Themes, who doesn’t need em? Be it the biggest blog online to the smallest personal blog of an esteemed writer, a good theme is always necessary to attract attention and make it easy on the eyes. For WordPress, over the past 5 years, there have been an increasing amount of theme developers coming out and making a name for themselves. Some of them got big and forgot their roots, some of them stayed true to their fans and customers and love designing. Here are the five most awesome theme developers for WordPress themes. Read the whole article below
1. Elegant Themes
Without a question, the best one in the list. Elegant Themes is known for two things, being extremely inexpensive and having some amazingly unbelievable designs. A year ago it used to be 19.99 dollars for the ENTIRE THEME LIBRARY! Now they’ve increased it to 39 dollars per year since their designs are getting more and more complex. There are no additional charges and the library consists of over 61 amazing themes, they come equipped with the awesome Elegant admin panel called E-Panel. This company is at the top of our list because of their amazing quality and low price. They have a very lively support forum with amazing staff and offer customizations too.
2. ThemeForest
I think everyone knows about ThemeForest, once used to be a small website with a handful of themes is now a part of Envato. A huge network of amazing designs covering every aspect of internet applications. ThemeForest has some amazing designers hard at work at providing some of the most stunning designs ever seen. Their pricing is different, they charge per theme, since they don’t have a said team and the designers are added almost everyday. Each theme has its own pricing but average to about 40 dollars per theme. Support is awesome as always.
3. YooTheme
Fairly new to the WordPress scene, YOO designs themes for Joomla. They recently started porting their themes to this powerful platform. They use Warp framework, something YOO cooked up themselves. It makes editing the themes extremely easy. The themes are jaw-droppingly beautiful but they cost more. There are three membership modes. The lowest one costs around 30 dollars and gives one theme. Definitely worth checking out.
4. RocketTheme
RocketTheme is number four on our list based on their design. The themes developed by them weren’t as good as the rest of the competition. They have neat designs and seem to be improving but the pricing is still confusing.
5. WOOThemes
WooThemes is a popular company designing WordPress Themes. Their prices are ridiculously high like RocketTheme.
