Back in November, StudioPress announced that they will be doing their Last Sale EVER. In that article, we recommended everyone to get the Pro-PLUS package because we predicted that the company will raise the prices soon. Today, that prediction came true. StudioPress is one of the oldest and most popular commercial WordPress themes provider in the industry. We built both our coupons and gallery site based on their Genesis Framework. Soon, the new WPBeginner site will unveiled powered on the Genesis Framework as well. All of our new client sites are now running on StudioPress framework. So it is obvious that they must be very high quality, if we are recommending and using them.
And it is not only us! Industry experts like Darren Rowse, Chris Brogan, Brian Clark, and Matt Mullenweg (Founder of WordPress) himself endorses Genesis Framework by StudioPress.
So what the heck is the deal with 37+ themes on one crazy low price? Well StudioPress have a package known as Pro-Plus which gives everyone access to:
- 37+ StudioPress themes that are available, and hundreds that will be released in the future for NO ADDITIONAL FEE.
- Unlimited Updates and support on all current and future themes.
- PSD Files for all Image Customizations
- The most SEO Friendly, Performance Optimized, and Secure WordPress theme Framework: Genesis
This package currently costs $249.95 (which is a steal), and we are being told from the insiders that this price will be going up on May 11th, 2011. (So you have less than a week to get this discounted price).
What this new price will be? We DO NOT KNOW at the moment. It can be $399 or they can even move towards the subscription package like other theme providers who charge monthly for this sort of service.
It’d be a really wise move for everyone to get grandfathered into the system, so you don’t miss this amazing opportunity.
Whether you are a developer or a blogger, we strongly recommend that you get the Pro-Plus package. Their child themes are really pushing WordPress to it’s limits. Check out some really neat ones available. AgentPress (The best Real Estate Theme), Church Child theme, Outreach Child Theme, Magazine Child Theme, Agency Child Themes, and many more.
Don’t wait and get this amazing deal right now because it will be gone in less than a week.
Not considering the prices, anyone have input on how Genesis compares to WooThemes’ Canvas? I already have Canvas and want to know why I should buy Genesis, I guess.
I think this is a great price for a bunch of really awesome themes, especially considering you get free updates for life. I would buy this at the drop of a hat!
I still can’t afford it though
I agree with Jenny!
When did 250 USD become a steal price?
Some people forget that in many areas in the worl 250USD is monthly wage.
I know some people who do freelancing on the side. Charging $500 – $700 for making a logo change, tweaking colors, and delivering a ready site to a local client. This is an investment!
Tell me where to find those clients that would pay 500$ for some small changes.
Look around you, they are all over the place. Local small businesses want some sort of websites. Usually they end up going to a web solutions company that offer them a one stop solution (i.e hosting, custom CMS, domain etc). Charging them tons of MONEY / month. And the owners can’t even make small changes themselves. Their sites are not unique either because the web solutions companies usually just run their own templates with custom logos.
Clients like this would be: Realtors (Change the logo, add an opt-in area, and give them Gravity Forms), Beauty Salons, Local Restuarants, Churches (This is a big one because they don’t have a lot of budget, and they don’t want to pay a designer every time they want to make changes, so WordPress is great for them). There are tons more. You just got to look.
haha ONLY 250$…
Compared to the value you are getting, that is NOTHING… Look at other theme membership plans (Ex: WooThemes $200 Setup fee, and then $20 / month)…. This is a STEAL!!
