A major reason for this would be Envato’s ([ThemeForest.net](http://themeforest.net/?ref=themeist)) partnership with Ghost, however, even before its public release, theme shops like [Polygonix](http://www.polygonix.com/?ref=discoverghost.com) were already active with couple of themes. Ghost is built for blogging and not as a general content management system. This makes themes that highlight their content and those that require less editing by end user more favorable. Based on this I have compiled a list of 10 of my favorite themes that I find perfect for any Ghost blog. ## My 10 favorite Ghost themes **Note:** *Below list is not in any particular order and some links contains our referral code* ### [01\.
