I am creating a website in WordPress. I am looking for a theme. Where are the best places to look for themes?
I got mine from Theme Trust and am very happy with it and the customer service associated with it.
Thanks Janet I will check them out
Hi ken
This is the million-dollar question for some, personally there is more than just choosing a theme you need to look at the quality of the author and the reviews and the standard of work they consistently put out, personally I would never buy from theme forest every single person I have seen who purchased from them has trouble like no support or badly coded items or the product just doesn’t work.
I would personally guarantees the support and quality of the places below as I have dealt with them all for at least 2 years
The only places I use are the following
Studio press, this site is built on studio press
Elegant themes
Wpmu DEV- Owned by WordPress
Cobalt apps
Woo Commerce- Owned by WordPress

replied 9 years ago Agree with your comments. One correction… WPMU DEV is NOT owned by WordPress.
In fact, WPMU DEV has a controversial past within the WordPress community. I’m not a fan of their “membership-required” approach. Even if you only want to use one of their products, you’ll still have to pay a $79 monthly fee to continue receiving updates and support. That’s less than ideal.

I completely agree with David's advice above. The most important thing to consider is support — and most independent theme authors fail miserably at delivering this critical aspect.
As of this writing, we recommend these theme companies:
Elegant Themes — 87 beautiful, premium WordPress themes for only $69! Plus, check out Divi, one of the most popular all-in-one themes ever made for WordPress.
StudioPress — The first and most popular theme platform for WordPress. This site is powered by StudioPress!
ThemeForest — The largest selection of premium WordPress themes. But, buyer beware — only buy from top-rated authors who have a proven track record of stellar support!
Array — 17 of the most gorgeous, best-designed WordPress themes for just $89!
Hope this helps!
whoops sorry Shawn about wpmu being owned by automatic, i do appologise, the 79 per month feee i dont know what that is, i paid a once off fee for life? and theres no other fees i have been asked to pay but that doesnt mean they havent changed to a per mth fee structure
Array looks great wow haha
Array has pizza mode im loving it hahahahaha
