On the next screen, you will be able to search from 8.474 free WordPress themes that are available in the official WordPress.org themes directory. You can sort them by popular, latest, featured, as well as other feature filters (i.e. industry, layout, etc.).

For the sake of this guide, we’ll be using Bento. It is a popular multipurpose free WordPress theme with flexible design options for all kind of websites.

WordPress will show you the theme in search results. You will need to take your mouse over to the theme and then click on the Installation button.
Once you have installed your theme, you can customize it by clicking on the Customize link under the Appearance menu.
This will launch the theme customizer, where you will be able to change your theme settings with live preview of your website.
You don’t need to finalize all theme settings right away. You will be able to customize it much better once you have some content on your website.
Let’s see how to add content to your WordPress site.
