My Top 3 Free WordPress Themes

Join me in this video where I share my top 3 favorite FREE WordPress themes + a new kid on the block that seems bound to steal my geek heart!


Big Question: Which theme should I choose??

Not-So-Perfect-Answer: There’s no perfect choice, but there are a few things we should look for in good themes. And if you’re using Elementor, Beaver Builder, or Brizy as website builders, a theme is not sooooo important as it used to be.

Here’s what you should look for in a theme:

  • Trusted developer
  • Excellent support
  • Works with page builders
  • Lightweight
  • Fast
  • Handles global styling
  • Logical organization
  • Works well without a page builder too!!
  • SEO and accessibility
  • Solid options for header and navigation menus
  • Doesn’t try to be jack of all trades

Here are my favorite top 3 free WordPress themes:

  1. Astra (*) → Functionality and features
  2. GeneratePress → Stability and reliability
  3. Page Builder Framework → Simplicity

And here’s the new kid on the block that is bound to join my top 3 list!

  • Kadence → Most popular Gutenberg blocks and incredible header and footer design flexibility

Kadence is not yet available inside the WordPress theme repository, so you need to download it directly from their website and upload it to your WordPress application. Here’s a quick video on how to do it:
