Whether or not you’re celebrating Thanksgiving, I wanted to Thank you! ??

That’s the first thing I want to say to each and every one of you.

It’s Thanksgiving week and I don’t want to miss the opportunity to thank you all for standing by us, believing in our products, and taking us this far.

There may be several times I’ve said this, but each time it’s special.

When I think of you, all I feel is the pride to have won so many hearts and your trust over the years. It only takes a quick glance at Astra WordPress.org reviews to see how each day the theme we built impacts people’s life. It’s an honor and a privilege for us all here at Brainstorm Force.

Things to Share This Thanksgiving!

Over the last couple of years, we found that Astra quickly turned into one of the most popular WordPress themes.

1282 new websites start using Astra every day. That’s almost a new website every minute!  ?

Astra is one of the few themes that powers over 500,000+ websites. Not only does Astra power an incredible number of sites, but it is the most loved and fastest growing theme that has over 2,900+ 5 star reviews on WordPress.org.

All Thanks to you! ??
