Wordpress theme question

1 replies
Hi all WP gurus

I have a couple of basic questions regarding a WP theme.

Its an existing site and I'm not happy with the theme and want to change to a new theme.

The question is will the Google love it has acquired in the past month or 2 since the site went live be lost by changing to a new WP theme?

Is it possible to install a a new WP theme and have the same blog content, copy, pics etc as the old WP theme.

Thanks for any advice,

    I've got a couple dozen WP sites, but don't know if that makes me a guru or not!

    The theme you use shouldn't make any difference with your Google results. If you're still using the same keywords, or perhaps the same SEO plug-ins, your "Google love" should remain the same.

    I've also changed sites over from one theme to another throughout the years. Your content and images will remain the same. You may need to tweak the theme options a bit to get the look you like, but everything else should remain the same.

    That's one of the nifty things about using WP - you're not stuck with one theme.

    Of course - I always recommend that you back up your site before you make any changes, just to be safe. I've never had any problems, but there's always a first time!
