Have you heard about Mystique theme – Mystique is free WordPress theme which provides a lot of features than any other paid theme. Just check it out. I totally disagree with your point of view that you shared in this post (Please don’t mind)

Thanks for your comment Efrat and yes this is something which people don’t really talk about. I have seen many of my readers downloading themes from such websites which are usually infected with trojans or have encrypted footer. In long run it’s not a good idea and specially if theme is infected it will ban your site on Google.

Thanks!
First time I hear of these issues.
Thought the paid ones were just prettier or more costumed to one’s needs.

I’ve been using free wordpress themes and finally I’ve found this blog that talks about free vs premium themes. I think I really need to take this blogging to the next level and that is buying a premium theme with seo friendly.

I would like to hear more feedbacks about Thesis theme.

“Encrypted links” Many of the free WordPress themes do have some sort of links built into the theme,some of the more elaborate theme creators have embedded the links to a point that if you try to remove it, your entire site will fail.
Atimes the free wordpress theme just won’t support the widget or plugin that you need, thats where support comes in, designers of premium themes are most times available to a dedicated web forum or some other avenue to their customers.

When I first started out, I used a free theme. I have not got much against free theme, besides that support is sometimes slow or non-existent. Some theme developers do help out where needed and we are very thankful to them.

Premium themes are just better for me. The support features are sometimes way more although I have noticed some free themes starting to catch up to the trends of premium themes. It makes it exciting as the developers will eventually push each other to the max.

I’m constantly changing my template (which isn’t a good thing…I know). It’s difficult to find any blogger themes comparable to the ones WordPress has to offer. Just recently I was looking at some of the premium themes ElegantThemes for WordPress has to offer. They are awesome. Thesis is another favorite of mine. I’m sure I’ll probably move my blogger blog to wordpress.
