Looking for some themes to choose from for some local business such as a dentist or a plumber. Any recommendations or personal favorites?
http://www.wpsquared.com/medical-wordpress-themes-for-doctors-dentists/ http://wpmania.net/Store/shop/plumbers-wordpress-theme/ http://wpmania.net/Store/shop/allrounder-business-theme/ http://nexusthemes.com/blog/wordpress-themes-for-dentists/ are some good themes for your need , but those are premium themes for which you need to pay. Rather I would suggest you to get 2011 & 2014 themes from Wordpress theme repository & customize it , because these 2 are light-weight & easy to customize to suit your need. Also they are mobile-responsive already , so you dont have to spend time & money to get it responsive . Hope this helps
If you need a wordpress theme for your local business. Then i prefer you to find your business related website. Because Choice is vary person by person. Because my choice does not match with other. I prefer your own choice but i can give you some place address where you can found your business related wordpress site. There are many your business related theme in marketplace. Like as: themeforest.net http://www.elegantthemes.com/ http://www.mojo-themes.com/ http://wpmarket.net/ but in few days ago i worked for a dental website. And the website is very easy to use and so beautiful. Check that theme . You want to know personal favorite theme. And that is one of my favorite. I think above information will help you .
