Why is choosing the right theme important anyway?

Do you know the feeling of entering a store and it's totally chaotic? You don't know where to find something and leave the store directly. The same principle exists in online stores. 

In the world of themes, you have the possibility to install parent- and child-themes. Here we can say that the parent-themes are the basic and the child-themes are the add-ons. But keep in mind that this this approach will lead to a chaotic and complicated admin area.

Your theme determines how your store looks like and this determines the first impression on your customers. So in short: Your theme decides whether your customer becomes a customer! 

A little basic tip - your store should be designed in a consistent design. This means that, for example, the spacing stands should be the same. There is a simple psychological background behind this. In the primal instinct of humans is rooted that, for example, a straight tree is safe and an asymmetrical one isn't. This is how our instincts have become deeply rooted, and even asymmetrical sites seem to us as a direct danger. If you are interested in the psychological background, we have here an exciting video for you.
