Well, it does take a long time to stylize your theme and create all the elements around it.\u00a0 Like many blogs, a free theme was used and because of additional features available, was purchased.\u00a0 Zee Digital stumbled on a theme from WP-Royal <\/a><\/b><\/u>called Ashe.\u00a0 There were modifications but not a whole lot.\u00a0 As you can see, the blog theme looks fairly clean.\n\nThe Ashe theme has a clean and responsive look.\u00a0 From the screen capture below, you will see how neat the menus look. The theme definitely fits travel blogs but is versatile for other types of blogs.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Ashe comes with a Pro version which was purchased for more features.\u00a0 One of the features that stuck out was the pre-made 14 styles depending on your blog choice.\u00a0 Since the Zee Digital blog is technology project related, it aligns with either a darker background style or a style with a slider.\u00a0 However, the use of the travel style keeps this blog differentiated from other similar blogs in this genre.\u00a0 Hopefully the clean lines and decluttered feel help readers focus on the content.\u00a0 <\/p>

Note the blog has sliding menu widgets.\u00a0 On the Zee Digital blog, it is on the left (click on the hamburger icon on the left after the header image). This is one of the excellent features Ashe provides.\u00a0 In additional, demonstration content is included which makes it easy to build the blog.\u00a0 Load the demo content and delete, modify, and add what suits your blog.\u00a0 <\/p>
