Where to Find Pretty Affordable WordPress Themes
If you run a community or personal/business website or blog, here are some lovely affordable pretty themes, to give it a beauty makeover!
Restored 316 (named after a verse from the Bible) offers beautiful themes run on the free Kadence framework. This is super-fast and includes lots of features like automatic related posts, repairs broken links and is also faster than Genesis.
These themes are more expensive (due to lots of bells-and-whistles that you don’t have to use). It also offers more affordable starter themes, if you prefer to keep things simple.
You can also purchase add-on blocks and even take ‘lunch and learn’ quick courses, to up your web designing skills. And the customer service is top-notch!
Why Choose a Good Ready Made Theme?
There are still people out there who literally charge thousands of pounds for custom themes. But if you know where to look, you can create a gorgeous theme and even customise it yourself.
Our theme runs on Restored 316 and it cost around £200, but it looks as good as any custom theme that would cost around £5000 (and it’s highly customised by us, without any professional skills!
And if you use your own theme, you can also tweak it when you want to change things up, without having to pay out to someone else to do it for you. It’s the gift that keeps on giving!
