At Simply Creative, we work exclusively with self-hosted WordPress blogs using the Genesis framework. Why Genesis? Because it’s extremely flexible, search engine optimized, and because Mashable calls Genesis the “best of the best” among premium frameworks. It truly is a great foundation for your blog. In fact, we believe in it so much, it’s what we use for our own site!
Custom Blog Design | Starting at $2,500

- WordPress installation or update to most recent version
- Genesis framework installation
- Custom header design
- Custom layout (1, 2 or 3 column)
- Custom background and graphics
- Favicon
- Social media icons (for Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
- Ad space

- Installation of up to 5 WordPress plug-ins
- Installation of up to 10 sidebar widgets

Genesis Child Theme Customization | Starting at $500
If a custom blog design is not in your budget, you might consider personalizing an existing StudioPress child theme.
Please visit StudioPress and select the child theme that best suits your needs. You do not need to purchase the theme yourself as we have already purchased the Pro Plus package and have a license for all StudioPress themes.
You are also welcome to check out the StudioPress Theme Marketplace. However, we do not have licenses for these themes, so you would be responsible for any fees. They are very reasonably priced though, generally around $24.95.
Your theme customization will include:
- WordPress installation or update to most recent version
- Genesis framework and theme installation
- Custom header design (does not include character illustrations)
- Stylesheet changes (fonts, links, colors, etc.) to match your header design
- Simple background – solid color, polkadots, stripes, textured (samples will be provided)
- Installation of up to 5 sidebar widgets
This does not include any WordPress training, but that can be purchased separately if needed.
