In the competition between Premium WordPress Themes, now there’s a new entry that are having an important role in the themes market, called “Headway“.

Launched in late July 2009, Headway is a premium WordPress Theme that has already grabbed the attention of famous blogger like Jay Fleischman, Chris Cree, and John Haydon and can be compared to most known themes like DIYTheme’s Thesis and Woo Themes too.

According to the site:

Headway is perfect for both developers/designers and the average do-it-yourself-er. Easily rearrange a layout or change a setting in a jiffy. With Headway you can stop worrying about the monotonous tasks or the technical stuff, and just get down to creating great content for your blog. Headway makes designing your blog the easiest thing about blogging.

Headway Premium WordPress Theme: Worth It?

Currently, I’m using Thesis on my blog cabinrentalsideas.com and tried Headway, and I can attest that Headway’s is very similar like flexibility. Through the Layout Editor you are able to customize the layout of each page. Also, you can create new sidebars and duplicate them across pages. You can even customize the 404 page directly in Headway.

Headway is very easy to use. Similar to Thesis theme you can customize every CSS, but It has no custom.css and you no need to have php or css knowledge to do it.

Also, based the type of content, you can add, Widgetized Sidebar, Content or Text/HTML, RSS Feed, Featured Post rotator, and Image Rotator, and much more.

Headway includes:

1. Choose fonts for everything.
2. In-house Twitter synchronization and social network options
3. Built-in color pickers for everything.
4. Content Rotators built-in with a variety of options like slide and cross-fade.
5. Drag and drop fill-in-the-box content editing for home page and all pages.
6. Unique “Leafs” system that lets you add text, media and widget boxes on the fly
7. Use WordPress widgets to create a “super footer” that’s loaded with great content.
8. More built-in SEO options than any WordPress theme on the planet with customization on no-index, no-follow, do-follow, meta, tags, posts and pages (everything, then!)
9. Re-use any part of your blog anywhere else.
10. No two pages the same

There’s a forum where you can find any kind of help and share your experience. Of course, Thesis forum have a more active community being a old site.
