Pro Blog Design

Ever thought you could make some improvements to your RSS feed? Like letting it cover more (or less!) content? Or adding some extra details onto the end of your posts?

In this post, I’m going to show you how to do exactly that.

B2Bbloggers.com is a B2B marketing site that features a lot of guest posts on B2B marketing, and highlights a lot of content from around the niche.

We’re going to take a look at the site’s design today, critique it, and work out how we could improve it. As we do hopefully you’ll learn to apply this same methodology to your own site.

We’ll be working through this design as a case study, redesigning each section along the way, so you get to see each item as we rework it, including the full before and after design.

Over on PliablePress, we’ve released our newest WordPress theme. MyBiz is designed for modern businesses who don’t want the “faceless-company” approach that customers are used to receiving.

It’s vibrant, colorful (You even get 5 color schemes to choose from!) and yet still professional and well organized. Most of all, we’ve put an extreme amount of care into the homepage, giving you 3 different ways to ensure your best content is highlighted and that your visitors go to the pages you want them to see.

There has been another GPL storm going on in the WordPress world in the past few days. Yep, again.

I don’t normally make a comment on them, but given that I’m directly involved with it now through PliablePress themes (All of our themes have to come with some sort of license, right?), it seems time to finally step in.

Anyone following me on Twitter will already know this by now, but our big project, PliablePress, went live around 24 hours ago!

And it’s been great! It’s been crazy and I’ve been chasing things around everywhere and I meant to have this post published, well, 24 hours ago, but all of that aside, it’s been great.

We’ve had loads of great reactions to the designs, and even our first happy customers!

In this post I want to show you what we’ve done so far, share some videos of the framework in action, and offer you a discount if you want to become a customer!

(This is more of a personal post than normal. If that’s not your thing, sorry, but at least I warned you!)

My name’s Michael Martin, and I’m the person behind Pro Blog Design. If you’ve ever emailed in, tweeted, or left a Facebook message (or most likely, even if you’ve just left a comment here!) then you’ve talked to me before.

Last week, I broke the news that we’re releasing premium WordPress themes in 2 weeks from now.

Today, I want to talk to you about the framework we’ve built for all our themes to run on (and all of your themes too!).

When I created this framework, I had very specific ideas about what I wanted. This is the framework that I would want to use, but it’s by no means perfect. Nothing is, so I’d really love to hear what you think of it at the end.
