Websites themes should be in such a way that they don’t hallucinate the audience rather impress them; not reduce the load time rather improve it. For blogging websites, every blog isn’t the same as the other. A photography blog requires different aesthetics compared to that of a wildlife blog site. The pioneer of blogging site, WordPress, the well-known content management software gives you both free and premium themes. Which website design suits you the best and why?
Broadening the online presence via content marketing requires a great content management platform (CMS) as in WordPress. Using a free WordPress theme in order to save a few bucks is like selling your own brand without the necessary ingredients in it. Don’t defame your brand with a free theme!
- Free themes lack the features you may need to compete audaciously with the competitors. Spinners, different menu kinds, AJAX load for a great UX and many more good features aren’t available with the free theme. Widgets, sliders, whatsoever be it, there’s definitely a big difference between what the premium ones offer and what the free ones do.
When can you still go for free themes? To redirect a link to their site or to make use of certain widgets really adding some sense to the site or use it to go for paid themes later may be!
- Professional classy looks given by the premium themes aren’t given by the free ones; how do you expect to impress the corporate audience then? Unless you really have a small goal for now and have future plans of revamping from scratch, don’t lose your customers; pay for what you get and you get better for a better pay!
- Support from the WordPress professionals/agencies/any consultants is very meagre for the sites built on free themes. To make a change or to pick up bugs or to apply a fix or for anything, you require a support. All of us aren’t professionals in development and might not know everything on CSS/HTML/PHP or JavaScript. To deal with the themes in all technical terms you need the support. Vendors selling you the themes definitely offer a great support for you have paid them.
- Responsive web design/responsive website/mobile friendly website/all device compatible website/user friendly website aren’t jargons anymore but every business knows the importance of having them; Not just business but even the customers know how a site should look on their phones & know why if it doesn’t look so. To go responsive and to provide the best results or the best user experience you definitely have to pay for it!
- Premium themes aren’t costly enough to afford. A few dollars is all that takes to get some of the best selling themes!
