Can I use free website templates for business?

What is the best free HTML template for a business website?

Best free HTML business templates: HTML5 UP's 'Phantom' and 'Hyperspace' for modern multi-page business sites, Start Bootstrap's 'Business Frontpage' for Bootstrap-based layouts. All require attribution or are Bootstrap-dependent. UIXDraft ($35, no attribution, 180+ templates) is the best option when client presentation and commercial rights matter.

Is UIXDraft free?

UIXDraft is not free — it costs $35 one-time for 180+ HTML/CSS/JS templates with a commercial licence. The $35 covers unlimited use on unlimited client projects with no attribution required. Free alternatives (HTML5 UP, Start Bootstrap) are available but require attribution links or are Bootstrap-dependent.
