Who the Blog & Magazine template is for

For writers, journalists and content creators whose site IS the publication. A reading-first layout: article feed, categories, about-the-author, and newsletter capture.

Make it yours

The template ships with starter articles - rewrite or replace them, keep your three main categories, and put the newsletter signup after the first article scroll. Write your about page in first person; it is the second-most-read page on any blog.

The Site Is the Publication

When writing is the product, the layout has one duty: get out of the way. Reading comfort beats visual ambition on every page that matters.

Make the article page the best page

Line length, type size, spacing and a clean top of page. Every other screen exists to deliver somebody into an article, so that is where the design effort belongs.

Categorise for readers, not for archives

A handful of sections people actually browse beats a tag cloud built from every topic you have touched. Categories, comments and SEO covers the setup.

Give readers a way to come back

An email list is the only audience you own. A quiet, well-placed signup with a clear promise about frequency outperforms an interruption every time. Growing your list covers it.

Publishing is set up through start a blog and writing posts. Consistency matters more than volume: a monthly piece that arrives beats a weekly one that stops.
