I don’t think that Magazine-Type WordPress themes are fit-for-all.
What’s a magazine-type website?
See, for example:
- The New York Times – Breaking News, US News, World News and Videos.
- News, sport and opinion from the Guardian’s global edition | The Guardian.
- BBC – Homepage.
For them, it’s great. They add a lot of news, and when you enter the website, there is a logical structure – the most important pieces of news get the most attention.
For a website that publishes just a few times a month, there’s actually no need for a magazine-type theme.
A “regular” blog theme will do.
Sure, a magazine-style theme looks nice.
But if doesn’t fit the style of the website, I suggest you avoid it.
