Wow, I’ve seen an increase in traffic from Google recently here at Techie She and it must be because of my new theme, the Sixteen Nine Theme from StudioPress, because it’s the only one that I’ve change around here.
In my post, Techie She Now Uses the Sixteen Nine Theme from StudioPress, I shared the following which was derived from a blog post from the StudioPress blog:
… the Sixteen-Nine child theme incorporates the essential web standards like HTML5 and schema.org for a faster, more secure, more flexible, and more findable WordPress site.
Lo and behold, that Genesis framework magic worked on my blog!
Just today, I discovered that my site is ranking third for the phrase “Sixteen Nine Theme StudioPress” with StudioPress at number one and the theme’s developer, Brian Gardner, at the second spot.
Sixteen Nine Theme and StudioPress work like magic with Mr. Google!
I am not sure what other phrases I’m getting some nods from Mr. Google for him to send visitors my way but this recent development is so inspiring. I will change the themes of my other blogs to one of the themes from StudioPress as well.
How about you, do you think switching to another theme might help your blog? Care to share your thoughts in the comments section?
I am also planning to switch to Genesis with Sixteen Nine theme…. one question:
How is your search engine traffic now.. did you see any long term improvement?
Hi Dinsan. After I switched themes, my page rank jumped from PR1 to PR3. In less than a week, I already saw changes in my traffic. You can read about it here https://techieshe.com/2013/sixteen-nine-theme-gives-techie-she-a-nod-from-google/.
