Create a custom blog design
Tags: Better Blogger, Blog Design, WordPress Themes
Step #32 in the 101 Steps to Becoming a Better Blogger.
Create a custom blog design. Your blog is a symbol of your brand. Make it uniquely you.
I’ve tweaked the current theme alot, but there’s definitely a lot more that can be done. I’m not a coder by trade, but I do like poking around and finding new ways to make my site easier to use and better looking!
One thing that did help in customizing this current theme was enlisting the services of a graphic designer to create a custom banner and logos for the site.
If you are looking for a great designer, contact me, and I can send you a few names and contact information. It is worth it to pay $20-30-40 for logos, because after all, this is YOUR brand that you are talking about!
