Need help picking a theme.
-
I am looking to start a website for computer problems.
If any users have problems fixing a driver they can go to my website and search for there problem from a category or a text box.
I want a nice and clean professional look theme but I have no idea where to start when looking into themes.
Anyone have a theme they can share? I am kind of new to wordpress.

Go to this page https://theme.wordpress.com/
Click the Find a theme button.
A page will open with feature filters you can use to narrow your theme selection search.Example: 11 Free Business + Minimal WordPress Themes
https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/features/minimal+business/?sort=free -
Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do some work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme and have done any CSS editing.
Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.
After you change your theme all you need to do is go here Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets > Inactive Widgets and re-install them where you want them to appear. The widget contents and settings will be the same as they were prior to changing themes.

Note that every theme will have a detailed theme description page with set up instructions and a live demo site page that you can consult. Here’s an example:

re: front page error message
Nothing Found
It seems we cannot find what you are looking for. Perhaps try a search?There is nothing wrong with your site. By default the front page of the blog is the only page that will display all published posts on it. As soon as you publish a post not a page the front page error message and searchbox that appears on every new WordPress.COM blog will be gone. http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
