How a theme affects your SEO link indexing....

Hey,

So I made this statement a few months ago at a closed door $5k workshop I ran, oddly no one here has apparently heard of it. But yes, the theme you use does dictate how many of your backlinks are indexed in Google.

Wordpress has a ceiling of 80% -> because that's how themes are built.

Depending on the theme you get a % of that 80% and I know only 2 themes that can achieve that amount (will reveal later on).

Anyway imagine for a moment your site was like a Japanese room (you know paper thin, slidey door). Well that door is your theme - free or paid, fyi paid are better but not all are equal.

So the spiders have to get through little holes in the door to reach your content but this is the average theme breakdown....

Free -> best ones achieve about 40-50%.

Paid....

Optimizepress -> Receives only 52%, this is more of a launch theme. Shouldn't be used for blogging.

FlexSqueeze -> Receives only 61%. Good for blogging but doesn't look appealing.

Thesis -> Receives 73-75%. Depends on your configuration but it takes AGES to sort this out and I should also mention it's heavily php coded and placing a skin over a thesis theme (by thesis) will drop your SEO link-ability down.

Authority Pro -> Receives 77-79% of the overall links. Yes I do use this and this is why. It's based on the thesis side of things with the exception that it is easier, faster to use, and has so many different ways to increase SEO it's crazy. For marketers -> This theme is one of the best to rank high in search engines. Every site I've used it on has rank in page 1 for the keywords I want.

Anyway if you do purchase Thesis or Authority Pro. Please do me a HUGE favor, pm me for the affiliate link or buy it through your own link.

Hope you're well and have fun with SEO.

Adil
