One more premium WordPress Theme?
The premium WordPress Theme market goes very well: Every month, new themes are released, and new people/companies join the market. It is a good thing because it’s great to have the more choice possible, but too much choice can easily make your choice harder.
After reviewing the whole Elegant Themes service a few months ago, I went into their latest release, called eBusiness.
Colors schemes
As a very advanced theme, eBusiness not only have a great layout, it also come with 9 color schemes and 3 different layouts:
Advanced features
Let’s have a look to eBusiness features:
- Threaded Comments
- Optional Blog-style Structure
- Gravatar ready
- Firefox compatible
- IE7 + IE6 compatible
- Advertisement Ready
- Widget ready sidebars
- Theme Option Pages
- Custom thumbnail images
- PSD files
- Valid XHTML + CSS
- Smooth tabless design
Great, isn’t it? But it isn’t over: eBusiness also have built-in thumbnails resizing, a control panel where you can set up options for the theme and an advertising manager. Also, althought eBusiness has been created to be used as a CMS, you can still use it as a blog, thanks to the optionnal layout.
But…How much is it?
Now that I have shown you how advanced the ebusiness Theme is, I can easily guess that you’re asking yourself “Well, but how much such a theme costs?“. To answer your question, the ebusiness theme can be downloaded for no extra cost by any Elegant Theme member.
Elegant Themes membership cost only $20/year, and once you’re a member you can download and use any of their themes and get premium support if needed. So, the eBusiness theme will cost you only $20.
Have you seen many great premium themes for such a low sum? Honestly, I haven’t. So if you’re looking to a cheap way to make your blog looking really professional, what about purchasing the eBusiness theme?

Looks too much like all the rest out there. Someone really needs to come up with something different for Wordpress, like a site that looks professional and DOESN’T look like the underlying engine is Wordpress. These themes all look the same. New thing now is the featured slider. Yawn…
Pretty nice theme
It is a neat theme. How easy would it be to alter some of the graphical setups to customize it for other clients though?
The price is affordable and the theme design is superb!
You are so right, sometimes there are too many great choices to choose from in themes, both for free and paid versions.
It looks quite colorful and nice. Wordpress Well done.
Looking forward to buy this one. Really love the pro look.
Great theme. The best thing is that you can do a lot of customizations to it.
Thanks for sharing, this theme looks promising.
excellent theme, this is really very impressive
I love the creative designs which feature simplicity. For me it’s important to pick a theme that matches your personality.
This awesome WP theme really absorbs the visitor with its warm colors and breathable content reading. Low price makes this theme total no-brainer. One of my clients will for sure fall in love with it at first sight.
Really nice looking and its indeed elegant and professional in same time. Also the effects are really modern and give a great overall experience in interactivity. A+ for designers…
Nice looking theme….i think the one in red looks the best..
Cheers

$20 – very nice price… What about Theme options? is it coded well?
this is very nice one , the colours of this theme are so real and natural.
Definitely a reasonable price. I use wordpress and this is one of the better $20 themes that I have seen out there.
Nice themes and they have very color coordinated styles. I like playing with new themes a lot but when it comes down to throwing up one thats important, I go with studiopress right now becasue their support is the best. They have 50,000 posts in their support forum.
That middle theme is actually something really special. I love it!
this is very nice theme, the colors are so sharp and clear , very impressive theme
excellent theme, this is vey impressive thing
Look perfect for theme collection..it’s very eye catching
Definitely a reasonable price. I use wordpress and this is one of the better $20 themes that I have seen out there. Impressive theme,it’s very eye catching .
Most of the themes are very attractive. I have planned to buy a few themes.The article is very informative and well presented. I am regularly visiting this blog.
The red one looks great! Thank you for this wordpress themes!
I’m in the camp of two many choices. I now just focus on using two designs to keep it simple. But these designs are great.
The price is acceptable but if we’re talking about “elegant themes” we need some grays and whites – those colours look the most “formal and elegant”.
The new ebusiness themes are looking quite nice. Regarding compatibility you mention IE6 and IE7. Do you have information regarding the new released IE8?
very Interesting!! the blue one look so cool
Thanks a lot, but I still have never found any theme that would allow us to take control as much as the Thesis one.
This article gives the light in which we can observe the reality. this is very nice one and gives indepth information. thanks for this nice article
Great article. Love the theme! Keep up the good work!
On a competition with UBD huh..
These themes are really great! Perfect for using in business and other professional sites.
I am planning to put up a WP based website and these themes are what I am looking for. Thanks!
Those are nice but I like more when they make them more simple.I use their themes on one of my sites, they have good support.
Nice looking themes I like the blue one the best
The sample themes are very professional in texture but I can’t find a theme suited for my business. I need something soft and a bit colorful and something happy and relaxing.
I think soon your team will launch a new batch of themes that I might like. I’ll be following your updates.
Nice, but is it actually a ‘business’ theme? My opinion is that such themes should be simple and direct you to the order form, ‘buy’ button, or contact form is a very obvious way, while conveying, through images, the nature of the business as directly as possible. i.e.
Want X?
We got it!
You can trust us.
Get it here!
looks so fab! I love the design keep up the good work
Great post here. I love the design. Thanks for sharing
Yes, i agree wordpress got fabulous design ever since. its worth it!
Yes, wordpress is fabulous check my design in my page…
Like these themes very much. I have some simple html sites that I should convert over to WP. Very slick!
These Themes are realy well done especially for the very afordable price. Very good service.
Really nice themes! I like the membership model, too. Very affordable.
Very good-looking themes…not easy to choose from. That’s Wordpress with an edge!
Is it compatible with IE 7 and Chrome?? if then, I would try it for sure.
Love this theme.
I’ve been looking at the Elegant Themes site for some time and have been impressed by all the themes there.
The thing about this theme, is that it is set up as a page based CMS, which is just what I want.
For the joining fee of $20 this really looks like a bargain.
It is elegant ebusiness theme. But sorry, I think $20 is so expensive for me…any discount?
Internet Explorer 8 is very good because it is as stable as Opera. I hate the previous versions of IE like IE6 because it hangs frequently. “
Nice designs. Although that blue design is easier on the eye than the others.
The designs look simple, nice and elegant. The price is pretty reasonable too. I hope they still maintain the same rate.
