Why give away a paid template? Because the only honest way to judge a theme is to install it on your own blog and live with it for a week. Biz Pro Free is the same template — same design, same speed, same bilingual engine — with fewer features and no updates. Take it for a run, and if you find yourself reaching for the parts that are missing, the full edition is one upload away.
What makes Biz Pro different
Before the feature-by-feature comparison, here is what the template is built on — all of it is in the free edition too:
Speed that is measured, not promised
Images are served as WebP at the size the screen actually needs, icons live in a single in-file sprite instead of an external library, and every element reserves its box before it loads, so nothing jumps while the page paints.
Bilingual by design
Right-to-left is applied to every component — menus, cards, tables, comments, footer — not bolted on with a plugin. The interface follows your blog's language automatically between English and Arabic.
A home page you build from Layout
Services, work, team, industries, map, contact cards: each one is a widget you drag, reorder or remove in Blogger's Layout screen. No code editing every time the marketing copy changes.
A real dark mode
Not a colour filter: every surface and text colour has its own dark value, and the visitor's choice is remembered in their browser.
Instant search, by text or voice
Search runs against your own posts with thumbnails and snippets, plus a microphone button for voice search in English and Arabic.
Articles built for reading
Automatic table of contents from your headings, related posts, previous and next, an author box, and a custom comment design with threaded replies.
Technical SEO already wired in
Structured data for the article, the organisation, the site and the breadcrumb trail, Open Graph and Twitter tags, and clean canonical URLs with no m=1 duplicates.
AdSense slots with reserved space
Ad slots on the home page, in the sidebar and inside articles, each with its height reserved in advance so the text does not shift when an ad arrives.
Who this template is for
- Service companiesContractors, accounting, consulting, legal services
- Agencies and small teamsDesign, marketing, development, content
- Freelancers and consultantsPortfolio and blog in one place
- Clinics and training centresServices, team, hours, location on a map
- B2B blogsLong-form posts that need a table of contents
- Bilingual company sitesEnglish and Arabic without extra plugins
When would I tell you to look elsewhere? If you are building a full e-commerce store with a cart and checkout, Blogger itself is the wrong platform, never mind the template. And if you publish dozens of news items a day, you want a magazine layout, not a company layout.
What you actually get in the free edition
To avoid vague promises, here is what appears the moment the file is uploaded:
- A two-row header: a pages bar with your social icons, a sections menu with dropdowns, plus dark mode, follow and search buttons.
- A hero section with heading, subheading and fifteen buttons linking your sections, pages and contact channels.
- Home page blocks: services, work and case studies with category filtering, why choose us, animated counters, photo gallery, how we work, team, industries, a where-we-work map, contact cards and a scrolling announcement ticker.
- A sidebar that restyles Blogger's own widgets: popular posts, labels, an ad box, social links.
- The article page with its core reading tools: table of contents, sharing, related posts, previous and next, author box and comments.
- A four-column footer, and a single-line copyright row.
- AdSense slots: three on the home page, three in the sidebar, three inside the article.

The limits, stated plainly
You would rather read this now than discover it an hour into setting up:
1. No updates. What you download today is what you keep. Every improvement from here goes into the full edition only.
2. No Theme Designer. Colours and fonts are written into the file, so changing them means editing the code. Don't open Customise and assume something is broken — the options were removed on purpose.
3. The footer credit line stays. It is part of the template and cannot be removed or hidden. That is the trade for a free licence.
4. Removed features are gone, not hidden. They are stripped out of the file, so you will not find them in Layout and you cannot switch them back on.
Installing it, step by step
- Download the ZIP, unzip it, and keep the
.xmlfile somewhere handy. - Sign in to Blogger and select the blog you want to change.
- Open Theme, click the arrow next to Customise, choose Backup and save your current theme first.
- Recommended: install the Tooliqo Cleaning Template first, so widgets and leftovers from the old theme do not collide with the new one.
- Theme → arrow next to Customise → Restore, then upload the
.xmlfile and confirm. - Open Layout and fill the widgets: logo, menus, hero text and buttons, home page blocks, AdSense publisher ID, contact cards, footer columns.
- In Settings → Posts, comments and sharing, switch the Lightbox image viewer off, and set the blog language so the interface follows it.
- Replace the demo content with your own, open the site on a phone, and run a PageSpeed test so you know your starting point.
Post-install tips that actually move the needle
Images first, always
The slowest thing on almost every Blogger site is the post images. Upload covers at 1280×720 in WebP, and don't upload a 3000-pixel-wide photo and shrink it with CSS. The template handles the rest: it requests the size the screen needs and reserves the space before the file lands.
Order the home blocks for your visitor, not for your taste
A simple rule: the first two blocks after the hero should answer two questions — "what do you do?" and "prove it". Services, then work. Team and industries can wait.
Be sparing with ads
Three in-article slots is the ceiling; two usually earns more — one after the opening paragraph, one before the comments. The reserved slot heights stop the layout from jumping, but no template can save the interaction time of a page stuffed with ads.
The technical SEO is done; the rest is your job
The template sends Google the article, organisation, website and breadcrumb data along with the sharing tags. What is left to you: a custom description per post, a clean H2/H3 outline (the template builds the table of contents from it), alt text on every image, and internal links between related posts.
Test on a phone before you test anywhere else
Most visits to service-business sites come from phones. Open your site on your own device, use the menu, the search and the scroll, then measure. What looks elegant on a 27-inch monitor is often crowded on six inches.
Performance: numbers instead of adjectives
The free file is 767 KB before compression and loads no external library: no jQuery, no Font Awesome from a CDN, no mandatory web font. Every icon sits in one in-file sprite and the type falls back to system fonts, which alone saves dozens of requests on every visit.
Layout shift — the metric that hurts reading experience and Core Web Vitals the most — measures close to zero, because every image, ad and section reserves its space before it appears. Your final score still depends on your images, your ads and how many widgets you add.
Frequently asked questions
Does the free edition expire?
No. It does not stop working and it has no time limit. The only differences are that it receives no updates and that some features are removed.
Can I use it on a commercial website?
Yes, on one blog that you own, with the footer credit line left in place.
Can I resell it or host the file for download on my own site?
No. Reselling, redistributing and re-publishing the file are not allowed, and neither is removing or hiding the credit line.
Does it support AdSense?
Yes: three slots on the home page, three in the sidebar and three inside articles, each with reserved height so content does not jump.
Does it support Arabic and right-to-left layouts?
Yes, fully, in every component. The interface follows your blog language automatically between English and Arabic.
How do I change the colours in the free edition?
By editing the colour values near the top of the theme code, because the Theme Designer is removed from this edition. In the full edition you change them from the Customise panel without touching code.
If I upgrade later, do I lose my content?
No. You upload the full edition over the same blog; posts, pages and comments are untouched. You will only need to re-arrange a few widgets, because the full edition has more slots.
Does it work on WordPress or on classic Blogger themes?
No. It is built for Blogger's modern XML format only.
Try it now
Download the free edition. If you end up wanting the AI assistant, member sign-in or the Theme Designer, upgrading is a single upload.
If you install it and hit a snag, or you think a feature deserves to be in the free edition, tell me in the comments. I read every one — a good part of this template started as a reader's note.
