Here are few sites where you can sell web templates:
1. Theme Forest
ThemeForest offers the opportunity to sell HTML templates, WordPress themes, Joomla templates, Flash templates and Photoshop templates. The price for a theme or a template does vary — as does your cut as the designer. Your cut depends on whether or not a design is exclusive to ThemeForest: for non-exclusive themes you will receive 25% of every sale. For exclusive themes, you will receive between 35% and 50%, moving upwards as you sell more themes.
2. Templamatic
Templamatic has some simple requirements for templates it posts for sale: valid HTML and CSS mark-up, cross-browser compatibility and no copyright problems. In exchange, the site offers web designers 65% of all sales. Uploading a template or theme is a matter of setting up a free account and adding your work. You can set your own price for your work — although it’s important to remember that you don’t get the full amount you set. Templamatic accepts a variety of templates, including WordPress, Drupal and Joomla.
3. BuyStockDesign
BuyStockDesign is a fairly new marketplace that allows you to upload files and make between 50-75% of every sale. They allow PSD, HTML, WordPress, as well as Joomla templates. Prices start at only $5 and go all the way up to $25. Minimum cash out is $50 via Paypal or similar systems. All files include source files. The site’s selection is not very big at this time, but the site looks promising and should keep growing.
4. FlashDen
There are plenty of sites that sell specific types of templates. FlashDen is one site that handles only Flash website templates, along with a few other Flash files. FlashDen is owned by the same network as ThemeForest and operates in a similar manner. You receive a percentage of every sale, with higher rates for exclusive templates. You’ll also need to complete a quiz to begin selling on FlashDen — you can start the process at the Author Program page.
5. SitePoint
While SitePoint’s Template Marketplace may look like just another forum, it provides a forum with templates for sale. The marketplace does lean towards WordPress themes, but you can list just about any kind of website template you have available. There is a fee to list your templates — but Sitepoint does not take a cut of your sales. To begin selling on Sitepoint, you’ll need to create a listing for a new auction. You set your price when you create a listing, as well as establishing whether a template is exclusive to Sitepoint or if it is available elsewhere.
