[Hidden-tech] Best Wordpress theme suppliers

[Sam McClellan]

Jupiter really does look nice, very similar to Divi on the outside. The 
problem I have with any Themeforest themes (and all the envato market 
sites) is their license - $59 for installation on one site if you aren't 
charging the client for the site, otherwise $2950??? For one website. I 
am quite sure no one actually pays the $2950, hopefully, when you could 
start with another theme and mod it to your liking for a lot less than 
that. I did try having the client buy the theme to get around that but 
got tired of that quickly. Themeforest seems to be set up for people 
buying for themselves.

Same issue with Visual Composer (now WPBakery Page Builder) - $45 per 
site if you don't charge for it, $245 per site if you do. Divi is $89, 
comes with a page builder that has 90% of Visual Composer's capabilities 
and you can install them on as many sites as you want.

I did get X and tried it at the same time I was trying Divi, and for me 
Divi won but I know a lot of people love X with it's page builder, 
Cornerstone. Again, because it's on Themeforest it's $45 each site or 
$3200 if you are being paid. Divi usually needs a bunch of custom css 
massaging to make it behave, but I haven't found a theme that doesn't. 
And Divi Booster makes a big difference.
