  Great morning!

  Thanks a million for your response! By following these steps will I be limited to my imported theme or will WordPress give me the opportunity to change to various WordPress themes? I would prefer to have a WordPress theme.

  I appreciate you!

  Hi mrjhoward32,
  WordPress has a library of free themes that you can choose from. If you do not like any of the free themes offered, you can always upgrade to advanced plans to unlock the premium themes.
