Premiere: Vlogging Theme for WordPress

Video blogging is not a new concept these days. It is true that top vloggers make a killing from ads, partnerships, and other business arrangements. Starting a vlog is anything but easy though. If you have never recorded video in the past or don’t feel comfortable on camera, it may take you a bit of time to find your voice and get comfortable with vlogging (of course, you can always post YouTube videos to your site until you are ready). Thanks to Premiere theme for WordPress, you won’t have to spend too much time coding for your vlog.

Premiere theme can handle both regular blog posts and video entries. It takes full advantage of custom posts to keep things separate on your website. Your home-page will have a jQuery slider which you can use to display your top videos and content. Your visitors will be able to go through your videos by keyword or popularity. (more…)

Videozoom: Turn Your WordPress Site into a Video Blog

Starting a video blog is more than just producing some videos and slapping it on your website. It always surprises me to see top video bloggers not having a decent theme to present their videos more professionally to their audience. I suppose if you are very popular you can get away with that. If you are just getting started with video-blogging, you are better off getting your hands on a decent vlogging theme. Videozoom is such a theme. It’s quite slick looking and lets your visitors browse your content more conveniently.

As is the case with all WPZoom themes, this theme has a super back-end that you can take advantage of to customize the look and feel of your website. You can customize your site navigation and optimize your website for the search engines. The back-end is fast and responsive.
