Make sure your theme fits one or more industries currently available in the [WooCommerce themes store](https://woocommerce.com/product-category/themes). It's important that the theme offers enough originality and distinctiveness in its design, while keeping it familiar, in order to be distinguished from other themes on the WooCommerce theme store. Your theme should avoid copying existing themes on the WooCommerce theme store or other WordPress theme marketplaces.
