Thought I would ask this group, for some advice on a reliable and trusted theme, to work with to develop an artist website. I am wondering if there are some companies, making great themes these days that developers consider ‘trusted and reliable’. What say you?!
I have had the same WordPress site for years now, and it is time to change the look and feel of things, but I want to make a good decision for the transition.
Previously, I used. [https://rockettheme.com/wordpress/themes](https://rockettheme.com/wordpress/themes) a lot.

You’re much better off going with trusted, well supported, themes with a large number of active installs – like the top themes on [Wordpress.org](https://en-au.wordpress.org/themes/) or [ThemeForest](https://themeforest.net/popular_item/by_category?category=wordpress)
I think you’re looking at it the wrong way. A lot of today’s sites come with site builders, which you can use to create pages which look like in a theme you may like. For example, there is Elementor / Elementor Pro site builder, which can be used with different themes, including their own “Hello” or “Astra” (two of the most popular themes used with this builder). You can see how the builder is used with Hello theme to create different sites here: https://themesinfo.com/hello-elementor-best-wordpress-theme-b4zia There’s thousands of them, which were mostly built using either from scratch, or using some pre-made templates.
Don’t know what to make with the builder from scratch? You can always browse through different sites that you think might be similar to yours, and see what you like or what you don’t like, and adapt it to your own site.
