Tired of messing with your HTML to make your website look like a professional review site? There’s a simple solution. Install WordPress to your site, then find a WordPress product review template. There are three ways to find review themes: pay for someone to make it for you, pay for a ready made theme, or find a free theme online.
If you have your own hosting, you probably already know how to install WordPress. But if you need a brief overview, here’s how to install WordPress using Fantastico. Open Fantastico from your cpanel. Then, look down the left hand side where it says blogs. The third option is WordPress. Click on WordPress, then select new installation. Choose the domain you’ll install it to, choose your user name and password, and press Install WordPress. After that, you can log into your wordpress site by going to http://yourdomain.com/wp-admin.
Once you have WordPress installed, you need to choose a theme. You can go through the WordPress site, but none of those fit well into a review style theme. You can also have a webmaster design a theme for you, but that will cost you at least $500. If you’re just starting out, that can be too much money. Instead, I advise you to search online.
You’ll find both free and paid templates online. Free is great, but most will have coding errors or not be easily customizable, so you’ll need to know HTML. If you can find a good paid template, I’d advise you to look into it. Most run about $70-$100.
However, I’ve found one I really like for much less. It’s easy to customize, looks professional, and even comes with a choice of headers. Plus the price is unbeatable. Interested? Go watch the video of it in action here.
