10 of the Best WordPress Themes for 2018 Sponsored

“Content is King” still holds true when one speaks of what is necessary for a business’s website. Especially, if it is to attract and engage visitors, and encourage them to respond to a call to action.

An attractive website and one that’s loaded with cool content is not enough, however. More than half of today’s online shoppers rely on mobile devices. Thus, and if a website is not responsive, its owner risks losing a significant percentage of users.

The following 10 high-performance and responsive themes represent the cream of the crop. They provide great value for the money. Choosing among the best of the best can be difficult, but at least you won’t have to worry about making a poor choice.

Be Theme

Finding just the right theme to build a website around can sometimes be just as time consuming as is the design work itself; especially when a business requiring a website is tucked away in a highly specialized niche, or a client is a one-of-a-kind creative type.

Be Theme, the biggest WordPress theme of all, has you covered in either case. This top 5 best-selling ThemeForest theme offers 300+ pre-built websites covering more than 30 different niche categories. Since each of these pre-built websites is customizable, you’ll be able to start designing a website that will perfectly match a business’s or client’s requirements.

Finding just the right template to build your design around, takes minutes, rather than hours, and since it can be installed with a single click, you’ll save even more time. Be Theme is delightfully intuitive and easy to work with. The Muffin Builder and Options Panel do much of the heavy lifting for you, while a huge selection of design elements and shortcodes gives you unmatched flexibility, and eliminates any need for coding.

Kalium – Creative Theme for Professionals

Kalium is another multipurpose WP theme that’s worthy of your consideration. Built by professional creatives for professional web designers, this theme features all the layouts, shortcodes, and design elements you’re ever likely to need.

If you’re still a relative newcomer to website design, don’t let Kalium’s professionalism scare you off. This web-building tool is easy to use, and a joy to work with. If, in fact, you’ve never designed a website before, you can still create a professional looking website, blog, or portfolio in minutes.

If you have a ready-to-go online store in your sights, you can get one up and running in no time with Kalium’s assortment of shop layouts. Or, if a multi-page website is the objective, the home page and landing page demos will save you a ton of time.

It will be worth your while to give this award-winning ThemeForest best seller a good, close look.

Pro

Pro’s authors will tell you that, with their product, if you can imagine it, you can build it. Since building a fully engaging, award-winning website with any tool requires discipline, they would seem to be on to something.

Pro was designed for those website builders who understand and appreciate the need to follow a disciplined approach. Pro offers an easy-to-follow, modular approach to website building. This “building-block” approach is in itself, highly disciplined.

Pro’s Header Builder, for example, enables you to create anything from the simplest of header formats, to headers that will blow your mind. The same is true with the Footer Builder; while the Content Builder’s optimized workflow features will bring out your productive best.

If the opportunity to add a genuine web design game-changer to your tool kit in 2018 appeals to you, give Pro a shot.
