Besides people searching for "the sports dollar" my top keywords have to be those directed at "sports blogger templates." Blogger is obviously still free and possibly the most widely used blogging platform that contributes thousands of new blogs to the blogging world daily. There are also countless blogs out there dedicated to providing templates for this platform and from our stats, people are really looking for sports related templates.

We'll also mix in some WordPress themes to let the Blogger users see what is possible with a blog template. You become pretty limited with Blogger and making the upgrade to WordPress can mean big things to come. (Of course we still need to make this jump. Soon people!)

Here is a list of sites you can pull, what we feel, are the top sports blog templates.


Pyzam

This site also made our list of the Top 5 Blogger Template sites and remains one of the top still to this day. They offer you a ton of options and color schemes but seem to lack much originality. You'll find way too much Minima going on, but the site will still give you a nice range of colors and background images that should give you a solid base to begin a transformation of your blog.


BlogSkins.com

This is an interesting site of Blogger templates with the templates provided by users. Not a ton of high quality templates for Blogger but you'll definitely have a wide range of sports minded themes. Take some time to browse through and you may find a hidden gem.


Template Monster

OK, not a Blogger template site, but Template Monster is definitely carrying a ton of very high quality sports minded themes. They are also not free, but may be worth a look if you are a starting out a blog and going straight to WordPress. This also has an affiliate program that you can sign up for here.


Free Wordpress

A solid sports WordPress theme list that you should check out. These are free templates that offer you a pretty solid range of what many sports blogs can look like.


Classic Websites

Another WordPress site. None of these are free but it should give you some more examples of sports blogs and your template options.


Time to join ClickBooth to help monetize your site, don't you think?

Many of you probably want a fresh new template and have realized that using one of Blogger's is not the way to go. How many clueless fools out there are still using the Minima template? I'm sure you've seen at least 10 in your search for new and exciting blogging tips.

Well we thought we'd make this easy on you and give you a list of the top template sites out there since most are complete spam and have nothing worth checking out. The last thing we want you doing is wasting your time while your blog could be bringing in cash.

1. eBlog Skins

This site has by far the most sleek and sexy templates of all, for a massive template site. They use some you may have seen before but when you upload one of their templates it has everything already laid out for your ease of use. You couldn't ask for anything more could you?


2. Our Blog Templates

This site ranks pretty close with eBlog Skins but lacks in the fact that one of the templates would not work with IE 6. I loaded it up, set it to my liking and then pulled up someone else's IE 6 machine and the thing was all jumbled. Be careful here!


3. Blogger Templates

This site contains a ton of templates but not enough advertisement specific versions. If you are looking for a solid 3 column template, you will only find a few. However if you are looking for one of the biggest directories of templates, this site will work just fine.


4. Pyzam

Pyzam will probably give you the most choices but you never know what they will actually turn out to look like. They are not necessarily the highest quality and their lists include a ton of cheap looking spam-plates, but you do have a variety here.


5. Mashable

Mashable gives you some very creative and artsy templates to choose from. If you are looking for a very unique template to impress your users, this is your site. Just remember, there are thousands out there with blogs and the chances of them having one similar to you are very high.


Hope you enjoyed the list! Now get your blog set up so we can get some cash flowing into those pockets.
