Color Light – 2007 Report

December 28, 2007. Written by Igor.

After two and a half months, Color Light statistic looks like this : 5,170 unique visitors and around 10,100 page views. Average daily visitors number have grown to around 150 in the last week, and my free WP themes downloaded around 600 people.

I’m satisfied with the numbers, although I must say that I’m not satisfied with the way I’m handling this site, and some changes are about to be made. I plan to redesign Color Light Studio, and focus myself more on free WP themes. I would also try to provide better support for my themes.

I started working on new WP theme and although it is nearly done, it won’t be released until the end of next week. Actually I’m not sure what I’m going to do with this theme, should I sell it or release it as a free WP theme.

One thing I do know is that next couple of days I will just relax and enjoy the 2007 while it lasts.

I wish you all the best in the 2008.

In my opinion, people will love free themes more than paid themes. Paid themes receive less attention unless the theme is something unusual like Brian Gardner’s or Michael Pollock’s or any other big names. Anyway, just an opinion. Happy New Year to you.

Yeah, I totally agree with you. Without something unique there is not much sense. However, I was thinking about One Time Sale. I would try to sell my theme through forums (market), for a hundred or two. If I’m not satisfied with the outcome I would release it as a free WP theme, just like Cubismo.

That’s a good idea too. We have to be creative in making money :p

Not sure if you noticed but your theme Cubismo is featured in the “100 Excellent Free WP Themes” at Smashing Magazine. (http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2008/01/08/100-excellent-free-high-quality-wordpress-themes/)Trust me.. your stats can only get better this year. You are talented bro!

Haa.. almost forgot! Will you be offering this theme as a free download now that your going to re-design your site?

Igor on January 10, 2008

Hey Efrain. Yeah, I know. I noticed it yesterday while I was looking at my statistics. Cubismo was also featured on Web Log Tools Collection, that also brought a lot of visitors.

Now about free CLS theme, I’m not sure, maybe. I will let you know.
