Although it's always best to have unique templates, so that when people see certain pages they know they belong to your site, sometimes you can't afford to spend as much money as you need to on your web templates.
Here are some sites with free templates, to help get you started.
Steve's TemplatesHere's a blurb from the site
"This site provides free web page templates which are nice looking, professional and can be used free for personal and business websites. Whether you don't know how to design a web page or are in a hurry to get a site up, my templates are the perfect solution. All templates and graphics on this site are original (with the exception of Premium Templates). I have only one rule that you must follow, so before you get started using my templates and graphics, please read the terms of usage."
Free Website Templates from JimworldStarting a new web site, or sprucing up one that is a bit shop worn is a daunting task. That empty screen just sits there and dares you to be creative.
No longer must you face the dreaded blank screen alone. Start with a creative design from FreeSiteTemplates.com and jump-start your development process.
Use the "Browse Templates" links on the left to browse our growing collection of pre-built site templates. Don't miss our Speed Demon templates. They are great looking and use, at most, a few simple graphics.
Both sites offer free templates, and paid templates.
I haven't used any of the templates, but if you try them out, let me know if you like them!
Feel free to share other template sites as well.
Best Wishes For a Prosperous Business,
