Best Free WordPress Themes Gallery

Updated: March 29, 2013

It has been awhile since I’ve created one of our popular WordPress theme galleries, so I decided it was time to build a new one. In the past I’ve always taken the approach of trying to remove any personal bias and just display the WordPress themes and demo/download information in a manageable way so that the reader can choose their favorite themes that they’d like to use.

This time I decided to comb the internet looking for my personal favorite free WordPress themes and display them below in a convenient format.  Unfortunately, I quickly discovered that there aren’t many free themes available these days, so I’ve decided to throw in my favorite premium WordPress themes at the bottom of this post as an alternative for those serious about blogging!

This theme gallery is broken down into the following categories (click the link to be taken to the section you are looking for):

• Free 2-Column WordPress Themes
• Free 3-Column WordPress Themes
• Free 4-Column WordPress Themes
• Free Magazine WordPress Themes
• Free Video & Photo WordPress Themes
• Best Premium WordPress Themes

This post is updated regularly, so if you find you are often in the market for a free WordPress theme, bookmark this post and check back regularly!
