Wordpress Doesn't Have to Be A Blog! 

Your horizons become limitless the instant you realize this. If you look under the hood, Wordpress is a powerful content management blogging platform for three main reasons:
  • It was built for SEO.
  • Unlike Joomla, it uses clean code, minimal clutter and orderly CSS, making it load faster while using minimal resources on your server...regardless of how big the site gets.
  • It has dozens of free, professional-caliber plugins already available.
If only it weren't built for blogging...

That's where the magic of the magazine-style theme comes in! Break away from the standard blog's 'look and feel,' and decorate your home page with auto-updating modules displaying your recent additions per category - drop in some AdSense or Adbrite ads, make your header and footer more effective, and you're on your way to a modern and effective website with an attractive, organized newspaper layout.

Best of all, you barely have to do a damn thing, as the hard work is already done for you through the theme itself.

How to Turn Wordpress into a Magazine Style CMS 

There are few options for turning your default Wordpress setup into a magazine style format. Additionally, there's no talk of a "Wordpress CMS" in the near or distant future, either. I've found the best resolve to be a premium (that means "not free") theme called Wordpress Revolution Theme. Sometimes, "you get what you pay for" holds true, certainly in the realm of free Wordpress themes that get corrupted with future Wordpress updates, or are poorly scripted and display an annoying quirk that may take time to figure out. This would be manageable for some personal blog that I don't care much for, but not for a serious site I'm looking to make money from. Since I run a large site and have no intention of adding to my daily stress, I gave Wordpress Revolution Theme a try.

PhotobucketCreated specifically for people looking to use Wordpress as a CMS or website rather than a blog, the Wordpress Revolution Theme family of themes applies a professional interface complete with a magazine style home page, to Wordpress.

Best of all, the CSS stylesheet is the most organized thing I've ever seen, truly to be appreciated by any Type-A personality webmaster. It's as easy as applying any other template to Wordpress, and works flawlessly - regardless if you're starting a new site, or changing an old site's design.

Revolution Theme: It's Got the Look 

The 6 flavors of Wordpress Revolution Theme include Revolution, News, Sport, Magazine, Tech, and the new Pro Business. Although each theme might seem to be geared toward a certain subject, they can be edited to fit with any niche or topic you want (i.e., "Sport" theme can be used for a history or science themed site, if you wanted...it doesn't have to be used for Sports).

Each theme is professionally designed to fool anyone unknowing that they're actually looking at a Wordpress site, and not a custom coded CMS! Take a look at some screenshots of the Wordpress Revolution Theme below:

A Magazine Theme for Your Site...or Your Clients! 

Wordpress Revolution Theme offers both a single license and multi-user license. The single license allows you to use the theme on a single site, as stated in Revolution's terms of use. The multi-user license allows you unlimited usage on as many sites as you wish. Develop and mass produce Revolution Theme Wordpress sites, en-masse - especially with the Revolution Developer's Package!
