Matt Mullenweg & Joseph Scott Theme Directory Interview @ Themeshaper
Tagged: SEO, Wordpress, Wordpress ThemesMatt Mullenweg & Joseph Scott agreed to do an interview over at Themeshaper regarding the return of the Wordpress Theme Directory
Definitely worth reading.
I was particularly interested in why they felt the need to bring back the directory.
- Themes were scattered across the web, searching for them was frustrating, it was easy to miss good ones, and each site had its own UI for downloading and testing.
- Many of the theme directories seemed more interested in promoting paid themes they got affiliate revenue from than highlighting the amazing free GPL themes out there.
- There were some fake theme directories set up that were distributing malware, if you installed one of their themes (often copies of legit themes) it would hack your blog.
- Themes were of varying quality, and it was difficult to tell which themes supported which WordPress features.
