There are many WordPress Themes that are advertised as SEO friendly or SEO optimized, but very few actually are search engine optimized themes. I’ve spent almost a decade working with WordPress and almost as long developing WordPress SEO themes. To date (June 2014) I haven’t reviewed a WordPress theme (not developed by yours truly :-)) that was search engine optimized anywhere near the standard of my SEO themes. I’ve been that confident in my WP themes I’ve offered up to $5,000 for the first person who finds a WordPress theme that offers all the SEO features of the themes I develop plus one more SEO feature. No one has come close to claiming a cash prize. So you think a […]

Best WordPress SEO Theme
First of all, I’d like to thank you for this great theme.
I know the SEO job – many components at the theme work wonder for the search engines ranking – so, as a satisfied customer, I recommend using this theme.
My questions –
* Do I have to buy the new version or do you send it as an update? How do I get it?
* Popularity Contest SEO Plugin doesn’t work properly nor the new popular post plugin with the theme version that I use – does the new version overcome this problem. Please advice.
* I have noticed a change you made to the font size (a good change). Have you also changed the central column width or the overall theme width? does this change go to the new version?
Please advice,

Talian Theme WordPress SEO Updates
Hi Nissam thanks for your kind words,
When I’ve fully tested Talian version 04 it will be sent out for free to all Talian version 03 customers automatically.
I’ve added some new features and need to write out detailed readme files that’s taking a while. Also need to clean up the code a bit. If I released it today it would work, but I’ll probably get a load of support requests, so holding on until I get those readme files written.
As WordPress has updated, some of the Plugins are playing up. The Popularity one works on some sites, but not others! I’ve found on a few sites if I’ve been using it for months through multiple upgrades as long as I don’t deactivate it, it works OK, but deactivate it or use it for the first time and I sometimes get an error! Been meaning to try to find an alternative that’s kept up to date, seems all the good plugins aren’t being updated!
Yes I changed the font size on Talian version 04, original Talian used fixed fonts which isn’t good for usability, so changed all fonts to fluid. I also made the theme wider, sidebars are the same, it’s as you’ve noticed the content area is wider.
What you see on this site is Talian 04 pretty much as it will be in the zip file I’ll send out (no Twitter widget on the sidebar, that’s manually added).
This is Talian 04 out the box, but with my wife creating 41 banners from Skegness images! As you can see the banner image changes as you change page or refresh. Default Talian 04 currently has 6 banner images which you can easily replace/add to or even reduce to one file (still got to explain how in the readme file).
This one I did (got a little obsessed with UK politics) has 5 unique banner images. Everything is default Talian 04.
I’m going to try my best to get the theme zip file ready this week. Might pinch a few of my wife’s banners for the theme as well :)

Hi David,
Today I passed 12,500 visitors a day with Talian version adsense/SEO 03!!
I have started working on the blog on may2009, so it’s only 7 months since – barely a toddler blog.
With so many CSS style changes I have made with version 03, I have to spend weeks moving/adapting to 04.. but it is only my fault. I couldn’t wait for the 04.
I strongly recommend readers using this theme because of it’s SEO wise (also AdSense placement, but the drawback of lacking the channels tracking made me use adsense differently).
My blog is made following many of your SEO guidance/tricks and I am grateful.
Cheers,
Ziv

Talian 05 Review
Hi David,
Thank you so much for the new Talian 05, it’s Great! You have no idea how much I have wanted this theme in different colors, so I appreciate the work you have done. It’s also nice to have the built in admin panel where making changes is so easy. Thanks again.
Best regards,
Nasma

This latest update of your SEO theme really rocks.
Thank you very much. I am putting it on my sites now.
Design -Easy to use interface to change the style and look of your website -I use my own rotating banners I create. -Why pay big money for a webdesigner when you can use a theme like this and change the images and color scheme with a simple click. The biggest mistake is to pay for webdesign and forget about SEO. This theme lets you change design colors and images to your liking.
Ads -Super Advert flexibility -I like this Clickbank integration as well as adsense flexibility.
SEO – I have used WordPress now for about five years and the code is really well written on this theme as I poke around.

Dear David, Thanks so much for creating this neat optimized theme package. I just installed my new Talian theme on 4 sites and I love it. Each site is a different color and looks slightly different because of the colored adsense ad on the left. They look great and seem to be working fine. Can’t wait for the money to start coming in!
You are appreciated.
