Best WP Theme for a single product + Affiliate + Woocommerce

Hi Warriors,

I'm about to start to build my site which is essentially selling a single, physical product.

For that reason I want to have just a single "sales" page with a "Buy it now" button at the bottom and then I thought Woocommerce could be used to handle the sale (sold through 2CO).

I will have a couple of other pages (Privacy Policy, FAQs etc) but don't think I really need a big structure an menu system like in my favorite WP theme (U-Design).

I will also need to plug in an affiliate system so that I can provide people with affiliate URLs etc.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I would suggest any theme developed by WooThemes, but i specifically like Memorable and Sliding. WooCommerce will definitely work well here.

    For Affiliates there is the Ambassador Affiliate Program Integration by WooThemes itself. Besides this there is also the AffiliateWP plugin which works great on EDD. I think it should work well for WooCommerce too.

      That's some great advice, thank you.

    Wish I had registered here earlier - this might not help you at this point:


    A theme called "Responsive" is one of the number one WooCommerce themes and I highly recommend it. It's clean, mobile-friendly, easy to edit without CSS work etc.

    Really the best theme for simple/small sites with few products. You'll still need to disable a few annoying things like comments (easy) - and you may need to apply some custom CSS (which is doable in the "theme settings" tab once 'Responsive' has been activated) -

    I for instance removed all comment panels (as they still display even with comments disabled), removed some unnecessary breadcrumb links AND resized the "quantity" changer in the Cart so that it doesn't look squished on small mobile screens : WITH:

    Code:
    #respond{
    display:none;
    }
    .post-meta{
    display:none;
    }
    
    .woocommerce #content .quantity input.qty, .woocommerce .quantity input.qty, .woocommerce-page #content .quantity input.qty, .woocommerce-page .quantity input.qty {
    width:20px;
    }
    
    .woocommerce #content .quantity, .woocommerce .quantity, .woocommerce-page #content .quantity, .woocommerce-page .quantity {
    width:35px;
    }

      Will be starting the site tomorrow so your post was in time and very useful! I like that theme and almost used it once before.

    When thinking about selling a one product only you have a lot to learn from Tim Ferriss who mastered the " muse " concept.

    a few gold snippets can be found under:
