Entrepreneurs. We know you. You love getting started on that hot new idea as soon as possible – and today the barrier to entry on a new web venture is almost nothing.
Simply purchase your domain name, set up WordPress with a decent host provider, and you’re ready to go – right?
Sometimes, as they say, the devil is in the details.
That’s why we created Holder.
What is holder?
We like to call holder “the most charming theme for the time in between.”
And we’re serious! It can take weeks or months to get your project completely off the ground. As you’re busy putting together the next big thing, what are your visitors treated with?
Maintenance pages are okay, but how do you keep interested parties informed? How do you present your vision quickly and easily to the world? How can you display the professionalism and polish your idea is meant to convey?
Holder is our answer to these questions and so much more!
To put it simply, Holder is a holding page / coming soon theme and starter
theme. However, Holder is not that simplistic by any stretch of the
imagination. With the built-in blog and page styling you may even find that
Holder is the only theme you want. On top of that we put together 13 separate theme styles and many more customization possibilities in one theme -
we think you’ll agree that is great!
You only have one chance to make that first impression. Use the Holder Theme. “Wow” your visitors right away and keep them coming back for more as you continue development behind the scenes.
You want a feature list? Oh, we’ve got your feature list.
Here are just some of the many things included in Holder:
- 13 themes – each able to be customized by you – yes you can create
your own theme based on ANY of our themes using our branding theme
options and color picker! We’ve done away with the ‘select default.css’
and made any theme style customizable. Hows that for flexibility? We
even chucked a parent and child theme in there. - Built in blog styling – we felt the number one thing lacking in
holding themes was the ability to have a blog… we fixed that with
Holder. Full threaded comments and all the things you expect from a
normal WordPress theme comes as standard in Holder. - Built in page styling – we added a page template so you can entice your future users
- Simple SEO – last thing you want to have to do on setting a site up is
add plugins at the start – no problem we’ve got your SEO covered with
this simple feature. - Widget areas – want to add widgets? No problem Holder in each style has widget ready areas.
- Form code area – add a form just copy and paste (subject to the method
you use this may or may need adjustment in child theme). - Google analytics – place Google code in your footer
- Google fonts – bored of the web safe fonts? Try a fancy Google font using our great method previewed in our last theme Studio
- Social buttons – Want to link to Flickr, Rss, Facebook, Twitter,
Vimeo, Del.icio.us? No problem just put in your url and a button will
appear on the site. We made these buttons custom for you and this
theme. - Text areas – Add 2 headers, description and footer links just by typing in theme options.
- WordPress 3.0 menus – turn on and off navigation with a simple drop
down setting and if on we have made Holder work with the built in
WordPress menu system to give you ultimate control. - Branding options – upload a logo, image or even choose to have text – build your own Holder theme.
We hope you agree that’s quite a list from a Holder theme!
