The year 2019 is behind us, and we look forward to the exciting new 2020 — a new year with new opportunities, new challenges, and new goals to achieve. And new WordPress themes!

WordPress is evolving, and the number of users and websites increases annually, and as I write this, WordPress is used by 35.3% of all the websites.

All of us WordPressers use WordPress themes on our websites. There are a plethora of both free and premium themes to choose from, and it can be both a time-consuming and challenging task to find a suitable theme from all WordPress theme providers around the globe which requires a lot of testing and experimenting. It’s easy to get caught up in those explorations which could lead to unwanted malfunctions on your website, so before you go crazy in installing them, make sure that you have a safety net to preserve your setup with a plugin like WP Reset. This handy little tool can allow you to save your environment exactly like it was before the installations and let you delete all of the ones that didn’t pass your requirement test with a single click.

But help is on the way to help you find popular themes, hence even the best WordPress themes available.

As a tradition, this is the third year I am compiling a list titled – What Were the Best Selling WordPress Themes? Previous articles you can check out here – BSWT 2017 and BSWT 2018.

I ask two questions to leading WordPress theme companies, and the questions were as follows:

Question 1 . What was your best selling WordPress Theme in 2019?

. Question 2. Why do you think your best selling WordPress theme is so popular?

This year, 47 WordPress theme companies responded. It is hugely gratifying, and the participation in the article series is growing each year.

I want to thank all the WordPress theme companies who participate this year.

Q1. I would have to say that Storytime Pro is our best-selling theme.

Wrapping Up

It was this year’s edition of What Were the Best Selling WordPress Themes?. Once again, I would like to thank everyone who participated in the article with their WordPress theme contributions.

It is always enjoyable to put together such an article, although it is a time-consuming journey from start to finish. Some notes how to create the posts.

It takes about one month to complete an article like this one.

I have sent over 100 emails (plus 50 follow up emails) to WordPress theme companies. 47 WordPress theme companies participate, and that is close to 50% of the applicants, which I consider to be a significant number of participants.

During these 3 years, a total of 68 WordPress theme companies have participated in the articles. But only 10 have participated in all the articles. MyThemeShop , Themify , Anariel Design , CSSIgniter , Catch Themes , PixelEmu , Organized Themes , Premiumcoding , aThemes , and TeslaThemes .

, , , , , , , , , and . 4 of the WordPress theme companies have the same best-selling WordPress theme over the years, and it’s MyThemeShop with Schema, Themify with Ultra, CSSIgniter with Olsen and aThemes with Sydney Pro.

I hope for more WordPress theme companies joining in next year’s edition of the What Were the Best Selling WordPress Themes?

Thanks to all the WordPress theme companies and superheroes who participated and contributed to this article.
