Make Your Website Look Awesome with a Professional Theme!

WordPress “Themes” are essentially templates that give your website its unique and professional look.  They can also add additional functionality when customizing your website.

Professional Web designers create themes and then make them available for free or for a small fee.

Companies such as StudioPress (who I highly recommend) offer a solid framework with a great selection of theme designs. They are affiliated with the insanely popular blog site Copyblogger.com.

Elegant Themes is also a great company. They even offer multiple themes for one low price giving you the option to try several on your site!

Free themes are fine when starting with WordPress, such as the “TwentyTwelve” and “TwentyThirteen” themes that come with a new WordPress installation… they’re actually solid themes, but they can easily become difficult to customize. So what I have learned from experience is that buying a professional theme early on is well worth it long-term in terms of professionalism and customization options. Play with several themes, find one you love, then stick with it!
