Testing new Wordpress Theme for 72 Hours
I have activated this theme today couple hours back and will try to keep the same one for a total period of 72 hours in order to find if it would be feasible to continue with this theme or continue the old one which is still running on the Apple Blog.
I will be comparing the overall revenue changes, ctr changes in terms of improvements etc and also the number of page views etc because the page views generally depend a lot on the theme. If the visitor likes your blog’s navigational setup they would read more posts on your blog and may even subcribe, and if your navigation to the other pages/categories is confusing, then its obvious that they would move away asap.
Its very important to test adblocks and regularly compare different adverts and try to maximize your revenue. Iam sure many of you guys would think that this theme is very simple but this was implemented since i recieved some complains over the last dark background coloured theme and some people had problems reading the content. Lets wait for 2 more days and then finally come to a conclusion regarding these themes.
Yes Amit the new theme is really simple…but i found 1 change
There’s an improvement in alexa rankings…your new ranking is 44,000 which means that this theme has increased some page loads for u

The Alexa changes are not for one day and they are a change which was because of constant increasing traffic. Regarding theme i think i will continue with this one unless i see a drop in revenue.

This theme looks much better and easy on eyes. Just one suggestion, clean out the ad clutter at the top of the post – too many of them

I originally was running on the main section ie amitbhawani.com from over a month and then opted to try out on thewwwblog.com and now on this blog. Its just a test out and we cannot find the revenue/seo changes so quickly. Just because i found that the visitors didnt like my dark coloured theme, i tried for a lighter coloured theme.
