There are free and premium WordPress themes. Some of them are universal and can be used on any website. Others are built for a very specific purpose, for example, the e-commerce themes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WordPress made theme installation super easy. It literally takes just a few minutes to install free WordPress themes. In order to proceed, access the&nbsp;<strong>Appearance<\/strong>&nbsp;section and search for a nice looking theme. You can even filter themes by features or colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Theme preview feature lets you see how your website will look with a selected theme. This is useful, as it will save your time \u2013 you will not have to install multiple themes just to find the theme that fits your needs.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The above method is suitable for free and freemium themes only. What if you purchased a nice looking premium theme? In this case, you will have to upload the theme files manually. Access the same\u00a0<strong>Appearance<\/strong>\u00a0section, press the\u00a0<strong>Upload Theme<\/strong>\u00a0button and select the theme\u2019s .zip file. It can take up to a few minutes for the uploading process to complete. Once it\u2019s done, simply\u00a0<strong>Activate<\/strong>\u00a0the theme. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/webdesignerinc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/installing-wordpress-themes-manually.webp\" alt=\"WordPress Upload Theme\" class=\"wp-image-483\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The look of WordPress site can be changed by applying themes.
