10 Dec Top Five Freshest and Most Popular WordPress Themes

WordPress is by far the most popular content management system in the world. According to statistics given by Yoast, there are 72.4 million websites (around 20% of the World Wide Web) based on this content management system. Back at its initial release in 2003, WordPress consisted out of several lines of code, used for typography enhancement. Over the years, it has evolved into a full content management system and a powerful blogging tool. Currently, there are more than 398 million people viewing over 14.3 billion pages (statistics taken from wordpress.org). These numbers are the true prize for the ever-growing developer community. It is exactly the interest of web developers and designers that brought website creation to the level where almost every person in the world can do it without any exceptional knowledge of developer coding.

It is important to stay with the trends in both design and development when it comes to WordPress sites. Themes and plugins are published on a daily basis. There are currently over 27.000 plugins and 30.000 themes for this popular content management system. Here are the most popular themes launched in autumn 2013.
