10+ Best Free WordPress Themes 2017

Getting free stuff is always great, isn’t it? Especially when the “stuff” is WordPress templates! Today we have prepared a list of the best Free WordPress Themes we currently have for show. If you are a premium WordPress themes fan, you may view them here, however we advise you to continue reading all the same. Who knows, maybe you will change your mind as to freebies…

For those of you who don’t know what WordPress is, it’s one of the most popular content management systems. So popular, in fact, that nearly every fourth website on the Interned was built using it. It started small originally, but because it is free and open-source, it has gained attention from coders all around the world. Because of it being an open project, it had gotten modified heavily by thousands of users with everyone bringing a little bit of something new to the table. So, its functionality grew. But even though it “learned” to do much more, it did not become any more complicated and is still quite simple and user-friendly. And also, there exist thousands of custom built plug-ins for you to use with it.

All the templates we picked for today are absolutely free. But that doesn’t mean that they are bad, low quality or anything like that! It is actually quite the opposite. Only the best free templates make it through the accepting process. The retailing companies never want to hit the dirt face first when it comes to distributing website templates, even free ones. Why do they just give out free templates then if they are so good it would be normal to charge money for them? Well, it works kind of like a publicity stunt. It helps gain trust and new customers, which would later lead to better profits when it comes to premium templates.

So, go ahead and take a look at the templates down there. Try them out, too, it wouldn’t hurt anyway! And be sure to leave any feedback you have in the comment section, it always helps us improve.
