Searching or creating a wordpress theme to suit can be a long and tedious affair.  There are an abundance of free themes available and you could spend days finding one that you like.  Sure you can create a theme from scratch or use a free one as a starting basis, but this takes time - and time is valuable.

Why not buy a premium theme?

In my journey into the wordpress world of online blogging and publishing, I have come across some sensational wordpress templates.  Some like the one this site is using, can turn a simple blogging platform into a fully dynamic cms.  Check out some of these paid wordpress templates:

ONE THEME

One Theme has a great many features, in fact, it is a downright amazing achievement for a Wordpress template.  Widget ready, Adsense ready, Custom Backend control panel, SEO optimised code, the list goes on.  So confident are the creators that you will love using it they are prepared to offer a free 3 day trial.

The impressive administrator control panel will simplify a lot of things we do manually.  No fumbling around with php in order to get something done.  One Theme is now at Version 2.  You only need One Theme

ELEGENT

Elegant Wordpress themes have some rather spiffy looking designs covering almost everything you could want out of a blog.  My wife uses the Elegant Bluemist theme which you can see here: HeVShe

Simplicity, professionalism and a dose modest elegance is what you will find at Elegant Wordpress themes and at a price of $19.95 per year for unlimited access, you can't go wrong.  In the past few months, Elegant has come a long way, integrating a fantastic theme admin panel.  Great Stuff.

WOO THEMES

Woothemes sell wordpress themes separately or packaged with their themeclub and have on offer some truly impressive designs covering magazine type designs to marketing blogs.  A custom admin backend is also on offer along with custom write panels and some fascinating uses of wordpress.
