Matt Giovanisci, Money Lab – Carbonate Theme 2.0

A Lightweight WordPress Theme Built for Speed

This theme is lightweight, super-fast, mobile-friendly, and built using all the best SEO practices. It also includes a settings page that makes setup a breeze. So why wait? Get started with Carbonate today!

FYI: Read this entire page before you buy. Customizing this theme requires some coding. If you are not up for learning how to do some light coding (which is taught in the course that comes with the theme) then do not buy.

This Theme is 15+ Years In The Making!

I’m constantly asked, “what WordPress theme do you use on your sites?” My answer has always been disappointing. “I design and coded it myself.”

I built my first successful WordPress theme in 2006. I’ve been updating the design and code of this original theme with the goal of making it super faster and user-friendly.

Every year, I tweak the code or add something new to make it easier for people to access. As a result, this allowed me to excel at SEO and rocket up the Google SERPs.

Truthfully, most themes are bloated and built on top of slow frameworks and crappy plugins. But I understand why. These themes try to appeal to everyone. Especially people who don’t know how to code.

Instead, I built this theme around two core philosophies.

Trust. If you have a good brand name and logo on a fast website where useful content is easy to find, then your visitors will trust you.
Ownership. This means you’re in full control of how your site looks and functions. I believe every website owner should know how to code. You don’t have to be a master developer, but if you know HTML and CSS you’ll be unstoppable.

This theme doesn’t use a bunch of bloated code to make it easy for non-coders to edit. Instead, I added a very simple settings page. Plus, the code is clean and easy for you to edit using pure HTML/CSS right inside WordPress.And if you’re trying to rank in Google, this theme puts SEO at its core. If you follow the principles of how this theme is designed and put more of your effort into creating great content, you should have no trouble getting loads of search traffic.Installing the Carbonate theme is a great place to start if you’re looking to build a super-fast site to rank in Google. It’s also great if you’re looking to start over.

This theme has been battle-tested throughout the years. And I know it’ll be a great foundation for your brand and allow you to stand the test of time.

Increase Your Speed, Increase Your Rankings

Pagespeed is a ranking factor in Google. And each year, it becomes more important as users spend more time browsing on mobile devices.

Carbonate is your shortcut to higher rank. Since it’s insanely fast out of the box, you might see a spike in traffic soon after you install it.

Your visitors will be shocked by how fast each page loads. Even on slow networks.

This Theme is Really Fucking Fast!

The focus of this theme is page speed. It’s not built on a slow framework or with bloated plugins. It’s lightweight and easy to customize.

Installing Carbonate will help you achieve a perfect 100 score with Google Pagespeed Insights.

This screenshot was a test from a page on the Carbonate Demo site containing lots of images and embedded videos. Run the test for yourself.

This Theme is Responsive and Moble-Friendly

This theme is built for mobile but it’s responsive for all devices out of the box. No need to add any additional code. All images, videos, and iframes are responsive too!
