What is a WordPress Template?

by Alvina Jennifer Seo expert and digital marketing ex

WP Templates are also known as themes? They are the different design models that determine the external appearance and structure of web pages, blogs, etc. Within the official WP Templates community, there is a network of both developers (professionals) and users who are very active in creating new templates. You can find a gallery of templates / themes on the flexithemes.com in the "Themes" section.

What template is good for you? Free or Premium?

It is possible to be tempted to choose to install a free template on your WordPress.org blog. The price of the templates varies between 20 and 80 dollars, and you can come to think that, by acquiring a free one, you will have the same functionalities as with one of payment and thus be able to save that money. In Flexi Themes, we do not recommend it.

How to choose a good WordPress template

Currently there are thousands of templates and WordPress themes with many different designs and features. So if you are a newbie, it is important that you know what you should look at before choosing yours. So here I leave a list of recommended WordPress themes and the features that you should set in case you do not opt for any of the above.

Personalization capacity

All the templates allow a certain degree of personalization. Changing photos and texts is simple in most of them. However, some go a step further and let you customize each element of the web, from the color and shape of the buttons, to the colors and fonts, sizes, backgrounds, menu style and everything you can imagine.

Visual make-up included

If you are new to web design, or just want to save time when creating a site, Flexi Themes recommend you look at a WordPress template that includes a visual layout. Be it Visual Composer, Elementary (elementary guide) or Thrive Content Builder.

Load speed

It is useless for a WP Templates to be very beautiful and elegant if it later makes your website slow to load. Users expect an instant response when loading a website. If it takes a long time to load, the user leaves before he finishes looking for another result. In addition, for a few years, Google has taken this factor into account when positioning a website in good results.

Responsiveness

This is something that is absolutely essential today. Every web page created at present, must adapt perfectly to all types of devices, so that it has to look perfect on the computer, tablet and mobile phones. The vast majority of WordPress templates are, but it is worth checking with tools like screen fly.

Good valuations

Finally, something that you should set before buying your WP Templates is in the ratings and opinions of users who have already purchased the template. Normally, on platforms like theme forest, you can see how many times a theme has been sold, the opinions of the users and the responses that the theme developers give when someone asks or has any questions.

That being said, and once we've seen our selection of the best Wordpress themes of the year we've done since Flexi Themes. With which you stay? Which one do you think is the best?
