6 Best Wordpress Theme Generators That Do Not Need Coding

Updated on June 11, 2015

WordPress Theme Generator Review

WordPress may be the most popular content management system (CMS) today. There are currently millions of people using WordPress around the world. Its popularity is unsurprising when you consider the many features and plug-ins that come with.

One of the biggest concerns when it comes to WordPress is its theme. Every day, there are hundreds of themes being added to the library and most of them are free. The trouble with using a free one is that your site may look too similar to others. You don't want that as it may affect the integrity of your web page.

The ideal solution would be to design your own WordPress theme. But if you do not have the coding expertise, do not worry. There are many WordPress theme design programs that do not require any web design expertise. I go through some of the better ones below.

1. TemplateToaster

It is very user-friendly. It does not take a genius or an expert web designer to use this software. It does all the coding for you and frees the user from having to manually enter lines of code. Though it is intended for beginners, advanced users use the program as well.

Another great feature is its "Drag and Drop" functionality. You can simply choose a design element and "drag" it into your “canvas”. That saves you from having to re-do the code every time you change the design of your theme.
