One of the best ways to get traffic to your site, these days is to add videos to it. With WordPress and WPOven it has never been so easy to create a video site, that too in minutes.
One of the most important things for a site is the theme. Themes can make or break a site. It doesn’t matter if the site contains the best content, if the theme is not good, it deteriorates the user experience and the users don’t stick around for too long.

I am a Co-Founder at WPOven INC currently living in Vancouver, Canada. My interests range from Web Development to Product development and Client projects. I am also interested in web development, WordPress, and entrepreneurship.
It’s sad that these are the best video themes available. I actually own 8 of the 10 and can’t stand any of them. They all have their weaknesses which really show through if you don’t get your videos from either youtube, vimeo, or the other ‘standard’ places. Half of them don’t even bother to be fully resposive or have fallback html5 players for android/ios devices. Just goes to show that the market is wide open when it comes to video and the first company that really goes the extra mile with a video theme is going to make a killing.
I feel the same way, that is why we offer most of these themes at WPOven with our own Video Plugin.
We have made those themes fully compatible with the plugin and even with bulk importers like Videoswiper, to optimize the themes and make the whole process of making a Video site a whole lot better and easier.
Vikrant your video theme inside wpoven looks really good I’m def going to check it out.
Wow lovely template themes you got here.
