• SEO Friendly WordPress Themes

• 21 December 2011 by Dean 4 Comments

I’ve culled the crap to present you with a few very nice themes that are setup for great on-page SEO.

After working on this post and reviewing many self-proclaimed SEO Friendly WordPress Themes, it’s obvious that many theme creators tout “SEO Ready” and “SEO Friendly”, however most fail to deliver.

6 SEO Friendly Premium WordPress Themes

The 6 best themes during round one of research had to meet some very specific criteria by a very harsh judge (me).

All of these themes have good on-page SEO. The organisation of the page’s code does a good job of presenting your content to the search bots and they all have good heading tag (H1, H2 etc) structure to rank for the right words.

Each of these SEO Friendly WordPress Themes is $35. It’s a small price to pay for a quality theme enabling you to make a unique site (all have a huge range of customisation options). You just can’t get this kind of thing with a free theme.
