Written by Rehan Ahmed ·  3 min read >

Whether it be a personal blog where you share the happenings of your daily life or it be a fully-professional News/Food blog, the most important thing you need to keep in mind is the look and feel of it. Of course, content is the king and what you put on your blog will decide how much online traffic you get but, you have to know that nothing scares away readers faster than an unresponsive and outdated design. To make a decent blog, you have to choose a good theme first, a minimalistic yet nicely put out theme.

WordPress has made it incredibly easy for anyone on the Internet to create their own blog and to make it even more easy. WordPress has an enormous following which leads to an abundance of awesome themes. Yet, finding the perfect theme can be quite a draining task. So we went ahead and compiled a full list of the top 10 best themes for you to choose from.

6. The Novelist

The Novelist

This theme is not only unique but altogether different in the most basic aspect. Just like the name suggests, this theme presents itself in the form of a novel and is perfect for story-bloggers. The only thing that could make this more perfect is a page swiping animation, but for now, you will have to do with this.

Mobile-Optimized: It works fine on mobile, but you don’t get the exact novel-feel you are supposed to get like in a PC.
