With such a huge selection of websites selling Joomla Templates you can't help but feel spoilt for choice. However, many of these sites are selling over-priced, bad quality templates. We felt it was important to hilight some of the best Joomla template hosts on the web below.

We had to put YOOtheme at the top of the list due to the fact that these templates are truly premium and packed to the rafters with features.
