Template Monster is one of the leading online companies focusing on providing affordable website designs and services, although they're certainly a web design company with a difference.

Unlike most companies they predominantly sell high quality website templates, and then offer website development services to help customize your design for your specific needs. This can include do-it-yourself solutions or customization provided by their developers.

Template Monster currently has over 5,000 website design templates, with 400-500 new designs added each month.

Types of Templates

What sets Template Monster apart from other similar services is its incredible range of templates, including huge numbers of templates for:

• Ecommerce sites
• Content Management System (CMS) websites
• Custom Blog Designs

 

The Cost of Templates

Each template comes with two prices, a normal price or a unique price. The advantage of the unique price is that it means that no one else can purchase the design of the template after you. In effect you purchase the exclusive license for that design.

The cost of purchasing a template tends to be in the region of $100-$150, with unique prices anything from 5 to 10 times that amount. It's certainly a far cheaper option than hiring a web design company and the quality of the templates is exceptional.
 

When to Use Template Monster

Simply put, Template Monster is an excellent option if you’re starting an online business with limited funds. Many businesses are started with a ‘build it and they will come mentality’, with the result frequently being that no one comes. You want to try to keep as much money back for promotion as possible.

If you offer a B2B service such as online marketing services or even website design you may be interested in joining Template Monster’s affiliate programme. They pay commissions of 20% and you can also sell templates direct on your website.
