WordPress has a massive community around it and every day we keep getting new themes and plugins. Now, with the technology evolving from normal themes to responsive and HTML theme, we have to make sure we are using the latest trend of theme technology. This is where a big difference between a free theme club and premium WordPress themes club in the picture.
Premium Wp themes offer great support and is regularly updated to stay compatible with latest version of WordPress. There are many Premium theme club for WordPress are available and here I’m listing some of the hot and best WordPress theme club.
I’m listing only following WordPress theme companies, which are very popular and constantly updated. You can pick any theme from the following theme club and many of them offers child themes which will also help you to give a custom design to your site.
Before we move ahead with the list of top Wp theme clubs, there are couple of things which you should know:
Most of the theme club works on framework. For example, DIYTheme offers Thesis framework, WooThemes offer Woo-Commerce and other framework. And then comes the child themes, which can be quickly install on these framework. In this way, these framework are creating a business below their own WordPress framework. Anyways, this is another topic which we will discus some time in future. For now, lets look into some of the best Websites which you can use to select your next WordPress theme.
There are many themes which you will get online for free and it will be tagged as “Free WordPress Premium theme”. A premium theme with so many qualities is difficult to get for free, of course you can get free premium “like” themes with less quality but why to compromise with your blog and theme quality?
Before you buy any theme, I suggest you to look for couple of essential features such as:
- SEO optimized Theme.
- Inbuilt Design option.
- Inbuilt setting option.
- Easily Import/Export settings option.
- Easily customizable.
- Ad management.
- HTML5
- Responsive Theme
- WordPress Compatibility
- Support
- Price of theme
This is something which we expect in every time and almost all the major theme club offers such option as inbuilt or their support forum is full of such WordPress theme tweaking tips and tutorials.
My Favorite list of Premium WordPress theme companies:
I will start the list with theme club I have used and have experience with their support and most important theme itself in terms of design and usability.
Thesis WordPress Theme:
One of the best theme framework in the market. I have been using Thesis when Thesis 1.4 was launched and now Thesis 2.0 is on it’s way. Thesis is one of those theme, that I use for creating my site because of it’s SEO capabilities and thousands of customization tutorial available on Internet.
When you buy Thesis theme, you also get access to Thesis support forum where you can post your query and community will help you to solve any design related issues. One of the most recommended theme for your site, if you are considering SEO as a keypoint:

WooThemes is one of the most reputed Theme club in WordPress community. Apart from premium products, Woo Themes has also contributed in WordPress community building by offering free templates and plugins. What I like most about Woo Themes is their well designed and Web2.0 ready WordPress theme. WooThemes comes with an advance setting options for various settings like SEO, design and ad management. If you are looking for plug and play WordPress themes, WooThemes is one of the best option you have. <Check out Woo Themes>

Genesis Theme Framework:
Probably, one of the costliest and one of the top theme framework for WordPress. I have been using Thesis for long and the only reason I may hate Thesis is because of it’s slow update. Genesis is one of those theme framework, which is constantly upgraded to match with the latest Technology. Genesis framework was developed by StudioPress. Like Thesis, Genesis also offers in built SEO options and seamlessly integrates with WordPress SEO by yoast. Also, Genesis child themes will make customization super easy.< Check out Genesis Framework >
Theme Forest:
If you are someone, who is hunting for a complete unique and latest WordPress theme, my recommendation is to try ThemeForest. Unlike other themeclub, ThemeForest is a place for freelancers and WordPress designers to sell their theme using TJ marketplace. They have their own set of quality guidelines and all themes on ThemeForest are unique and up to date. If you are shopping for a designer theme, you should check our ThemeForst themes once. <Check out ThemeForest>

Go for Mod themes, there design are really simple and search engine optimized. Investment in your blog design is one time, so try to be careful in choosing design for your blog.
Theme-Junkie is what i recommend ,they are awesome
I like themesforest and solestream… I make use of solestream for my blog
Woothemes are best one’s with better customer support. They are running offers. I will recommend it.
There are some good sites here. But I would also recommend Mojo Themes – they are a growing site very similar to Themeforest.
Theme Garden seems to be a lot more like an affiliate site then an actual marketplace…
Very good information for Blog theme. It will be very helpful for new blogger. Every thing very is not always good. You have mentioned so many theme sites but cost of themes provided by them is also important.
Thanks for the great list. My favorites are Themeforest (huge number of themes) and the Dottoro Theme (several useful features and its visual editor is awesome).
