 * Use a theme that is labelled as ‘accessible’ and find it on the WordPress.org
   repository. That will give you the best start for ‘SEO’ and future support. We
   don’t support themes distributed elsewhere and the Codex articles are included
   in that.

 * thankyou for replying… not really stuck on anything yet as I’ve done nothing 
   other than research wp as my best option for getting SEO site up and running 
   myself.
 * thought it best to ask experts on advice etc b4 I even started to avoid making
   any common or noob mistakes.
 * all I really know is you use themes and then personalise them. I’m not up on 
   codex what ever that is lol. i know there r free themes and ones you can buy.
   I will s3 arch for your recommendation. im a marketer not a tech so I know what
   I want to achieve… this will b learning how to do it 🙂
 * hope that all makes sense.

 * That makes sense.
 * Once the theme is set up, I would recommend browsing the WordPress.org plugin
   repository for an ‘seo’ plugin.
 * The Codex is the documentation that is contributed to by the WordPress community:
