30 Great Simple Blog Layouts


Here is a selection of my favorite simple blog designs. To qualify for this list, the blogs had to have clean, effective layouts with little clutter, a good choice of colour, shape and design, and not rely too much on images. Loading quickly, having good content and quality writing skills also helped.

    Thanks so much for considering my blog for this post!

    I do have to mention though, that the “b” in Dryburgh doesn’t need a capital ;)

    Take care, and thanks again!
