    I need to know what type of web templates sell. I mean what criteria should they fullfill. Second, I would appreciate it if someone who actually makes and sells web templates let's me know how to submit completed work to companies who sell other people's work. Thanks

    I don't know about submitting to template companies, but you should focus on phpld and wordpress templates as those are the most common. The criteria should mainly just be that they look nice, but being standards compliant will help sell a few more copies.

    I have a web design site where I mainly deal with fan sites, but on occasion other sites. I sell pre-mades and leave them up on my site for people to look at and e-mail me if they wish to purchase. I also know you can e-mail the webmasters of the template which may be of interest to them, like say if you have a template based around a wedding, try e-mailing the contacts on some wedding planners / chapel's etc sites. I think thats a good start. You can also submit your templates to Wordpress for free, if you needed to build up a reputation or give ideas of work but i'm not sure about sending them into a company

    Hi ,
    You can try to register at website webdesignersofusa.com as a vendor. I am registered there and it is a great and quite a platform for selling tools amongst web designers.
    They offers occasional sign in discounts too. :)so if you are lucky you may get in.
