You may find it a bit astonishing, to know that I’m moving to Genesis Thesis Theme. As of the bloggers / marketers are dropping thesis theme and moving to Genesis Theme. I had a hard time choosing between Thesis Theme & Genesis Theme, but finally I made the decision to go with Thesis.
It doesn’t mean that I don’t use Genesis (or don’t recommend it), I do use it for most of my niche sites and will be using it for my new business project too, that I’m working on from last 2 months.
To give you a quick answer why I moved to thesis, is because I wanted to learn more about the theme frameworks.
Thesis Theme Framework
Before it, I’ve been using the Zilla Press theme designed by Orman Clark. It worked really well and is great theme for a small business blog. Another reason for moving to thesis is I like theme framework more than I like $30 / $35 themes.
Thesis Theme is really amazing and sleek theme that comes with a great support. It has fantastic Interface that allows you to rapidly make a great looking blog / site.
Price
Thesis is little bit over pricy. The Developer’s license cost $164 which allows you to use thesis on unlimited sites and deploy it on client sites.
It also has a Personal single site option which costs $87 and you can upgrade to developer’s license for $77. Apart from it, you can buy custom built skins from third party developers like Kolakube, Thesis Awesome and Thesis Themes.
Conclusion
My experience with thesis is amazing, so far. I am using it from a year & half and never had any issues with it.
It comes with fantastic SEO options, good readability and loads much faster than other premium themes. In the coming weeks, I will be making some more changes and will be getting an new logo to match the new design.
If you are having any issues with thesis theme frame work or WordPress, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Hey Jai,
Yes, Thesis is really one of the best theme framework.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend, bud.
I avoid using Thesis for ethical reasons. They have treated the WordPress community very poorly.

There’s a never ending debate on GPL license between Thesis Theme and WordPress. I don’t think I’ve any strong point to backup Chris / Pearsonified, but all I can say is Thesis is an amazing theme.
Thanks for stopping by, J. Have a great weekend.
Dev is looks sooo good, wow you did an amazing job, you have always been so talented wit websites and making them look so good! Best of luck wit the blog success you know I’m always supporting you!
Hi Brian,
Thanks for the awesome feedback, Brian. Your support is greatly appreciated, as usual.
Have a fabulous weekend.
Well I love it Dev and I love Thesis. Everyone has their preferences and that’s what I love about free choice. I’ve been using Thesis for almost three years now and would be scared to change now.
I’ve never had any issues with it at all and love their support and what you can do with it. So in my opinion you made a very wise decision.
Looks great!
Hi Adrienne,
That’s great to hear and very well said, girl. Thanks for the nice comment.
Have a great day.
Thesis is a great framework and I use it on some of my sites but Genesis has a better out-of-the-box design IMO.
Hi Beau,
Well I love both the Thesis & Genesis Theme Framework. I use Genesis on my business blog and works really well. I think every one has own preferences and it’s (genesis vs thesis) is a never ending debate.
Thanks for stopping by, Beau. Have a nice weekend.
Btw. – You have a nice blog with great design. Subscribed.
