45+ Of The Very Best WordPress Themes For Showcasing And Marketing Mobile Apps (2018)
Choosing a theme to market an app is far from an easy task — especially given the plethora of WordPress themes available. Making the right choice, however, can be absolutely mission critical, so be sure to go the extra mile to get it right (over and above all that time and effort you’ll spend developing the app). The right theme will give you a solid basis for a website that will show off your app (and all of its features) in the best possible light, complement your marketing efforts, and, ultimately, inspire anyone visiting the site to download it.
To make things easier for you, I’ve trawled through hundreds of themes from various reputable providers and picked out more than 45 superb options that can showcase apps effectively.
As well as being specifically designed to showcase/market apps (mostly mobile apps, but also apps for other platforms/devices too), each of these themes should — when used well — be more than capable of helping you to make the right impression, i.e. by drawing attention to the distinct features and selling points of the app itself.
Top tip: Keep an eye out for the ability to include screenshots, testimonials, well-placed call-to-action buttons, videos, and anything else that may convince visitors to actually install the app on their device.
In short, when it comes to promoting app downloads, a straightforward no-nonsense landing page is essential — and, above all, be sure to keep conversions in mind when deciding on your ideal theme!
