Best Wordpress theme for a tech review site/blog?

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by sirile, Jan 3, 2017.

    Good day all,

    I am planning to make a content website where I post 3-5 articles every week in the tech and gaming peripherals/news niche with Adsense and Amazon as an income source.

    I am looking for some themes that would suit a tech blog, preferably as cheap as possible.

    Currently, I am hesitating between these two themes (Please let me know if links are not allowed):
    ListMag ($29): http://anthemes.com/themes/listmagwp/
    It looks like it has a lot of features and it has a lot of Ad slots which might be handy for Adsense conversions.

    Benavente (Free):https://www.orange-themes.com/benavente/
    This one is free and looks like it has just as many features as ListMag, only that the footer has the theme credit on it.

    Do any of you have a theme to suggest?

    Thank you.

    EDIT: I want to ask apart from that, can you add sidebar and in-article ads on whichever theme there is as long as there is HTML support and custom widget support?

    REHub Theme on Themeforest might be a good solution for you. It's one of the best I've used so far.
    Costs $39 and excellent value for money.
    Good luck.

    Thanks for the suggestion, I really like the RePick child theme inside of REHub, I do however wonder how well it would integrate with Adsense ads placed on the sides etc and if you could use it as a news website apart from just being a review site.

    Right now there is also Magneto: http://bk-ninja.com/magneto_game/homepage-2/ that I really like, it's $29 and looks like it can do the job but I wonder if the pages are too cluttered and won't convert much.

    Actually there is no perfect example of good or best. Your choice & personality can be different from other. But Ramble Theme from themeforest can be a good solution.

    The best and unique themes for tech news websites are:
    • Newsmag PRO
    • MagOne
    • MagXP
    • Flex Mag etc.
    You can search coupons to get some discount on these themes.
