In today’s digital age, businesses of all sizes need an online presence. As a small business owner, you likely don’t have the time to develop a new website from scratch, but thanks to site hosts like WordPress, you might not need to!
WordPress is a popular website builder and content management system that powers millions of websites across the world. One of the reasons for WordPress’ popularity is its huge array of themes—off-the-shelf web design templates that offer customization options for you to personalize your site. Themes allow you to load content into a premade, professional website template and give visitors a great first impression of your business, even if you have no coding or graphic design skills.
There are tons of different WordPress themes available. In this post, we’ll outline four of the most popular and discuss why they're ideal for small companies that conduct business on the Internet.
1. Divi
Divi is one of the most powerful WordPress themes available. With 800+ premade website designs for all types of different website needs, it offers virtually unlimited design possibilities. It also has a drag-and-drop page builder, making the theme easy to use for small business owners and employees with little to no coding experience.
Divi offers many different content modules, including forms, calls to action, sliders, customer testimonials, and more.
Highlights include:
- Front-end webpage builder

For example, the “Renew” style has a flat, simple design that is great for creating compelling landing pages.
In addition to these four design styles, X also has a powerful front-end webpage builder that allows inline editing, custom font styles, dynamic content, and more. And X’s responsive design means that it looks great across all screen sizes.

4. Intact
Intact is a great, easy-to-use WordPress theme for small businesses and entrepreneurs who are just getting started. It offers 12 demos (prebuilt sites for different types of businesses such as a Marketing Agency or an App Developer) with a full template of pages for each demo, from a homepage to a 404 error page. In addition to the design templates, Intact also offers a responsive design and a powerful admin panel with more than 20 shortcodes, animations, and scrolling effects. These features allow you to build a complex website without coding.

Any of the above themes will help you quickly build and manage your small business Internet website, so you can focus on building your business instead of hiring designers and developers – or trying to do it yourself. Themes and Wordpress templates can cut down on the complexity and time it takes to get your small business Internet website off the ground.
