PROFESSIONAL NICHE DESIGN

Publish Beautiful Articles That Are Easy to Read

To save you time making your articles readable, we’ve designed their layout for you. Your articles will have a clear typeface, a comfortable font size, the right amount of spacing, and clear structure.


SINGLE-COLUMN FORMAT

Post with an Image

The most popular format includes a full-width hero image with text in the middle. It has no distractions on either the left or right, making it easy for readers to focus on your writing.

Post layouts

START WITH TEXT

Post without an Image

If no hero image suggests itself, you can still publish an article that grabs readers with text, not a picture.


LEFT-SIDEBAR FORMAT

Post with Left Sidebar

You can include the blogger’s about-me section which includes an image, description, and social links. You can also add categories, tags, and other sections next to the article. A format like this lets visitors read about the author or switch to a different category. Articles with this format are still very easy to read.

Right blog theme sidebar

RIGHT SIDEBAR FORMAT

Post with a Right Sidebar

If you or your client want, the sidebar can be on the right. Customization options are important.


FONTS, LAYOUT, AND STRUCTURE

Write with Style

We carefully picked the best fonts and sizes. We also kept other factors in mind like whitespace, leading, kerning, and tracking. This is why the headlines are easy to scan and the paragraphs are easy to read. Thanks to the pre-defined structure and font selection, the publisher can focus on writing great content instead of designing the page it’s on.

Written by author widget

WRITTEN-BY FEATURE

Display the Author

It’s a good idea to let the readers know who wrote the article, especially if more than one author writes for the website. You can include a profile picture, the author’s name, and a description.

Insert Videos and Social Media Posts

You can embed your client’s videos on the website by simply linking to YouTube or Vimeo. If your client has a presence on Facebook or Twitter, you can also highlight their best social media posts. These can be liked or shared right from the website.

Embeded social posts

QUOTES/h4>

Make It Even More Readable

Use two different beautiful styles to insert and highlight quotes using a larger italic font and, optionally, attribution for the author. This makes the rest of your text more readable because it introduces extended pauses between paragraphs.

About us widget to feature authors

ABOUT-US PAGE

Introduce the Blog Writers

A great About Us page helps keep people visiting your website, gets them to like you more, and gives them a way to connect with you. It’s a great opportunity to become memorable and establish a sense of trust. This is also crucial if you want to sell anything or present yourself as an authority in the field. You can easily create a beautiful About Us page by simply adding a nice cover, describing what the blog is all about, and adding the writers’ profiles.


COMMENT PLUG-IN

Build a Loyal Audience

You can enable commenting by integrating the Disqus plugin to increase engagement. Comments can be upvoted, replied to, shared, and are easy to moderate. It allows you to capture readers and keep them coming back.

Disqus plug-in for comments


Attention grabbing navigation footer

FOOTER LAYOUT

Add a Well-structured Footer for Easier Navigation

Sometimes website visitors skip over the website’s content and end up at the bottom of the page. To help them find what they are looking for, you can insert a summary of the blog, add navigation links, provide a list of commonly-used tags, tags and add contact information.


CONTACT US FORM WIDGET

Make It Easy to Contact You

Our contact-form widget provides a fast and easy way to let website visitors contact the blog author directly from the website. You can also add more fields to the form to get more information from your visitors, like what topics are they interested in. If there are multiple authors, you can set up a contact form for each of them.

We’ve stripped away all the non-essential features present in slow, multi-purpose themes. ProteusThemes delivers speed and efficiency, using clean, high-quality code that benefits viewers and is preferred by Google’s ranking algorithms.


“I love that you don’t add anything extra that could slow down the site.”

I’ve been doing this 20 years. These templates make my job a lot easier. Especially when they are well done and well supported. I love that you stay within wp standards without adding a lot of what we don’t need or what will slow the site down. Was very easy to modify and included all that was promised. Off to look at what you have to offer for another client. Keep up the good work!
