Modern WordPress Blog Theme shouldn’t be expensive. Certainly, it should be fresh, feature-rich, SEO-friendly and easy to use. But it shouldn’t be costly. Moreover, when one uses themes from different authors he/she has to learn each of them first before starting a project.
We’ve resolved this issue once and for all. Topper is an ultimate multiskin WordPress Blog Theme with the most affordable price on the market.
Premium version starts from just $5. But let’s take it in order.
Why We Think the Prices of WordPress Themes Should Be Lower
We are 7 years on ThemeForest and 10+ years on the web development market. We have our own site, 3 Power Elite Accounts on Envato with total of 160K+ sales and accounts on Creative Market and Mojo. So, we definitely know the market from the inside out.
Let’s try to remember all the popular sources of WordPress Blog Templates. And we will start with ThemeForest / Templatemonster.
ThemeForest & Templatemonster Pricing
When you search for blogging theme on ThemeForest, you’ll probably see something like this:
The price of decent WP template varies between $49.00 and $75.00. But unfortunately it’s not all you have to pay. When you proceed to checkout, you will find out that there are hidden VAT and Handling Fees. To your surprise the cost increases up to $91.63:
So, it’s almost a hundred dollars for a WordPress Theme. Above all, you understand that you are going to use only a small part of it.
% of Theme Components We Actually Use:
For example, when you buy an Avada license, you can use it for 1 project. It contains 50+ demos and 300+ Premade pages. But you use only 1 demo and 5-10 pages at a time. Should it still cost you an entire price each time? It doesn’t sound like a fair deal.
An alternative marketplace like TemplateMonster has even higher prices for their WordPress Themes:
So, the cost will be even worse.
Envato Elements and TemplateMonster One Membership
Recently, Envato and Templatemonster have launched their membership plans. They allow unlimited downloads and stuff. But is it in fact a great option for those who repeatedly use WordPress Themes?
Even if you choose the most affordable plan and agree to pay for the entire year in advance, you still come up with an impressive number of $235.62. It’s the least expensive option there now.
And guess what? – no support and no guarantees of any updates. Again, doesn’t sound like a good and safe option for saving.
If we check Templatemonster One, it is even more expensive, since it’s $17.00/mo:
Revolution Slider Included
As it was mentioned before, we don’t think that market gives a good price for WP Templates. Especially for freelancers, small and medium web agencies. Therefore, we’ve created Topper with the best pricing options.
We’ve resolved the above mentioned problems by giving customers 4 options to get it.
Topper Free Plan - $0
Yes, you got it right! You can get a Topper WordPress Theme free of charge. No functionality limits, no feature limits, no limits in updates and theme documentation.
This plan allows you to actually use the theme in your project and receive automatic lifetime updates.
The limits here are: premium plugins, demo content and technical support are not included. If needed, they can be purchased separately at a very affordable price.
Topper Personal Plan - $5
This plan extends the free plan by giving an opportunity to download any 1 premade demo. In most cases the site developer needs just one demo out of dozens that theme authors offer. So, why would one need to pay for all of them?
Hence, this plan is great for those who like one of the Topper’s premade concepts. So, in this case the customer gets the product for just $5. He/she gets all the features, functionality, premium plugins, detailed docs and 1 demo of his/her choice.
The limit here is only access to a technical support, which can be purchased separately at a decent price.
Topper Pro Plan - $59
Topper Pro will be perfect for those who like to get everything at once. The customer gets everything, including all the demos and 6 months premium technical support.
This is a perfect solution for projects with large budgets. Also, it is suitable for customers that haven’t yet decided on the design concept. And of course it is a nice choice of customers that simply got used to the way ThemeForest sells WordPress themes.
Topper Developer Plan - $99
If we step even further, we come up with the Topper Developer Plan. It extends the Pro plan by providing additional licenses for additional projects. If Pro plan gives you 1 license for 1 project, Developer plan gives you 3 licenses for 3 projects.
So, basically, you can consider this plan as a bulk purchase with an option to save $78.00.
As you can see, the theme allows absolutely flexible purchase options.
