Design your way

Looking for a multipurpose WordPress theme? There are a few neat options in this article.

The key idea for creation of most WordPress themes is to provide flexible templates.

They usually suit any brand, any company large or small, or any organization or cause. The basic features required to design and build any of these website types must be there. This includes features for promoting products and services and eCommerce support.

The themes must also be responsive and be able to create a professional portfolio. They also need to be capable of integrating with social media, and more.

Yet, some WordPress users tend to shy away from multipurpose themes. This happens due to the assumption that if a theme tries to do everything, there are some things it could not do well.

While on the surface that assumption may appear to have some validity, it’s just plain wrong. There are plenty of outstanding websites on the market today. The majority of them will fit every website type well.

Here are 15 of the best.

BeTheme – Responsive Multi-Purpose WordPress Theme

With the largest selection of pre-built websites on the market, 320+ and counting, BeTheme makes it easy to find a perfect match for any website or business type, or client.

Each customizable pre-built website is professionally designed and easy to install (the one-click installer is the most intuitive installer on the market). With the many website features and tools BeTheme places at your disposal including the popular Muffin Builder, it’s possible to build a complex website, complete with text, images, and all the trimmings in as little as 4 hours.

Since it is so easy to deliver exactly what a client wants, and even exceed that client’s expectations, it’s little wonder that BeTheme is a top 5 ThemeForest bestseller.

Although the Muffin Builder and Options Panel will do most of the heavy lifting for you, there are plenty of other features ranging from shortcodes to special effects to help you create picture-perfect deliverables. One more outstanding feature, the Header Builder is just around the corner.

Be’s world-class support team is there to help as well.
