WordPress is free software with a
great many themes and plugins available. Themes are highly customizable which
means they can be tailored to meet your requirements. A theme is a design which
gives a unifying look to elements such as header, footer, color, font etc
While WordPress itself is free, not
all WordPress themes for small companies are free. Commercial themes are
available too. With premium themes, you are not just paying for the theme, but
for access to support. With free themes you are relying on the good will of the
developer to help you out if you run into problems.
For those on a budget using a free
theme is a great way to reduce the cost of website building. It also offers the
benefit that you can easily swap themes if you find the theme you first chose
was not for you. If you’ve purchased a theme you’ll need to give a lot more
thought to just abandoning it in favor of something else.
Here are some of the themes
available for free in the WordPress Themes Directory:
1)
‘MiniCard’ has a business card theme with built in vCard/hCard support.
2)
‘WP-Creativix’ is a business and portfolio theme with unlimited variations
where you can customize its color code.
3)
If you want a clean and neat theme, ‘Tremor’ is for you. It has three columns.
4)
‘New Balance of Blue’ is grid-based theme with two columns in the
content area, three columns in the footer and optimized for advertisement
space.
5)
‘Amazing’ is a blue and white theme with many widgets, AdSense enabled and suitable for
other type of advertising.
Each theme has its advantages and
disadvantages. In choosing a theme, you should bare in mind that it conveys a
message to your visitors. Simple themes and easy to navigate webpages are best,
so don’t get too complicated.
As you’ll see after downloading a
theme, there are default settings, but you have the liberty to modify them.
Even if you have superb ideas about how you want to customize the theme, it is
not always easy. If you are having difficulty in carrying out your plans why
not look for someone offering WordPresstheme customization services? There are WordPress consultants who can do
quality customizations at an affordable rate.
