Best Wordpress theme for blogging
-
Hi all,
What is the best Wordpress theme for a professional DM blog? I am looking for something minimalistic where I can add my personal profile and have articles nicely listed, potentially grouped within categories.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

"My Blog Tech" for me is the best version, in fact looks very nice, one thing of themeforest, that I don't like, is all the themes looks the same, for me is very hard to choose one, all have excellent color combination or font combination, but if you have some experience in 2 or seconds can recognize it.
Thats wht I prefer "My Blog Tech" simple and effective
Note. Keep me updated with progress of your website will be a pleasure if I can help you.

Hi Moe,
Wooow! It's really beautiful and it looks incredibly professional! So professional that it makes me feel I might not be ready for something that cool. I will need to see how I can simplify it as most demos come very rich and I would like to start very plain and simple. Thanks so much for your suggestion!

Thanks Roman,
You are right, Pluto is really nice, but I am not sure if it would work for a DM blog. It looks awesome for recipes, possibly would for fashion or interior design. I think Writing lacks something but Newspaper looks like it offers many options. I will definitely consider this.
What do you think about MyBlog? https://demo.mythemeshop.com/s/?theme=MyBlog
Thanks.

Avada theme is a really comprehensive one. It has been used for more than a few years which is really nice when you're looking for support as most question will have been already answered. It works very well with Wordpress and comes integrated with page builders and sliders.
The reason why I also really like it is because you can install your favorite demo, and just work over the existing content rather than starting from scratch, but even then with fusion page builder it takes a few minutes to build a page layout with drag and drop. Also, once you install the theme you'll basically have instruction videos with-in the theme settings for most set-up tasks or questions.
I recommend checking out the demos so you can understand the features available with in.

Ok this is just my personal opinion on themeforest
Newspaper
https://demo.tagdiv.com/select_demo/select_demo_newspaper
has many options but was created for big publishers so in my case is the best option
for a personal blog but always use for project and clientsWriting Blog

Blog hasn't ranked since reposting.
Hey Moz fam! I had a blog that was doing pretty well for the target keyword. Unfortunately, to make a long story short, we had an image in it we weren't supposed to so I unpublished it for a few days while we got that sorted out. Since republishing (with all the same content) it has not gotten a single impression. I inspected the URL and it is totally eligible but nothing in the way of organic traffic. Any ideas on how I can recover?

Updating a Business Blog Article - Old or New Published Date
There are a few business blogs that I'm currently updating - include more details, information, case studies, statistics etc. The blog was originally published in September of 2016. Once I make the changes, do I keep the same original date or do I change the date to the day that i've uploaded the new information? Example:

Original Published date: September 2016
Updated Blog: June 2017. What date should the blog display? Thank you.0 -
My Guest Blog: Still A Good Link Building Resource?
In an effort to build some links, we want to really work on improving our blog content and exposure. We want to write two quality posts per week, and submit 1 quality guest post every 1-2 weeks. However, we're not sure how to go about submitting guest posts or who to submit them to? I found an all article from SEOmoz http://moz.com/blog/4-valuable-link-building-services but it's from 2010. Is myguestblog still a good source? Are there better ways of doing it? Also, is ever advisable to pay to submit a post? Some of the legal blogs (we're a law firm) have this option, but that strikes me as spammy or low quality links. Just to reiterate, we are striving to write high-quality useful content audiences will find beneficial, not just junk or salesmanship. If it takes longer than a week to write posts like that, that's fine. We just really need some specific advise on who we should be submitting our guest posts to and who we should avoid. Thank you all so much for any advice or suggestions, Ruben

Best Websites to help discover Topics
Hi I know I can use Twitter and latest posts on Google & Blogs, but I was wondering what are the best tools at the moment to use if you are looking to write about up to the minute information about a certain topic. Say the topic is London, is there a website or tag cloud to understand what people are saying about London right now? Anything better than Social Mention?

What is the Best Practice for External Links?
We are currently in the process of reviewing our site on a number of fronts, and part of that involves adding quality content to our product category pages where necessary. Our practice so far has been to add relevant content, and in this content externally link to a couple of relevant, related sites for that category (avoiding the use of keywords we are trying to rank for). Should we be doing this (externally linking)? And, if so, should these external links be NoFollow? So far, we have seen mixed results for our efforts.

Second Blog on the Same Site? Best SEO Practice
I would like to start up another blog which has more of a "technical" topic coverage vs my regular blog, which appeals more to non-techie business folks. If the goal is to drive traffic ultimately to the main site, should I do this second blog on a different domain, a subdomain, or try to incorporate it as a separate-but-equal blog on the same domain as the currrent one? What would you do?

Sub Domains or Multiple Domains? Which is a better way to go for blogs?
We just can’t decide what the answer is, particularly from an SEO perspective. We want to run multiple blogs on different categories, please assist on deciding should we go with different blog domains or create subdomains for each category.

How often should I write a blog post?
I'm sure this has been asked before but I've searched for it in the Q&A Forum and couldn't find any relevant answer. I was thinking that a weekly post would suffice for my blog because the audience isn't one which would be checking frequently + there aren't very many new developments in the industry I'm in that would necessitate more than that. However, I was told that if I can't blog consistently 2-3 times per week, I really shouldn't start a blog, as it would need that much posting. Thoughts on this?
