A free WordPress-themes site can work as an SEO and marketing channel if treated as a product rather than a link farm. The basic idea from is sound: useful, well-documented themes attract downloads and demo visits. and point toward visibility and content, which is essential. The technical point from about themes being "no-follow by default" should be verified in context - link behavior depends on where links are placed (footer, docs, demo content) and on plugins or extra code.

Practical checklist: make a unique landing/demo page for each theme (screenshots, features, changelog, install docs, SEO-friendly title and meta). Publish a short how-to or use-case post per theme to capture long-tail searches. Build a simple lead funnel (email signup, premium upgrade, support plans) so traffic converts instead of only raising raw link numbers. Keep distributed theme code transparent and minimal: avoid embedding hidden backlinks in theme files (that creates a link-scheme risk and long-term support headaches). Optimize demos for speed and mobile-first responsiveness so search engines and users see a real product, not a thin download page.

Safe footer attribution example (clear and easy for users to inspect):

<footer>
  <p>Theme by <a href="https://example.com">ExampleBrand</a></p>
</footer>

For paid placements mark links with rel="sponsored"; for user-generated attribution use rel="ugc"; otherwise a normal link is acceptable. Avoid auto-inserting links into sites that end users cannot easily remove.

Measure outcomes (downloads, demo visits, email signups, referral conversions) and iterate. A free-themes site delivers the best long-term value when it supports content, conversion, and maintenance efforts rather than serving solely as an SEO link source.

I believe WP templates come now with "no-follow" as default. Just make sure you disable the no-follow setting so you get some credit from the links.

Maybe or not it will be going to work for you in promoting your commercial site, it is a good way to attract users with providing them with free software products like "free wordpress themes" but you must focused first on how to optimize this plan site to make it visible to everyone. Then, maybe that's the time that you can make used or gain benefits from it.

OK!

If you are going to build a WP site to promote other sites why not just use the WP as a blog. If you cannot blog about the businesses you are in directly then blog about a subject related to the businesses. Have some fun with it.
