Ink is a finely crafted WordPress blogging theme, based on the latest narrative trend with sites like Exposure and Medium. With an emphasis on telling stories with style, Ink is designed with attention to details, and coded with the best possible coding practices.

Fully compatible with the latest WordPress 3.9, Ink is so simple to use that it does not come with a theme options panel. Instead it makes use of the built in Theme Customizer, which provides all the options you need, and lets you preview the changes as you customize on the fly.

Fully Responsive and Retina Ready — Ink looks nice on all devices, be it phone or tablets, it will adopt to any screen size and makes things look beautiful on retina displays.

SEO Optimized — Ink is coded by following best SEO practices and it is 100% compatible with industry-leading SEO plugins like “All on One SEO Pack” and “SEO by Yoast”.
