Why Go Premium?
Forward-thinking Web Technologies
Premium Drupal themes are often built using the most up-to-date web technologies in order to achieve the stunning level of design and functionality they strive to achieve. This is evident not only in the front-end, but in the back-end too.
In order to deliver the impressive visuals and rich feature availability present in many premium themes, modern and feature-full web components and libraries are often a requirement. This is a huge positive, since your site will be on top of its digital game.
Innovative Contemporary Designs
Due to their commercial nature, premium Drupal themes often undergo an extensive design process that typically involves multiple teams of designers, UI/UX specialists, and developers. With this level of funding behind them, premium themes very often deliver a very premium browsing experience.
Hours of research, effort and dedication goes into each one of our premium Drupal themes, who are designed by some of the most recognized designers in the industry.
Broad Feature Availability
Premium Drupal themes tend to have a broad feature availability, packing in quite a punch as far as flexibility is concerned. The use of modern front-end frameworks and innovative backend technologies make premium themes an attractive choice among Drupal site builders and developers.
Modern frameworks & responsiveness
The technical requirements of premium Drupal themes demand that they meet best practice guidelines for mobile-optimization and responsiveness. Additionally, these themes depend on modern frameworks in order to deliver the visuals, interactive layouts, and functionality that makes them so impressive.
Relatively Low Price
When compared to the cost of developing a bespoke Drupal theme from scratch, premium themes are highly cost-effective. They can usually be obtained for a relatively modest one-time fee, and don’t incur any additional overhead. In fact, they’re more than likely to save you money (and lots of it)!
Turnaround Time
Due to their incredibly turnkey nature, premium themes allow for rapid Drupal site deployment, and a significant reduction in overall development time. For the average user, our premium themes should take under two minutes to install. Neat!

I’m new to Drupal. Will I manage?
We were one of the first to bring modern, forward-thinking designs to the Drupal theme space. As such, we attracted many first-time Drupal users to the CMS. In fact, a question we’ve often been asked is whether our themes will be manageable by Drupal beginners. We’re proud to have said yes on every occasion!
I’m a Drupal pro. Are your themes well-structured?
We’re Drupal pros too, so we really appreciate the need for sites to be appropriately structured and well built. With Drupal, this is even more so the case. All our themes are build and structured according to Drupal best practice guidelines, and using the most forward-thinking tools currently available.
Is a Drupal theme suitable for my website?
Premium Drupal themes can be suitable for any kind of website. Technically speaking, there isn’t a “type” or “caliber” of Drupal site that can’t make use of a premium theme. Well developed, high quality themes will stand the test of time on any Drupal website.
Why Drupal?
Content Management Features
Drupal’s feature base is second-to-none. Unlike other content management systems, Drupal core includes such a broad scope of features that it often takes a while before you’ll find yourself desiring third-party modules (or “plugins”). The CMS essentially allows you to build a website with the aesthetics and functionality you require, without the need to install or integrate copious amounts of fickle third-party code.
Security
Long recognized for its superiority in the realm of security, Drupal is touted as a highly-secure CMS. This is backed up by research, which recently indicates that Drupal sites tend to be most robust, fighting off common potential vulnerabilities where its counterparts may struggle. Coupled with its dedicated security team and bug bounty schemes, Drupal is a CMS that sets up your online presence for resilience and success.
Stability
Drupal is used by over a million websites worldwide, with the most common use case for front-facing business sites. Because of this, it’s been all the more important for Drupal to grow into a stable, reliable content management system. Today, the statistics speak for themselves. With more than a million sites running on the CMS, it’s easy to see why many businesses assign Drupal as their website framework of choice. It’s both stable and incredibly reliable, sustaining frequent updates and large website ecosystems in a way that many lesser-developed content management systems would struggle.
Extendability
Over time, Drupal has gone from strength to strength in terms of its extendability. The codebase is incredibly versatile, which means that you can accomplish a great deal using the CMS alone. Oftentimes, Drupal streamlines your web presence incredibly, as you’ll no longer require multiple services to manage things like newsletter subscriptions, your blog, or your online store. Additionally, Drupal comes packed with all the development functionality you need to integrate apps, external libraries, and more.
Views
Arguably one of Drupal’s greatest features is Views. In a nutshell, with Views you can create content layouts and displays that are completely unique and independent to your site. Let’s say you have a number of articles on your Drupal site, which use a variety of fields for storing information. With Views, you can define multiple ways to display and organize the articles, and create new page layouts and blocks. Essentially, you’re creating multiple ways that your audience can consume your content without having to create and manage multiple different variations of each article. The possibilities are virtually endless.
Layout Builder
Drupal’s new Layout Builder allows content editors to build powerful modular pages on-the-fly. Gone are the days of manually modifying complex template files to achieve custom layouts. Now, content authors and site editors can create intuitive custom pages, with completely unique layouts, using the powerful drag-and-drop functionality of Drupal Layout Builder. All the while, there’s no need to engage with any backend code in the theme files; it’s really to accomplish great layouts with just a few clicks.

