Helllo all,

My client is having beauty blog skinbodytipsuntouched.com

But I feel this website is having dull theme which is not attracting users.

Where I can get professional and good looking wordpress themes for free or at cheap rates?

Please share your views and experiences.Thanks in advance.

    I always use one of the WordPress.org hosted and developed themes and create a child theme based on one of them. That is in my opinion the best basis for developing a website for any niche.
    Installation of a custom header image is simple and will set your site apart from the crowd.

      May I offer an alternate approach? I looked at the site and agree it is not very appealing, but I don't think it is the theme's fault. I think the theme has not been "fleshed out" properly, there are no photos installed for instance. You would need to install photos on any theme you pick. OK, thanks and good luck, Ed.

        Additionally, you could equally increase the width of the right sidebar and decrease it a bit for the left one.

    Wrong approach... and I will explain why.

    BEFORE going to the website users/visitors have no idea what kind of theme you installed, so it is absolutely irrelevant!

    AFTER arriving to the website (unless it is abominably ugly and not-user-friendly) the visitors will look at your offer. Is that good enough to make the visitor stay...?

    "Attracting" people to a website means getting traffic. Traffic has nothing to do with WP themes.

    I think this is the most popular website that sells wordpress themes on the internet. They also have free themes for download. The biggest advantage with Woothemes is their template are mostly have ecommerce plugins.

    There are a lot of free themes out there, and just because they’re free doesn’t necessarily mean they’re any less well written or lack some of the options of their paid-for counterparts.
    WordPress › Free WordPress Themes is the official repository of themes, with over a 1,000 of them for you to peruse.
    With thousands of options it can be hard to choose and time consuming. However this time is not wasted as will give you an impression what is out there and. Most sites give you filtering options so you can narrow by by color (though colors can be changed), layout, number of columns and so on.
