Why Should You Join the Digital Marketplace?
To begin with, both experienced and beginner web designers will benefit from selling website templates on the digital market.

This is an online market where your digital products can acquire better recognition and customer reach.

How to Make Money in the Digital Marketplace?
The quality of digital products you sell on the market directly influences your earnings. The better quality products are priced higher and tend to get top client rankings. TemplateMonster marketplace provides each client with an opportunity to express their opinion about the web theme they purchased by leaving a comment on the product page.
Also, there is a rating system applied to every item, so your income greatly depends on how good the customer feedback is.
There are other things you need to know! TemplateMonster offers its clients seasonal promo campaigns, providing them with discounts for buying premium website templates. Vendors can decide if they want to apply discounts to their digital items or if they wish to sell them at the regular price. Promote your website templates!
In addition, make sure that you reach the maximum potential audience involved in order to generate higher profits. It is TemplateMonster’s policy to promote new vendors and goods through their own channels. However, as a vendor, you can also promote your products through your website, blog, social media, affiliate program, etc.
Being a vendor makes you responsible for the profits that you will generate.
Exclusive or Non-exclusive Digital Products
There are two types of products accepted by the TemplateMonster marketplace – exclusive and non-exclusive website templates. Exclusive digital products means you can sell them at TemplateMonster.com only, which will result in your earning up to 70% commission from each sale.
If the products are non-exclusive you can also sell them on other sites, but in this case the maximum commission from each sale will be 40%. Vendors can decide if they want their items to be exclusive or non-exclusive.
Vendors can submit the following types of digital products to the digital marketplace:
- WooCommerce Templates

Important to mention, the cost of the template directly depends on its quality and the availability of customer support. You can change the final cost of the digital product within a 15% price range.

ThemeForest has standard license which really unclear. Talk to Envato people make me lost hope.
Theme author said can use for many website, but later Envato contact and demand more money.
Pay more than $5000 for a theme and that for only 1 website?
Better I pay to theme clubs out there.
