Thoughts on my premium WordPress theme?

This is a preview of my upcoming premium WordPress theme.

It will be for general business/corporate use and there will be various inner page templates.

Just looking for some opinions and suggestions; I feel like the design is missing something, and perhaps little details could be improved.

    Not too sure if this is your first swing at it or not, but premium stock design is almost more about features than look. Since the target audience for these products are people who can't afford a traditional designer, but still want something that looks nice that they can customize to their liking.

    So don't get overly nit picky about the design, what you've got looks good. Just make sure you style every page element including the ones you probably hate like tables, include multiple colors schemes even if they're sketch, different background textures, etc. Because what you're really doing is creating palette for your customers, so that they can use what you've created to design something to their liking.

    Thank you for the advice. It is indeed my first swing at premium stock design. Currently working on lots of different templates, and thinking of having it as a free download.

    Its looking really nice.But this is not the proper way of marketing.You need more SEO techniques for this.Otherwise it wont have any value.

    Very simple, and to the point. I like it. The only thing that I would say is missing is originality. But then again, where can you find that nowadays on the net? There's a lot of sites that look like this and so it may be a tough sell depending on how you plan on marketing it.

    As a wordpress theme buyer myself, I would look into backend features. Myself having programming and html/css experience, one of the key things I spend a lot of time researching is the backend features and I guess 'open source' abilities.

    Good luck!

      First off, nice looking theme.....What kind of nifty short code elements will you adding? May I suggest custom bullet list's, action or warning boxes and maybe a cool hr for the more and maybe a few pricing tables. That theme looks like it would bring in a few bucks on themeforest for sure, but they want the goodies in there, like shortcodes and sliders and coda and tabbed elements and accordions in page as well as pricing tables and styles. Its a great looking theme. Congrats!
