Rehub Vs Astra Vs Generatepress

Looking for wordpress theme opinion guys
This is for a affiliate blog I found generatepress is faster and light weight but its too simple
when it comes to design and appearance found Astra and Rehub looks great for affiliate blog

Anyone using these themes - Astra / Rehub / anyother themes on affiliate blog can you share some insights and SEO performance?
Now ERA of Kadence has started. Kadence is just an amazing theme with high speed and amazing built-in templates.
 
Unless you´re going with a VERY specific and complex layout design and/or you don´t want to spend/invest any time into building the site from the ground up and want a theme already setup for you there will be VERY few options out there that can outmatch the combo GeneratePress + GenerateBlocks.

I don´t think there´s a pair of theme+gutemberg blocks that have experienced more updates than these two in the past couple of years.

So, if you´re looking for the best balance between performance (page loading speed + features/customization options), GP+GB is at the top of that list.

Cheers!

You are right, That's what I learned from this thread

Thanks for suggestion checked that review blog template is cool
 
It doesn't matter. Just know how to improve core web vitals - webp images, cache, lazy load, defer Js and css ... Pass the CWV and you're good!
 
I rarely purchase lifetime licenses, but I purchased one for GeneratePress and haven’t looked back since.

Not only is it a smooth, high-speed, and highly customizable experience but their support team is second to none. Every question I had regarding designing my website (including CSS) was answered in the GP forum.

Most amazing part is that you can create different designs with the help of Kadence block plugin easily in Gutenberg
 
I really like GeneratePress because it's very versatile and adaptable.

It also has a classic look.

It may seem like a pretty straightforward and simple, even minimalistic, WordPress theme, but don't let looks fool you.

It's got a tremendous engine under the hood.

I've recently switched over my whole blog network to GeneratePress, and I'm happy to report that I'm enjoying quite a bit of a nice upsurge in search engine traffic.
 
Thank all your precious feedback!

For a niche website that will serve as a buying guide and news source, do you have any recommended templates of one the 3 Theme? Ironically, having too many choices is not helping with decision-making.​

Something simple like : 1 columns, big menu at the top and of course SEO and Fast Friendly?
i made a screenshot of what style i have in mind.

Just for info I am just beginning in the Affiliation Marketing like i said in my previous post: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/n...market-before-launching-a-niche-site.1475101/

+ I am also currently discovering the concept of block-based website building (previously only used Gutenberg and now exploring Elementor), and I am testing out Astra, GeneratePress, Rehub based on recommendations from this thread.

And as always Hat Friends : thank your assistance is truly invaluable, and I am deeply grateful for your support folded hand.

generatepress is faster and light weight but its too simple
GP is simple because it requires the user to customize it all on their own.
hence why it is alot more light weight.
While Asta gives you the tools to customize it, making it slightly more heavy, but alot easier to use for an average blogger who isn't well versed in programming languages.

If you struggle with customizing without a design UI to guide you through, GP wouldn't be quite suited for you, and Asta would be a much better option.
 
I have got 3 choices for you to make. It depends upon what skills you have considering the WordPress environment. And what themes have you used before? So let's get started.

#1. If you are just starting out or if you don't have much time to design your website from the ground up, you should go for Astra. Astra comes with tons of customization options and everything you need to set up a good-looking and fast WordPress site is that. You just need to enable, adjust, show, or hide. With Astra, you don't need to add anything manually unless it's your custom CSS code. The theme is fast as well. Astra is a user-friendly theme for beginners who are just starting their blogging journey and know some WordPress basics.

#.2 GeneratePress- If you want to customize every inch of your site with your own ideas, then there's nothing better than the Generatepress and GenerateBlock combo. Everything that you ever need on a website visually can be achieved with the help of GP+GB. Generatepress theme customization options themselves are not that much complicated. You can learn them all in a day or two. The theme setup is similar to any theme setup that you use on WordPress. You will get a blank theme with tons of options to add but from the scratch. In contrast to Astra, the GP won't have readily available features that come slider for you to enable and adjust. But rest assured, GP is more capable when it comes to customization of your site. So you don't have to worry. Also, keep in mind that, if you are using any types of page builders like Elementor, Divi - All these third-party page builders support both GP and Astra.

GP with GB

However, you might need to put in some extra hours learning about GB as it's a little bit different and you are working on the front end of the website with grids, columns, and layout. But once you get the hang of GB, you probably don't need to look into anything else.

#3. Kedance Pro Theme with Kadence Block Pro- As Fahedawan mentioned, now the ERA of Kadence is started, and it's too good to be true. If you want to build a beautiful site but want more advanced elements then you should go for Kadence Theme with Kadence Blocks. For example, if you want to customize the homepage and want to add an info box, you can do it easily with the Kedance theme with its advanced and customizable blocks. With the Kadence theme and blocks editor, you can take control of your site and customize and everything but not like GP + GB but in a more simplified and faster way.

Hope it helps you make the decision to choose the right theme for your affiliate blog.

Yeah, you can go for ReHub too which comes with the Remag template which fits your need. Go ahead and build the site. Good luck on the journey ahead.
 
Hi i am back 6 month later,)

I just installed GP because of all the great recommendation in this post,
but don't find theme for niche affiliate marketing!
With Rehub the theme is optimized about info, review, comparaison, selling product...
REHub positions itself as an incredibly profitable theme, brimming with diverse capabilities aimed at driving profit through affiliate marketing and product sales. The key to its charm is its pricing comparison feature. The theme offers numerous comparison tools, from unique product assessment styles to call-to-action placements, and several comparison templates. The user can list identical products along with their prices from different vendors, like Walmart, Target, and Amazon, with a "purchase" button. Building comparison tables to weigh different product models or alternatives is also a breeze. Beyond this, REHub equips your website with powerful monetization tools, like distributing discounts, promoting deals, and enabling 5-star reviews. While its price comparison capabilities are already impressive, REHub has even more to offer to augment your site's potential.

But with GP is more "neutral" "classical", like the template bellow
did i miss something?
Or for what use do you use Gp?

Thank by advance

If you are not a WordPress expert then you should choose Rehub to start because it has many ready-made templates suitable for marketing, but if you are a longtime user GeneratePress is great for speed, light, fast, easy to customize ...
 
GP is very lightweight and powerful but it's not the "lazy" option.

If you need to customize the theme, you need a lot of editing via hooks or PHPs.

Luckliy you can find all the ready-to-copy code snippets on their forum.

With GP, you need to learn and work with it. But once you've done your learning part, you can use GP for EVERY PROJECT in the future.
