    Hello everyone! It's been a long time that I was not able to post here. Anyway, I just setup a Wordpress theme reseller site. So let me just ask the web designers here. In choosing a Wordpress theme, what are the things that you are looking for?

    Your answers are greatly appreciated and it helps me in my campaign. Thanks!

    First of all , If don't know html or CSS and you can't change your website design , you need to look the design of your theme . Then Search problems and some reviews about that theme .
    And decide what you exactly want .

    You have to make sure the code in the theme is top notch, no errors and that everything complies with WordPress coding standards. A poorly-coded theme will hurt SEO as it makes a site slower.

    Responsive design is important nowadays yet the most important (and difficult) part is what sits behind the scenes: a great admin panel allowing for full customization, built-in SEO, integration capabilities, rich component palette accessible via shortcodes, etc.

    Another thing to look for is monetization, choose a theme which has got a good layout for ads.

    A clean look. Easy to navigate. Space for ads, where appropriate. Options for how many posts to show on the home page.

    As far as I am concerned while choosing a WP theme I'll take following points under consideration :

    1. A simple and interactive admin panel.
    2. Cleanly coded.
    3. Most importantly SEO friendly.
