Zen Magazine is designed for blogs, magazines, newspapers, and writers in general. It's a free publishing theme that works with most schema markups, so you can have reviews and monetization content such as affiliate marketing, banner advertisement and so on. We have optimized the SEO (search engine optimization) a lot so it's fast and easy to find websites that use our blogging theme on Google and other search engines (even ASK). We have made sure to put lots of space for ads, you can have them in the top, sidebar, footer, and more, all through widgets so it's easy to integrate ad programs such as AdSense. It's of course responsive and has a simple, elegant, and modern design. You can publish editorial content about fashion, travel, lifestyle, technology, or even revenue generating content such as cryptocurrency, forex, betting, gambling, and more. Starting a news magazine has never been this easy. It has a clean minimalist design, which makes it one of the best WP themes for blogger sites and showcasing your writing skills.
