  I am wondering what customization options will I receive once I upgrade to premium. How much flexibility does WordPress Premium allows?

  For example, I am currently using the Apostrophe theme and the widgets on the side are of a pre-set color. Will I be able to change their appearance, text and color if I go premium?

  Hi there!

  Upgrading to Premium gives you Custom Design, which allows you to add custom CSS to adjust the look of your site.

  If you want to try that out before purchase, go to Customize > Custom Design and click Try Now, then click CSS and you’ll see the box where you can enter in some CSS.

  For example, you could give the widget areas a different background color with this CSS:

  .widget-area {
  	background-color: red;
  }

  (Change the “red” to another color or color hex code, like #000000 for black.)

  If you’re new to CSS, this page has an overview of how it works here and some resources to check out: https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/editing-css/.

  Let me know if you have any questions!
