Well, as beginners and/or as people with a very limited budget, getting access to a high-quality and premium theme for free or for a very low fraction of its cost, it´s something that is becoming rather easy these days.

All you need to do is run a Google search for "Free Premium WordPress Themes" or something around those lines and you´ll see hundreds of sites, blogs, and marketplaces offering you nulled or very cheap subscriptions in order to access premium themes for WordPress.

But, something beginners don´t take into account is the risk involved in using nulled themes from unreliable sources and/or the impact these themes will have in their business in the long run.

So, for this, I would like to share this video from a successful blogger I´ve been following for the past couple of years and I think he´s legit on pretty much everything he says. Not just this particular topic but in everything related to SEO and blogging...

I hope this video opens your eyes to the dangers of getting a nulled theme from an unreliable source and starts assessing the value you get from BABIATO.

Cheers and stay safe!
 
So he talks a lot about malicious code but then all he say is : " I DON'T KNOW how it's done .... I AM NOT SURE if they can still do it ..... in this case it's JUST A GUESS if they can do this then MAYBE they can do that ...... there's a good tool to check this but , hasn't been updated for the last 4 years so the chance is it might not work ..... my friend had a problem and it SEEMS it was cause he used a nulled theme ".
I am glad you posted this video, made me realise the importance of not wasting 7.42 minutes of my life watching a guy talking generalities.

He might be talking generalities but his point remains very much valid.

Nulled themes and plugins represent a legitimate threat to any online business if they come from unreliable sources.

And MY intent for creating this thread was to enhance the value of this community and the effort of every single member of BABIATO´s staff to make sure we all have access to clean and unmalicious premium themes and plugins.

Lastly, all of this might sound like "generalities" to you to the extent to say you lost 7.42 minutes of your life because you´re such an expert on the topic, but you don´t care to account for the time you wasted writing an unnecessary sarcastic remark mocking someone that actually was trying to add value and to address a legitimate concern many beginners face when starting out with internet marketing.

Nothing more and nothing left.

First of all I am no expert on this matters, I am just a noob.
but in my opinion the way you made the post leads to think you were taking a dig at this community, and that's why I took time to write an "unnecessary sarcastic remark".
The part of your post I quote here, you could put it on the start of the post leaving it clear that the point of this post is warn the dangers and praise the safety of getting stuff from here, instead of burry that at the bottom of the post where it easily goes missed, and can lead to people think your post has a different purpose.
My humble apologies for misread your intentions with the post
 
The saying goes 'there is no free lunch'. But the fact is there is always a free lunch, whatever the motive.

I'm pretty sure nulled themes helped the original theme get popular. There are many people who use nulled themes as a first step, then after they make money they will buy the original theme.

Nulled themes can contain malicious code so it is important to get nulled themes from trusted sites. as a precaution, before using a theme, check again whether the theme is inserted with malicious code or not.

I can say Babiato is a trusted source for downloading nulled themes, at least that's what they say. And I entrust my trust to them (@Babak and the rest of the staff).
 
@Babak , @TassieNZ , @medw1311 ,@CyberDeviL what do you think about this thread? i am really curious !
smells fishy, right?:sneaky:
I think @RogerM is supporting Babiato with this post however he kinda worded it badly. I agree with his sentiment that nulled themes from "unreliable" sources is dangerous and I can attest to that. Before I learned about Babiato, I used ❌ jojo-themes.net❌ and they add sooo much malicious malware to their nulled themes, its ridiculous! The malicious code waits for about 1 month til the exploit occurs. All links fail and redirect to scam sites.

And themes that aren't updated frequently have the potential to be exploited. This happened to me a few months ago. Which is why you need to be on top of updates, whether you purchase a theme directly from Envato or whether you download it here.

If you make money using a theme I recommend you purchase the theme to support the developer.(y) It could make their day.

My God!

With my history on this forum, I would expect the benefit of the doubt. That is NOT my account, Shaun is a well-known blogger with documented journeys on forums like black hat world and affiliatefix.

@Babak @CyberDeviL @TassieNZ @medw1311 Feel free to close this thread and remove it from public view.

Truly all I wanted to do is enhance what you guys are doing but I guess I failed.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
