However, I don't currently use any gravatars, so that would be something different for me to try out and see if it would actually help. My blog is more for bloggers and webmasters, where I give out free blogging tips and an articles. My web traffic is good, but I am still lacking commentators, at least non spamming ones. Branding is a must, but I believe there is more to it, especially marketing.. I have a custom WordPress theme, logo and have a favicon, which helps set my blog a part from others.

The better looking package the more and easier you will attract people and sell your product/service. I've seen some horrible tasting candies being sold instantly just because of the packages. I guess some of you know what I mean. Look at it as a package to the product I would say. The better looking package the more and easier you will attract people and sell your product/service.

Something I have neglected to do. I totally forgot to make my blogs unique. Now that you mention it, they have all been rather boring to me. So I can only imagine how it was for a visitor seeing a basic standard theme. I am off to get a custom theme and a great logo. Great ideas on branding your blog. Something I have neglected to do.

People can buy a premium theme and customize it to make it entirely unique. At last that is far more affordable than hiring a designer from scratch. However, please don't forget about strategy, content and traffic. You can always revamp you theme as you go, don't let it hold you back for too long. It may be another reason to procrastinate and postpone writing content. I agree, every blog should convey its own brand effectively.

I have grabbed some amazing designs for $20 or less. My latest for $5! They are uncoded but when you add coding into the total cost it is still $60 or less. Which I think is amazing for a custom design. For themes I hit the DigitalPoint Forum. I have grabbed some amazing designs for $20 or less. My latest for $5!
