Some Wordpress templates are bound over by the fact that they are completely seasonal, and these are best appreciated at certain times of the year. One such Wordpress Theme is Snowman, which has the aforementioned fantastic creature as the main image seen in the header. You really do not see anything else; it totally grabs you from the outset as an image that simply cannot be ignored.

This works, though. There are not many templates that can get away with throwing up this kind of huge image at this high level and get away with it. This Wordpress template does. It is obviously a Christmas theme, and it does this job very well.

This is a three column template, and as such contains a lot of potential for functionality. The blogger who wants to celebrate Christmas or even sell products, affiliate or otherwise, through a Wordpress theme that is perfectly suited will be pleased to see that there is space for widgets and ad space that is perfect for this job.

The template is of course limited to the seasonal market, but as such it does a great job, and has the potential to make real money if used well.

While there is a lot of room on the Internet for good old fashioned blogging with no commercial intention attached to it, the basic playing field now is all about making money. It is very hard to find a blog, for example, without some ads on it, or some banners that contain affiliate links that mean the blogger is there to gain some financial incentive form their content delivery. This is of course all well and good, but in the old days it used to be about producing personal content, and the joy of blogging was to be found in that and that alone.

However, now and then, one finds a Wordpress Theme that is there for the sheer fun of blogging. Winter Christmas is one such seasonal Wordpress template, in that it is there for the seasonal aspect of things. A blogger who simply wants to celebrate the season (quite a naive idea these days) and just deliver content in the run up to Christmas would be well served by this template.

It sis three columns in size, and as such does allow for all of that commercialism. However, the general feel is that of a great personal blog.

When Easter comes around, there is one sector in retail that is perfectly poised to take advantage of that particular holiday season. Confectioners and other sweet traders have a great time in this spring holiday. There is a Wordpress template that perfectly suits this time of year, and that is the one that is conveniently known as Easter.

Easter is a fairly self-descriptive Wordpress Theme. The header is bright and colourful, with the Easter colour of yellow very predominant. Bunny rabbits abound underneath a blue sky, and there are plenty of daisies to grab your attention.

Then you find that there is also a fully widget friendly sidebar that has all of the functionality that you could possibly want if you are a blogger. If you are a store that has a blog and you want to get across the Easter special offers that you may have, this is the space in which you can do that. Float a few graphics here, or some units that talk about the discounts tat you are offering, or even just a fancy unit that shows opening times. Whatever you decide, there is a widget that will help you do it. A great theme.

For all of those bloggers out there looking to make an impact in the market that focuses on love and romance, Valentine’s Heart could well be a Wordpress Theme that could make the work of marketing a lot easier. For a start you get an absolutely gorgeous header, with a great big heart right in the middle of it. This highly striking graphic makes the template incredibly hard to ignore, so the first part of making your blog climb the rankings, namely repeat visits, is accomplished straight away before you even look at the other benefits the Wordpress template offers.

The template is three columns in size. This means that you get a whole new level of functionality when it comes to widgets. You can add more widgets with this extra space, while still having the standard Meta that you need contained in one of the two sidebars that the template holds. This makes the template highly locatable on the internet. Meta data really thrives on widgets, and if you have a blog that allows for increased amounts of Meta data, you are much more likely to get found by search engines. This is a great and highly attractive template.

Rarely is it so that you can find a Wordpress theme that can truly be called unique. Bloggers are pretty much creatures of habit, and they like their templates to be all much of a muchness when it comes to looks and functionality. It is very easy to be like everyone else and stick at what you know best. However, every now and then a Wordpress template comes along that is truly one of a kind.

Climatic is such a template. This is a unique template for just one reason, but what a reason. If the reader wishes to (and it is hard to imagine they would not) they can press a button on the side of the template at any time and switch between two moods, winter and summer.

The graphics that are used to depict the two seasons are about as gorgeous as you would want them to be. Rich colours abound, and the scenes themselves are evocative and striking. The template is highly attractive.

There is a sidebar, which contains a great amount of functionality to entertain readers after they have got over the sensational effect. This is a unique wordpress template, one which is definitely worth investigating.

Arctic is a fresh and exciting Wordpress Theme that offers a distinct visual style for any blogger who chooses to download it. The style is simple and clean, and dominated by an incredibly emotive graphic in the header of the template.

This graphic shows a huge, snow-covered field, with a single tree on the right hand side. This Wordpress template thus has a place to play in any nature blogger’s portfolio. The tree and the arctic feel give a real sense of the majesty of nature, so the template is most definitely well worth investigating if you are blogging about nature and wildlife in the fields.

There is a sidebar to the right of this two column theme. This sidebar offers great functionality, with all of the widget space that you could possibly need. If you are to offer extra widgets on this theme for your blog, then enable them through your admin. It is always wise to play around with widget settings, to see which particular layout works best for you and your blog.

This is an excellent template, quite dramatic due to imagery at the top of the page, but still a theme that should please most people.

Now and then, after the year’s blogging work has been done, you might feel the need to greet your readers with something a little more topical. A Wordpress template that allows you to spread good cheer at a seasonal time of year would be perfect for such a job. One such Wordpress Theme is New Year 2009.

It is actually very rare to find a seasonal theme that works. This is because it is hard to have a theme that has a purely seasonal feel to it that doesn’t seem over the top or twee. Having a bunch of words on a glittery backdrop is usually the first sign that designers have got it wrong.

New Year 2009 works though. It is a simple two column template, and as such has a sidebar, located on the right hand side of the screen. The look of the template is very seasonal, and while this may put a few people off, it somehow still manages to be sophisticated. That aforementioned sidebar offers full widget customisation, and it is this that lifts it above the other similarly themed templates out there. It means business, and any blogger who uses it can still deliver great custom content.

Every now and then a Wordpress Theme comes along that is so highly focused on a particular theme or niche that it cannot be used in any other respect. The Wordpress template may be so localised in them and style that no one but the dedicated customer could use it. Happy New Year 2009 is one such theme.

The title says it all really. This is a very seasonal and very bold-looking Christmas and New Year theme. It has a great and striking red and white colour scheme, which depicts an amazing-looking graphic showing reindeers, snow scenes, the lot. This could quite easily be tacked on as a template at the end of the year, as a special treat for your readers.

It is s a two column theme, and has a sidebar on the right hand side of the page. This means that it is widget compliant, and this brings with it a host of functionality that really transforms the blog reader’s experience. If you were to take on a theme that is widget compliant, you have to be sure to enable the widgets in the admin section of your blog.

A one –off, seasonal theme for your blog.

There are many seasonal and holiday related Wordpress templates out there at the moment, and it is very hard to make your mark when the overall content of the theme in question is driven by the general consensus. Having a Christmas theme for example, is not easy. If you are the designer of a Christmas Wordpress Theme, you have to do your best to make sure that it is different and exciting enough to garb the attention of those who stumble upon it. This is really not a simple matter.

The designers of Vermilion Christmas have put together a really effective Wordpress template which, while covering the Christmas feel, does so in a fresh and engaging way. This is a two column template, and it has a sidebar that is totally widget friendly. This means that the template is attractive and seasonal, but it also has exactly the same level of functionality that many other more conventional themes have. So the blogger can add buttons and boxes that make it very easy for his readers to have a totally unique experience when reading the blog.

This is a very effective theme, due to its great colours, and total widget compliance.
