    Hi ExtraZeros (I love that name )

    I had a thread a couple of weeks ago asking the same thing... there were some good responses in it.

    I am going to start using the SmallBiz theme, which was suggested by someone in the thread but there are many other suggestions.

    Here's the link:

    Hope it helps!

      Small business. Og my god, there are so many.

      Go to themeforest.com or any other premium theme seller, and you will find what you are looking for.

    I have been using the StudioPress Genesis framework for developing small business sites. This is an extremely powerful system that offers incredible SEO formatting built into the theme.

    You can say good-bye to the All-in-One plugin and it's weekly updates.

    The developer's license is the best way to go... it will cost you a few bucks but it just keeps on giving. They have a very active forum for members that can help you solve problems or tweak the theme.

    Check it out... you just can't go wrong, especially if you know a little css, you can create some very different looks. There are new child themes released all the time which just keeps expanding your theme arsenal.

      You could check out the Studio Press themes like George07 recommended. They are high quality. You could look into some of the themes from Ithemes, which are also good.

      There's another theme called Flexibility which is excellent. It's just like the name suggests, very flexible. You're able to choose how many columns you'd like and where you'd like them to appear. You can also change the colors and do other tweaks to the theme without going into the code. This can all be done within the WP control panel.

      All these themes are paid, but it's worth it if you're creating WP sites for clients.

      Hi George, I'm especially interested in building some sites off of the Genesis theme. Can you recommend someone that can build custom themes using the framework? Or do you know of someone who can modify the themes? Appreciate any feedback you might have.

      Cheers,

      Jeff

    I've been using the Socrates theme. I can setup a site in about 20 minutes that looks professional. Then I add in my clients page content and you have a nice eye pleasing website that is customizable by the client if need be too.