Topper Skins and Design Concepts
Now let’s quickly review just some of the premade demos available for those who chose Personal, Pro or Developer plan.
Topper: Main
Main demo was crafted with warm colors, beautiful easy-to-read typography and shows different combinations of content and sidebar positioning. All demos, including the main one, are equipped with a WooCommerce store, Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
The demo contains multiple layouts for category and single post pages. Above all, besides Elementor blocks, it provides its own premium ready-to-use shortcodes.
Due to high customization flexibility the main demo is a perfect choice for any blog and magazine.
Topper: Tech
This demo is significantly different from the main one. It was crafted specifically for blogs about new technologies, computers, artificial Intelligence, etc.
It has a clear typography with a large letter spacing. The appearance and hover effects are calm and strict. The demo includes multiple layout options for blog stream page, galleries and single posts.
As well as all other demos it goes with WooCommerce store, Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
Topper: Traveler
The travel blog demo was designed to evoke a reader’s good mood. The color scheme is all warm and bright. The typography is a bit larger than the one in the main and tech demos.
Zoom-in hover effects on images and bright color change hover effects on buttons create the feel of interaction. Also, it was made social media super friendly. It allows to place the share buttons literally anywhere you want and post your Instagram feed.
The demo is equipped with WooCommerce store (in case you decide to sell anything online), Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
This design concept will definitely work for personal travel blog, travel agency, lifestyle news and magazine, etc.
Topper: Fashion
ThemeREX designers did a great job making this demo colorful and elegant. We decided to refuse from this boring artsy style that most authors use. On the contrary, it was made colorful and interesting to observe.
Here you can find an amazing combination of pink, grey and purple colors. Classic typography was mixed with outstanding hover elements. By the way, hover effects on this demo deserve a separate article. We worked really hard finding the right solution for each block and section.
As all other skins, Topper Fashion is equipped with a WooCommerce store, Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
It certainly works for fashion blog, news and beauty magazine.
Topper: Minimal
This demo has been made for fans of minimalistic blog styles. The main page is divided into 2 sections: the left one is the left-right slider of featured posts and the right side is the scrollable section of all articles. The trick is that all the interactions with the visitor happen on the same scroll level.
The demo features beautiful compact burger menu, round easy-to-read typography, multiple versions of sidebar positions and widgets usage.
Even though the demo is called “Minimal” it still has all the features that other demos have: WooCommerce store, Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
Topper: Gaming
This demo received even more functionality. On the top of what others have the Gaming Topper WordPress Theme has:
- Review system. Each game or post can be reviewed by certain criterias. The aggregated mark can be displayed on each post and/or thumbnail.
- “Buy From Amazon” buttons. If speak about gaming stuff, plenty of things can be purchased from Amazon. Therefore, by popular demand, we added this button to this demo.
- Additional spots for Ads. We’ve added even more opportunities to add advertising to the site.
- And of course the theme goes with WooCommerce store, Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
The design was inspired by such games like Dota, WarCraft, Tomb Raider, Fortnite, Lineage and Call of Duty. Therefore you will see large titles and easy readable typography.
Topper: Art & Design
Art & Design WordPress Theme is another outstanding design with its own unique solution. The demo has been made as a one page site. When you open the post it opens with AJAX-request in the same window without reloading the page. While you read and scroll down you can see the progress bar on the right side of your window. However, if you are not a big fan of one-page sites, the demo still contains an option to make it regular blog. Overall it looks fantastic.
The design has been made with a thought of Art. All titles were made with Bagnard typography, which slightly reminds Lord of the Rights letters (but of course it is easier to read).
Moreover, the developers saved all the features from main Topper WordPress Theme: WooCommerce store, Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
Topper: Food
Art & Design WordPress Theme is another outstanding design with its own unique solution. The demo has been made as a one page site.

Topper: Men's Style
Men’s style demo is an example of quite a successful experiment. ThemeREX designers mixed ultra logical positioning of blocks, clear easy-to-read typography with a coral color. As a result, the WordPress Theme didn’t lose its masculinity but received additional visual breath.
The template has a powerful functionality, including WooCommerce store, Slider Revolution (included for free) and Essential Grid (included for free).
