Updated: February 28, 2010!
Over the past year, a new trend has developed where bloggers and small business owners are bypassing paying a web designer a lot of money for a custom theme and instead purchasing a premium WordPress theme for their website or blog. These themes usually feature a much more unique look and more functionality than the free WordPress themes available, are widget ready and include a more advanced control panel which allows you to setup the theme without touching any code. You’ll also get support directly for the theme author(s) as well!
Magazine and News themes seem to be the most popular premium themes right now, but pretty much all content management system (CMS) themes seem to be selling really well. There is some great work out there, and more and more web designers are releasing premium WordPress themes each day, so I figured this was a good time to put together a premium WordPress theme gallery to help people looking to purchase a unique and highly customizable WordPress theme. Obviously everyone has different tastes so this method allows each individual to pick out the design that meets their personal needs!
In order for this post to maintain its relevance, it is updated regularly with new premium WordPress themes as they are released. When possible, I’ve also provided feature descriptions for the theme or theme framework, as well as links to view and/or purchase the theme from the author.
Currently these premium WordPress themes are divided into 6 categories for easy navigation. Simply click the link to go to the section you are wanting to browse through (or scroll down to view all of them):
- Premium News and Magazine WordPress Themes
- Premium Small Business WordPress Themes
- Premium Portfolio WordPress Themes

That's unfortunate. Hopefully they can find a solution for it soon. :(
Till then,
Jean 
Did not know about it. Does ispionage have data for some mildly low volume keywords and th eones which are ...
I know this post is a couple years old, but I wanted to thank for you giving us this information. ...
style themes. Do you think they’re more appropriate for one type of blog over another? 
I tried and you tag cloud worked like a charm on my site. I changed few parameters though. Thanks. 
it is a wonderful article,i want to reprint it to my blog, and translate it into chinese, can i?
Roamlog – Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment. I understand there may be a language barrier there, however, please do NOT reprint it on your blog, but instead link to it here. Thanks!
hi, Kyle Eslick
I just introduce and recommend this great article on my blog instead reprint to my blog.
thanks to remind me.
maybe my english is poor, sorry.
Nice list and you get what you pay for. I’ve purchased a couple of these nice themes and it’s been worth every penny. I’ve got the Revolution Sports theme going here http://www.realestateweblog.org and the WP Remix theme going on my link above. Lots of custom scripting but the framework and design was where I was looking to save time.
~David
BTW, what comments plugins are you using? The real-time preview with the mybloglog image is sweet. Also like how you pull the favicon from the url.
David,
That is the most recent version of the Live Comment Preview plugin. It is currently bugged to not show for the Admin, but it works for everyone else. I’ll be featuring it in a post here shortly.
Very cool….thanks for sharing Kyle. I’ll be installing that plugin soon!
WHile I like all of these themes…. as a users of the FREE premium theme Mimbo for my website… I can’t wait to see the final version of Darren’s “Mimbo Pro” theme. Seems to have in store a lot that these older themes are lacking
Hoodgrown – I couldn’t agree more. I’m a big Mimbo fan and appreciate that the author has released it for free.
This post is dedicated to Premium themes, which basically means themes that cost money. Mimbo is a premium-quality theme, but is free so it is included in my Magazine themes gallery.
Excellent collection buddy! I have bookmarked it in del.icio.us so I can send anyone who asks e for a good premium theme!
Stumbled too.
Premium WordPress themes are here to stay!! And while there are some great free WordPress themes that are definitely worth checking out, some people just aren’t comfortable hacking their own WordPress theme! For those people, having the services of a premium wordpress theme designer can be invaluable … here’s another theme you can add to your list of premium wordpress themes, the newest theme to hit the market, The WordPress Dream Theme!
@ K – Thanks for the stumble!
@Ben Cope – Thank you for the heads up on the WordPress Dream theme.
Hey Kyle, I may be wrong, but the Poker theme looks like a simple rehash of http://www.revolutiontheme.com/sports/ The colors, layout and even content blocks are the same, only thing that seems different is the images that are used.
I think there is some hanky panky going on with that Gambling theme. Brian Gardner says his themes can not be resold in any shape or form.
Never mind, I contacted Brian Gardner and he gave me the 411 on the Gambling site using his theme and apparently, the appropriate permission has been given out.
@ Jeffro – No problem! It does like very similar to the Revolution themes, but has an insane amount of changes done to it. I assume Brian gets a cut of each one sold (or I would hope!).
Time to break the piggy bank and cough up some money.. hehe.. nice templates dudes.
thanks
beatuiful ??? very???
Great collection of themes, very useful to browse through whats considered the best premium themes. I’m trying to decide which to go for, now im a bit spoilt for choice. lol
thanks, great list and great premium themes.
Nice collection, I especially like the omin, and tauren themes.
I have used RealWD to designed my website. They were friendly and patient. They also updated my website when the script was updated. Great Company. I didn’t know they had templates for word-press. LOL been looking for a template for our blog and didn’t know the designer of our website also does blogs…Thanks for sharing.

Wow, really good collection of wordpress premium themes! I am glad I saw so big choice before I purchise, this article was that I was looking for!

Really really great list of WordPress magazine themes. I’m inspired!
Thanks for the share, some great themes in there.
Thansk for themes.
Its crazy how the whole wordpress model changed from free everything to premium every in the last couple years.
Great themes, thx.
very nice work. I’ll just use it
Cool set of themes. I’ve noticed quite a few of these developers moving to the subscription model. Interesting, I would love to see their books regarding sales so I could know how they came to that decision.
Nice stuff man ! Keep up the great work love these themes!
My eyes glaze over pretty quickly looking at lots of demos and I also get bored with seeing so many lookalike themes/variants.
I would find it more useful if Premuim themes could be reviewed on the basis of:-
1.The degree of control offered through a user friendly control panel and whether customisation involves touching code directly – especially if core code is involved.
2. An evaluation of the control panels themselves
3. A look at how frequently these themes are updated and what it involves for the owners.
4. How vibrant is the community that supports/owns them? Does it have an active helpful forum for example
5. How well it plays with popular plugins/widgets and what is built in?
I appreciate that such a review is alot of work but it would be a valuable resource!
Chris

The best Wordpress theme I know so far are the Revolution Themes by Brian Gardner. I’ve been shifting from one theme to another for over 2 months now until I stumble upon this awesome theme – the Revolution Music. I find it very professional, modern and stylish. The more appealing part is the ease in customizing/tweaking it, great support and best of all it’s Free! Have a peek of my site at Proud To Be Pinoy.
I just love the Portfolio Theme, simply beautiful.
?hanks! =)
Excellent wordpress templates set, good quality job, thanks for contribution, those are brilliant

I’m looking for an events template/theme for wordpress, and how to display “upcoming events”. Each event is treated as a post.
If you have seen one theme like this, please let me know!

The themes are very well done. Thanks for sharing all these. I have bookmarked this page.
How can I have my Premium Wordpress Theme added to this list? The demo is here: http://simply-colorful.atlchris.com/ and it can be purchased here: http://themeforest.net/item/simply-colorful/79068 for only $22.00!
