"This is high-quality information..."Branding Yourself With The "Guru Theme"
Blogs are a great way to make money online. However, sometimes the money is made not from direct methods like Google Adsense or affiliate marketing.
Sometimes, all you need a blog for is to grow your personal brand as a guru or an expert and the money comes in many, many other ways.
I’m releasing the theme I use for my work-at-home blog as The Guru Theme so you can use it on your blog too. I basically created space for a bigger blog header, which is necessary if you want to band yourself well.
This simple theme is perfect if:
- You just want to build readership and brand yourself as an expert in your field
- You want to build market credibility - there is a dedicated “testimoials” page you can make use of
- You want to focus more on selling your own products or service instead of advertising income
Yes, I know it’s only available in yellow right now 
If you know CSS it’s pretty easy to change the color scheme. Maybe in the future I’ll add all those other boring colors - red, blue and grey.

Wow. I never thought you would give the option to offer your cool theme. Will definitely use it one day. In fact the free ones you let us use currently are equally fantastic.
Hello Gobala,
It’s great that you are releasing your wordpress theme for public downloads. Giving back to WP community, hah? I appreciate your step and that is a nice theme.
That is a nice looking theme, unfortunately the colors don’t work out for me. I am in the process of getting a new theme. I am debating on buying one, or finding a new free one for now.
