Hey Guys,

For the last while I have been thinking about getting a custom theme designed for my website. I have a few design ideas in mind but I am not really too sure of a few things.

1. What things should I ask for when having a theme designed. I just really know:
  • what I want the theme to LOOK like
  • I want it to be mobile friendly (HTML5?)
  • what else should I make sure I request? I was thinking of asking them to build it on the Genesis theme framework...
2. Where should I go to get it designed, like who?
3. How much would I be looking to pay for sch a thing? haha

I would really appreciate any and all answers to my questions!

MartieDread.

    You can give reference to some websites you really. If a website is not responsive (mobile friendly), it is useless.

    You may also buy a commercial theme like avada or divi and design your website using page builders.

    Cheers

    I just put this out for public beta release: Bio Ship | wordpress theme framework
    not sure if it's what you're looking for but it does tick most of your boxes,

    i created it so I could focus on the design and build upon it knowing all the
    under-the-hood theme stuff was consistently sorted between sites.

    there are a few more features in the works already, welcome any feedback.