What is a CMS?
In case you didn’t know, CMS is short for Content Management Systems. They’ve been around since the dawn of the web, and their main purpose is to facilitate easier management of dynamic websites. Gone are the days of manually updating HTML files and managing file structures on your web server. Today, there’s virtually no need for monolithic SFTP uploads and code dabbling in order to deliver great content to your online audience. Of course, these skills prove invaluable where more complex development work is involved (particularly with Drupal), but are most certainly overkill for managing the content and presentation of your website today. Content management systems make it easy to create and publish content, media and files, resulting in a stress-free workflow for the authoring of your site.
What is Drupal?
Having been around for almost 20 years, Drupal is perhaps the most mature open-source CMS available. In terms of software, a lifetime of 20 years is certainly rather impressive. Ordinarily, it would be wise to exercise caution when enlisting a software that’s more than a couple of years old due to the rapid evolution of web technologies. However, Drupal’s maturity has proven only to benefit the CMS and strengthen its use case, due to its lifecycle of refreshment every few years. Since the CMS undergoes constant evolution through iterative version releases, due in large to its global open-source community of over a million users, it has managed to retain a technical edge over its content management counterparts.
Why Choose Drupal?
A common misconception among web developers is that Drupal is a direct competitor of WordPress or Joomla. That’s simply not the case. Drupal stands on its own two (very independent) feet, and often serves fairly unique use cases. While it shares many features similar to the likes of other open-source content management systems, Drupal is best-placed as a tool for building websites for business use.
What is a Drupal theme?
In Drupal, a “theme” is essentially the skin of your website. It’s the main component that creates the look and feel of your Drupal site, and changing your theme will drastically alter the brand image you portray to your audience (which you may or may not want). Themes can be really intricate and complex in nature, or on the flip side—simple, clean, and minimalistic. Making important considerations about your Drupal theme is imperative to your brand image, since they can completely alter your visitors’ perception of your business. For this reason, making considerations about your Drupal theme should never be taken lightly.
Why use a Drupal theme?
Most Drupal websites require a front-end theme, whether it has been developed by a third-party or in-house. An example of a time when importance doesn’t need to be placed on a theme is when Drupal is being used as a headless solution. But for the most part, themes are an essential aspect of any Drupal site. From that perspective, there isn’t much that can be done to escape this. And for good reason! Your Drupal theme is likely to become one of the key components to your branding and the development of consumer and client impressions.
Contrib themes vs premium Drupal themes
Make no mistake—premium Drupal themes are certainly not your only option. Free Drupal themes (also known as contrib/contributed themes) are also widely available. However, there are some substantial differences between the offerings of contrib themes and their premium counterparts.
Drupal Themes: Contrib or Premium?
As a general rule of thumb, contrib themes are much less developed than premium themes, and the requirements and resources needed for each are vastly different. For these reasons, you can expect huge differences between using a contrib theme and a premium one. Contrib themes most often lack the broad feature availability that is commonly present in well-developed premium Drupal themes. Given that premium Drupal themes are sold for a monetary value, they tend to be heavily commercially developed, in a way that allows users to access a very broad range of features with minimal input.
Benefits of Premium Drupal Themes
Premium Drupal themes commonly include the most up-to-date front-end web technologies, a much broader scope of customization, and noticeably more innovative layouts. In short, this is because of the funding that goes into the development and maintenance of premium Drupal themes. Even though the code within premium themes may be licensed under the GPL (General Public License) or similar, they are only made available on a commercial basis, and this usually leads to a significantly higher level of quality.
Turnkey Premium Drupal Themes
Because most contrib (free) Drupal themes are lacking in personality, it’s safe to assume that you’ll need to invest significant resources into further development of the theme, even after installation. Conversely, premium Drupal themes come jam-packed with features, individuality, and style—meaning that little additional development will be required post-installation. In other words, premium themes are far more turnkey in nature.
Premium Drupal Theme Alternatives
Your theme doesn’t have to be premium—in some cases, a free Drupal theme will suffice. In general, free (also known as 'contrib') Drupal themes tend to be much less developed than their premium counterparts, and often still require a significant amount of further development to brand sufficiently. Sometimes, businesses prefer to develop their own custom Drupal theme in-house, or via an expert Drupal theming agency. Whichever method is used, the greatest purpose of a Drupal theme is to present your website in a way that communicates your brand message and enables your users to access the content they need.
Drupal vs WordPress Themes
From a feature standpoint, Drupal core is bundled with a range of tools to help you build solid, logic-driven websites that perform. Drupal’s built a little differently than most mid-tier content management systems, which positions it well to handle sites that have scaling requirements and serve complex content. One of the key stand-out advantages of Drupal is the reduced necessity to rely on external modules (or “plugins”), as the core CMS allows you to build and dictate the precise functioning of your website, right from the administration UI.
