Saturday, September 27th, 2008Summary of Wordpress Premium Themes
There seems to be a growing demand for higher quality themes for WordPress. Whether or not you are interested in a Premium theme or a Free theme is sometimes a difficult choice. Some free themes are really top notch so depending on what your needs are there may be no need for you to purchase a Premium theme. But, there are more and more high quality (and some unfortunately low quality) premium themes as well.
There are usually three types of Premium themes available – single site, multiple site and developer license, although some sites just have either single site or developer licenses. In most cases you would normally go for the multiple license unless you are certain you will only use the theme for one site. If you are a developer, obviously you would want to choose the developer’s license. Some of the good premium Wordpress providers that I have found are:
My current favourite theme is the one I use on this site, which is WP-VYBE. It has a lot of flexibility in the admin menu, great support and a great design.
