.companyname.com/eventname/2015) while constantly updating the main landing page to promote the current event? We also use an event website (cvent) to handle our registrations. So once we have an agenda for the current years event I do a temporary redirect from the main landing page to the registration website. I don't really like this practice and I feel like it might be better to keep all of the info on the main domain. Wondering if anybody has any opinions or feedback on that process as well. Just looking for best practices or what others have done and have had success with.

Best way to handle Spanish/English WEBSITE
Hey guys, How are you doing? I have a website (www.aceromart.com ) in which the primary language is Spanish. The company is oriented toward the Mexican Audience. However, recently we are dealing with many U.S companies. Also, we want to be included in the Yahoo Directory and several other directories which demand a U.S version of the website. So i want to have a U.S version of the website. My ecommerce is based in the NETWORK Solutions platform and has around 1,000 products and pages. What is the best way to include an English version of the website. Ive seen some pages using the Google traslate tool, which only traslates the text. Hope to hear some of your ideas, Regards,

What is the best way to point newly built website on new domain name to the original more well known domain?
Live website on abc.com domain is being totally redone and moved to a new platform. to facilitate full testing and compliance, the new look and content was built on a different url - xyz.com for example. Now that all content is approved and testing, we want people visiting the abc.com domain to see the xyz.com website without necessarily redirecting abc.com to xyz.com What is the best to do this? Thanks all

SEO while designing the website and continuous SEO
What's the difference between SEO while designing/developing a website (ie, setting up a website so it is crawled by search engines) and the SEO that people talk about that needs to be viewed analyzed and changed all the time? I don't have a ton of money to spend on SEO right now but I do want to make sure my website is set up by an SEO expert (if possible) so when I do have money to spend on SEOthe website is set up properly to work with more advanced forms of SEO. I guess I don't understand where you can draw the line (if forced due to money constraints) between SEO in the beginning and continued SEO. What do I need to look for with SEO and the design of my website. How do I get some type of SEO without breaking the bank??

For a new business which would be the best domain name?
I'm starting a new business selling Whitby Jet and I want to buy the best domain name which will help me in the search engines, I want to use the keywords in the domain name because it think it will help when people link to the website, but whitbyjet.com and whitbyjet.co.uk have both been taken. I could be wrong I think .com is generally thought of as the best and I don't really like the idea of .net or .org So maybe I might have to choose the third word which tends to make the doamin a little bit longer like whitbyjetjewlery.co.uk. Any suggestions would be greatly received.
