One of the strengths of WordPress is that the layout is independent of the content. The layout can be changed by activating a different theme. Unfortunately, there are so many themes available that picking one is sometimes a challenge.

WordPress itself provides a directory of themes at https://wordpress.org/themes/. You can look through this to find a layout that appears good to you.

You can also purchase a paid theme from a number of websites that offer them for sale like Themeforest. One of the benefits of paid themes is the developer may provide updates and support since they are making money from your purchase.

There are a number of websites offering free themes but use caution. The themes may contain viruses or malware. Additionally, there may not be any future support or updates.

Our first recommendation for a WordPress theme is just to use one of the default themes that are included with WordPress. This is especially a good idea when starting out since the content of your website is more critical than your layout. You can always change your mind on the layout in the future until you settle on a style you like.

However, if you would like a more robust theme, we recommend two. They are both free but have paid options to add additional features.

To summarize, you have a lot of choice when it comes to WordPress themes. Our recommendation is just to start with a theme and then move to creating content. You can try different themes in the future.
