I hope so! Obviously depending on the “look” you are after some of these options will vary. You will still be able to change page layouts and pick how you want to display your pages.
Remember that with websites you don’t want to try to reinvent the wheel…….. The “busier” something is the less likely someone will stay on your site. Why? Think about the constant “shouting” and noise in our lives….. Everything and everyone is vying for a piece of your attention.
So, you don’t want a lot of blinking, flash, obnoxious colors, etc. It’s okay for select pages but not everywhere.
Back to the page layout. If you were to take all I showed you in the other pages and put it together, below is a snapshot of what I picked for my site layout. I will most likely change it but as you saw, there are a TON of options, you can do what you want.
So what are you waiting for? Contact me and find out what I can do for you!
Main Body

Here’s the really big advantages of a WordPress site…….. The body layout can vary page by page. You don’t get that with regular WordPress themes, templates, whatever. This is where the heavy coding and the extreme differences come into play between us and others.
You can change your layout by simply selecting the layout when you make the page……….. Crazy huh? Are you ready to be amazed with all your options? Okay, let’s go!
You can see the differences on the page examples below, you have choices.
These are two page choices you have to put content only on the right.
This is recommended for some sites because many people find it less distracting to have nothing on the left.
You can see I selected the option with 2 widgets, you can tell because it’s got the dark line around it.
Now obviously there are a couple issues, if you choose the wide page layout for the overall layout of your site then your header is a certain fixed size. So you can’t change other pages to “narrow” without having the header overlap past the “page”.
There are ways around that…… You can get the narrow page “look” but not having that effect by just making your widget areas empty for that page. I’m not sure why a person would do that but you can.
Does this seem unbelievable? To have all these options for less than a few thousand dollars? I know, it does. Be sure to read the About page and find out how it happened.
