This would be a GREAT theme if only you understood there are more advertisers then just Google and it might be nice to have some optional places for say some 125×125 a 468×90 and even a 120/160×600 somewhere on the page so I can use it if I move in that direction. This is the only thing that has stopped me from buying. Im sure Im not alone.

Hi Nathan,

I’m using this theme on my CandleMonkey blog right now. I haven’t done too much in the way of customization yet … but to be honest, it works (and looks) pretty nice “right out of the box”.

The only minor beef I have (and it’s not at all your fault), is that I have about 200 posts, and not all of them had images. lol, I think I’m going to be editing and uploading pictures for the next couple of weeks.

On another note, the main reason I bought this theme is that I’d used one of your free themes (Elegant Blue) in the past, and really liked it … and subscribed to your blog at the time … which allowed me to see the announcement about Proximity.

So basically what I’m saying is that giving away free stuff does pay off.

Thank you very much,
Todd

@Michael:

Thanks for stopping by and purchasing Proximity!

I’ve spent months studying WP Theme SEO techniques and integrating them into Proximity. You’re right, too many themes are poor in the SEO department. I wanted to make sure I left no stone unturned. And if I did happen to miss something, I plan on fixing it immediately. I want this theme to help people rank as soon and as high as possible.

Looks good — like a true SEO theme should. I see so many themes claiming to be optimized yet the post title is marked up H2 instead H1, and the H1 is used for the header logo — that’s just dumb.

Purchased. Thanks.

Wonderful. I know you’ve been working VERY hard on this. Great job. It may just start a new standard for news/magazine WordPress Themes. Well done!
