70 of the Best Free and Premium WordPress Themes from May 2012

June 14th, 2012 by Steven Snell | WordPress | 30 Comments

One of the biggest benefits of the amazing size of the WordPress community is the quantity and quality of resources that are available. Every month more themes and plugins are available to WordPress users. While custom designs are preferred by most website owners and bloggers, the low price of premium themes (and of course, free themes) make them a good option for new sites and those working with tight budgets.

New theme shops are popping up all the time, and establised marketplaces like ThemeForest seem to keep growing in terms of the number of WordPress themes that are sold. While the quality and selection of available themes is great for WordPress users, keeping up with it can be quite a challenge. In this post we'll try to help by showcasing 70 of the best theme releases from the month of May. This includes several free themes of good quality, and many premium themes that can be purchased for reasonable prices.
