LifeStyle Pro – StudioPress Sites Theme

The LifeStyle Pro theme is a minimal eCommerce theme built for any niche. This is a shop theme, but you can disable that section if you’d just like to blog. This theme is just perfect for bloggers who just want to write without an overwhelming layout or complicated features. Content is important with this theme and I suggest you add an Autoresponder Box to help collect emails.

The homepage has 2 different menu bars, which is great if you want to display both pages and categories in the header section. Your logo image is in between these two menu bars. It looks like you can upload a long rectangle logo image, which will look stunning. If you need help creating a logo that will really stand out, I suggest using LogoNerds. It’s top quality work at an affordable price.

There is a lot of customization that you can do with this StudioPress theme. We have a few helpful tutorials in our Genesis Tutorials category. This theme does have an after the entry widget which means you can insert your autoresponder in this area or even add Google AdSense. With some customization, this theme could really be stunning. And don’t forget, you can get free advice from the StudioPress forum.
