I chanced across a couple more WordPress themes of late worth mentioning. As always, SEO will be the main reason a WordPress theme catches my interest. I will be sharing one free theme and one premium theme.
Swift Theme (Free Download – Currently v5.09):
if you have not heard of this theme, perhaps you are not the only one. One of the better kept secrets of great WordPress theme designs, Swift has a number of attributes the advanced blogger / developer would appreciate. Checking out the built-in options, Swift offers adequate tweaking capabilities. They say a picture speaks a thousand words, I have attached 4 below.
- Swift Theme – Design Options
- Swift Theme – Options
- Swift Theme – Widgets
- Swift Theme – demo.nimopress.com
The winning attribute has to be its speed. I tested this on my demo blog against other themes and Swift loads really fast. Beating most of the other themes I compared it with, both free and premium themes. Need I say more?
ElegantThemes (Premium Annual Membership)
One of the newer providers of premium annual membership for WordPress Themes, Nick is offering exceptional value for premium themes. For 19.95 annually, you get unlimited access to all the available themes at ElegantThemes. That is less than what it will cost you to host your weblog for a year. For some, it is less than one month’s web hosting fee. An annual membership at GraphPaperPress will set you back 99.00 in comparison.
Yes, GraphPaperPress has a very fancy choice of premium themes. We are not comparing apples with oranges here. ElegantThemes offers you the best bang for your buck with fresh looking themes.
So if downloading a free theme is not your thing because you do not want to look like the masses, ElegantThemes might just be your answer if you are on a budget. It is definitely not going to break the bank.
