According to Tom Ewer who wrote a post for ManageWP.com, more than 48% of the Top Technorati blogs are on WordPress. On the whole, a mind-numbing 74.6 million sites are currently hosted on WordPress alone.

WordPress is simple to use (as simple as sending out an email) and that explains the mass usage pattern. But WordPress isn’t just used because it’s easy; it’s also in use because it’s extremely versatile and perfect for most types of websites.

Since the web is visual and you – and millions of others like you – are going to spend time on it, the world is hungry for striking and responsive WordPress themes.

Here are 15 of those WordPress themes:

Fable

Its spacious, full-width, and long-format style makes scrolling a pleasurable journey. Each post type is displayed boldly, giving your content the full-screen attention that it deserves without bombarding the senses. The design is neither busy nor overbearing; reading this story is like breathing a breath of fresh air.

Who says directory sites have to be “portal like”, clumsy, and be notorious for terrible user experience? Take JobEra, for instance. It’s a job directory WordPress theme with a stunning interface while it runs off WordPress back-end. You’ll never need a developer but you’ll be able to run a full-fledged job board.

Think about it.
