About WordPressThemes.uk

Who we are, what this site offers and how we keep it free.

WordPressThemes.uk helps people make and run their own WordPress websites. It has three parts:

  • A free theme builder that makes a WordPress block theme in your browser from your choice of colours, fonts, layout and pictures.
  • A catalogue of free block themes, each tested with the latest version of WordPress before it goes live.
  • Plain-English guides to starting, updating, backing up, securing and fixing WordPress sites.

Who's behind it?

The site was started by Steve, a website developer with more than 20 years' experience of building and looking after websites. Steve writes and checks the guides and builds the themes.

How we check our facts

Our guides are based on hands-on experience and checked against the official WordPress documentation and other primary sources, which we list at the end of every guide. Read our editorial policy for the details, and tell us if you spot a mistake.

How the site is funded

The builder, themes and guides are free. The site is funded by advertising and affiliate links, explained on our how we make money page. Downloads need an email address, which you only give once, and you choose separately whether to get our newsletter.
