ModBlogger is an excellent theme if you are trying to get into the tech blogging niche. It’s very attractive and highly customizable. I would’ve liked to see different colors to choose from for this theme. Also, having the popular posts section is great, but there is no place to show the most recent posts (which could be added in form of a tab). Finally, since the logo is text-based, you will most definitely have to create one from scratch. I would’ve liked to have a sample Photoshop logo to work with.
Verdict: 4/5. Modblogger Tech WordPress theme is an attractive theme that can be used for tech bloggers. It’s highly optimized for SEO and uses JQuery to give a Web 2.0 look to the blog.
