Thanks for the article!

I still think it's really really hard to sell any of your products. But putting it out the different marketplaces is lot easier as WordPress.com now opened up. Oh well, creative market invite has been pending like a year:)

I'd like to add couple of extra notes on the subject. We chatted with Marc from Obox Theme and we hope that quality stays top notch and reviewing process won't get overload as in WP.org sometimes.

There should be some quidelines also. You should have at least one theme on WordPress.org before you can try to send theme in WP.com. It's crucial that you already know how theme review guidelines work and know how to make solid themes. Perhaps you should be even listed in WP.org commercial themes so that already are serious about creating themes.

I hope that quality stays top notch and reviewing process won't get overload as in WP.org sometimes. I also updated my post with questions and answers what I had in mind before submitting my theme. I hope it clears things for some people.

- Yes you can have demo site on WP.com and you can manage the content. Actually you also get sandbox demo site which is pretty cool because you can test all the toys and whistles before they go live.

- You can set the price of a theme. You'll get 50% and we get 50%.

- We use SVN for sending theme files. First we use review repo, and then live repo.

- We have themerlobby (for themers only) blog where we update all the important things happening in WP.com theming.

- You should participate in our support forum.
