Please Recommend some Drupal & Joomal Themes

The Expert · 08-25-2009, 04:42 PM

I'm going to create a few Joomla sites and Drupal Sites in my niche. I've always worked wordpress, but I am mixing it up as these sites will be part of a blog farm.

The sites themselves will really only be blogs and won't be taking advantage of any of the "deeper" elements of these platforms.

Can anyone suggest some good themes/skins for these platforms that are SEO friendly?

If that's the case, why in the world are you thinking of using them? Just for something new and incredibly frustrating to do?

The reason is to try and hide my digital footprint when building the blog farm.

Everything I read says you need to be as random as possible when building these things which includes using multiple hosting companies (in multiple countries), using different themes for your wordpress sites, and using different CMS systems completely. Other things include having different writers create content for the various sites so they are all written in a different "voice".

As the sites will only be used as blogs, I need only figure out how to configure them as a blog, and find the right SEO plugins. I don't need any of the extra features...so I'm not too worried about the learning curve.

Truth be told, these blog farms are not all that easy to run. Especially the ones on the second level that point directly to your money site. I dunno how they can be called "farm" sites when then end up being complete sites in their own rite if you are having content created and not scraping it.
