WordPress now powers over 40% of the web. And though it\u2019s hard to say exactly how much of that is attributed to exactly what types of users, there\u2019s no question that businesses have been turning to WordPress at a greater and greater rate.<\/p>\n

Exactly What is a \u201cBusiness Theme\u201d?<\/h2>\n

A WordPress business theme is a theme that generally doesn\u2019t put a blog front and center.<\/p>\n
