- Blogging – Designed to be used for blogging as the main purpose
- Business – For creating complete corporate-style websites
- Portfolio – For displaying images or videos
- Magazine – Similar to blog themes but used for more complex layouts
- eCommerce – Used to build online stores
- Multi-Purpose – Larger themes which can be used for different purposes
