In this day and age where almost everyone - be it an entrepreneur, entertainer, institutions or even clubs - needs to advertise or inform others about themselves, there is no better way to do so than through the internet. Websites are attractive, work fast and are user-friendly. A key to drawing visitors to a site is first and foremost the design. Something that looks good ought to work well, right? However, it can be a pain for web masters and designers alike to create something from scratch. Which is why free web templates are perfect for those who are running against the clock and need a site fast. They may not work as well as those designed specifically for a business with little details and such, but they’re faster to create and offer basic functionality. Here are the 10 best sites for you to download web templates for free:
Edit
1. Free templates
Free templates has a wide variety of templates to choose from, which do look pretty professional. Approximately 1218 free web templates are available for downloads. Viewing the samples is easy since they provide a preview button or you could just roll your mouse over the samples. Best thing about this site is that it has a little description about each particular template its author and how many people have already downloaded and used it.

2. Website templates
This particular site has around 64 templates, looks-wise the templates are average. Suitable for those who are looking for simple and muted overtones. Although it has a large thumbnail for the samples yet you can't have a mouse rollover which is somehow more practical.
Edit
3. Template kingdom
This site has just 30 templates to offer and most of them are either css or in worpress format, although it has less to offer it makes up in the description given about the templates and the design of the templates as well. The only reason it's not up in the charts is that it has too few templates to offer, other that that its one of the recommended sites.
Edit
4. Designers paradise
This is one of the few sites which has both flash and html format templates for downloads and the templates are professional looking as well. The drawback is that it has just about 30 html templates and even fewer flash templates. The website itself is easy to navigate
Edit
5. Designers templates
This site has 548 free templates for you to choose from. A few of the templates look good and they come in both css and wordpress format. But apart from that nothing significant.
Edit
6. Templates
This site has well over 600 templates for you to download, it has a wide range of both css and flash templates which look pretty decent, although navigating through the site itself is a little tedious.
Edit
7. Just free
Take a quick peek at this site and it does look dull and boring but fret not because one of the good things about this site is that, it has html, wordpress and joomla templates as well, making it one of the first site in our list to support joomla. The html and wordpress templates don’t look that great but it’s the joomla templates which takes the show away.
Edit
8. Perfect templates
It has just under 60 template to offer. They provide you with a little read more button which give you the description of your desired template, a few of the template support wordpress. Looks wise some of the template look pretty good.
Edit
9. Direct template
Not many templates to choose from, this site has just under 50 template to give away. They provide a preview button which doesn’t really help matters much since the preview sample is still quite small. Some of the templates look fine but a few others look very amateurish as per their design.
Edit
10. E-templates
Even though there are 240 free templates, most of the templates look as if they were made 4 years back, very outdated. Navigation is pretty basic. Works well for those who aren’t looking for anything spectacular.
Some of these sites have amazing template to give away and some of the templates given in these sites may not look as good as the ones which are made by professional designer's and their functionality may not be as great either, but we have to take into consideration that these templates cost nothing at all just a little patience perhaps for you to search the right one for your site, nonetheless they should still suffice since they are free.
