In this OceanWP Theme review we discuss the free and premium versions of this beautiful theme. The OceanWP Theme has been installed on 1.000.000+ Wordpress websites and downloaded 2.5 million times. Those are numbers that will stand out. Why is this theme so popular? When looking at OceanWP's rating, it is immediately noticeable that it is also very high. The rating that can be practically rounded to 5/5 as shown in the picture below is of the quality of that of Astra and Generatepress which are also OceanWP's closest competitors.
OceanWP: Strengths
OceanWP Theme review: Speed
The main difference between OceanWP and the 2 aforementioned closest competitors is that OceanWP has put the emphasis more on top design (especially for web shops) and Astra and Generatepress on speed. OceanWP is also built on speed but not as forced as the other 2. The image above shows that OceanWP scores 98%, ie of 100 sites, 2 were faster than OceanWP. It is important to consider for yourself what is more important. A site that loads everything within a second can of course be called top fast and speed is one of the good features of OceanWP which makes it so popular.
OceanWP: Beautiful design
So the design is something that has been given more than enough attention by the OceanWP team and it shows. The theme shows a beautiful design on all devices and the demo websites offered are of very high quality. See photo below.
And for Woocommerce...
OceanWP: Woocommerce extensions
The OceanWP theme has also been perfected on Woocommerce, the most popular webshop system in the world for Wordpress. Not only for customization of its design, but it offers a host of conversion enhancing gadgets. For example the so-called native cart pop-up. After you put an item in your basket, a pop-up will appear to encourage you to pay. This alone would bring about 8% more conversion. There are a number of Woocommerce modules that you can view on their own site.
To be fair, we have to admit in this review for OceanWP that the theme is one of the best for creating webshops. If you want to have a perfectly working shop that looks fantastic, OceanWP is your theme.
OceanWP: Core extensions
The premium version offers access to all core extensions (see photo below). The possibility to build a full screen site with scroll, the practically mandatory cookie notification, a customizable pop-up login, the removal of the OceanWP label in the footer, beautiful portfolios, the aforementioned Woocommerce extensions, a sticky footer , and hooks (more for professional builders).
OceanWP review: Video
In the video below from OceanWP itself, you will quickly be made aware of the benefits of the OceanWP theme. The video only lasts 48 seconds.
OceanWP: Pricing
The regular "to-go" premium price is $ 54 for 3 sites. Especially if you are going to use the theme for a shop, this is a very good price. There are practically no better themes for building web shops.
OceanWP theme review: Conclusion
You have come to the end of our OceanWP theme review. In the first place thanks for reading the complete article. My conclusion is that OceanWP is a fantastic theme that is definitely worth the money. The theme is perfect for web shops, has a great design, is easy to operate and loads very quickly. That's basically all a good theme needs. It just lacks a good page builder to finish it.
OceanWP works perfectly with Elementor, but also with one of the following elite page builders: Divi Builder, BeaverBuilder and Thrive Architect.
INSPIRO THEME (Ocean-WP vs Inspiro)
In this Inspiro Theme review we take a look at the most important features of this theme . It has recently made a rapid rise to a high listing on Wordpress.org. This suggests that we are dealing with a very good theme here.
Inspiro Theme review: Rating
If we check Inspiro's rating on Wordpress.org, we see that practically all raters gave 5 stars except for a few haters. The theme has now been installed on more than 10.000 websites. That is a pretty high number for a relatively new theme.
Inspiro Theme review: Demo's
The Inspiro theme offers 10 beautiful demo layouts. We are talking about the pro version here, the free version only has 1 I believe. The free version is often downloaded because despite the lack of many demos, this theme is extremely suitable for people who want to work with a Youtube or Vimeo background or slider. That is the specialty of this theme.
Inspiro Theme review: Webshops
Inspiro doesn't excel at building webshops but the pro version doesn't come alone, you can choose from 36 different themes that are included in the WP-Zoom membership, many of which are better equipped for webshops than Inspiro. The theme is 100% compatible with Woocommerce, but if you are going to build a webshop then choose a theme like Astra or another theme from my top 10 for webshop themes.
Inspiro Theme review: Speed
The Inspiro theme is a minimalist theme and can therefore be called fast. The bare theme with no extra plugins with just a well-configured cache plugin produced the result presented above. Of course you can optimize your website yourself for loading time. Follow this tutorial here.
Inspiro Theme review: Pagebuilders
The Inspiro theme uses its own page builder by default, but is compatible with the Elementor page builder, Beaverbuilder, and practically all top page builders out there for Wordpress. I recommend installing Elementor for free, but much better of course the pro version.
Inspiro Theme review: Style Kits
Inspiro offers 6 different very extensive Style Kits. In the image below you can see how easy this works, choose a style and you're done. Smaller adjustments can be made to the style later.
Video Autoplay op Mobiel & Tablet
In its own words, Inspiro is unique in the fact that both self-hosted, Youtube and Vimeo videos play automatically on all devices. So also on tablet and mobile.
Inspiro Theme review: Conclusion
It is clear that a lot is possible with Inspiro. In terms of video backgrounds and video slider, this theme is at the highest level and is therefore often downloaded as a free version via Wordpress.org. The autoplay function on mobile devices is of course also great.
As soon as we talk about the pro version, we are suddenly talking about 36 different niche themes that are included in the membership. Although each theme can be purchased separately, this is so stupid because the price difference is very small. In the pack are themes for every task and niche you can imagine. WP-Zoom has put together a very complete selection here. Memberships usually deliver a lot more bang for the buck than just a theme, just like Divi is the case.
Ocean-WP vs Inspiro conclusion
You have come to the end of my Ocean-WP vs Inspiro comparison. I have Ocean-WP in my list for best Woocommerce themes for [2023]. Not for nothing, because Ocean-WP is perfect for creating webshops and is also very fast. So it will be difficult for most themes to compete with this, although Inspiro's video backgrounds are great. If you are looking for a theme for that purpose, I would choose the Inspiro pro version, in all other cases Ocean-WP.
