The WooThemes Blog

We didn’t expect anyone to keep track of this, but it’s great to announce that today is officially WooThemes’ first birthday. It is exactly a year ago that we launched WooThemes from the now-defunct Premium News Themes.

A few highlights from the past year includes:

• We released 30 new themes (that’s 2.5 new themes every single month);
• We collaborated with the absolute best-of-the-best designers;
• We have added 3 new permanent members to the WooTeam; and
• About 3 weeks ago we finally launched version 2 of WooThemes (WOO2)!

Pretty WOW, right?

And this wouldn’t be a party if you couldn’t join us in the fun… So instead of our usual x-for-1 promotion deals (which has been targeted at new users), we’ve decided to say thanks and give a little something back to our very loyal WooThemes users. This is what we’ve come up:

• Buy any Standard Package theme for only $15; OR
• Buy any Developer Package theme for only $25.

You’ve come to know us as some crazy kids and we like doing stuff like just giving you some free themes. So as has become fashion around here, we’ve got to celebrate the launch of WOO2 with another 4-for-1 special. I’m tempted *not* to tell you how it works (because if you don’t know how we roll by now, we dunno on which interweb you’ve been living), but here’s the details:

You can basically buy any Standard or Developer Package theme (from our collection), and get any 3 themes of your choice completely free. This offer is available from 17 – 24 June 2009 and we won’t either backdate it to previous purchases or extend it past the 24th.

Enjoy the new themes!

Happy April 1st!

Being April 1st you’ve probably already had a few pranks played on you today.

Here at Woo we are scattered all around the world so unfortunately we can’t cover each others computers with post-it notes, or set Adii’s iPhone in jelly, or move ALL the office furniture into Magnus’s office. Sigh…

Instead we are going to try prank you. Or are we…

If you head on over to the themes page and select a theme to purchase you might find a pleasant surprise… Perhaps you might find you can select 4 themes and only have to pay for 1.

Hurry though April Fools jokes are supposed to be made before midday on April 1st. We’ve extended that a bit, cos we nice people, so you have until midday tomorrow (12am GMT, April 2nd 2009)

First up, we’d like to wish everyone a very prosperous 2009. We are extremely excited about the year ahead and we hope we can count on all of you to join us on this journey. And with a new year, always comes the need to tweak things in order to improve on how we’ve gone about our business before…

So since our previous two sales promotions (the 3 for 1 Halloween & 4 for 1 Xmas Special), being wildly popular – we have decided to take what we have learned from these promotions and integrated it into a new Permanent 2 for 1 Special.

This means that from today onwards, you will be receiving a bonus, free theme (either Single or Developer license, depending on which you have purchased), when you purchase any one of our great themes. With this offer, you will essentially be getting double the value, without having to pay anything extra. This offer also does not have any time limit and will be in place all year long (even though we will definitely do another “4 for 1″ – or maybe even a “6 for 1″ - later this year).

This is just another way that we’d like to show that our users are the most important aspect of our business, whilst we really want to continue increasing the value to our customers. Hope that this latest-value-add will impress all of you even further!

PROCESS

To take advantage of our permanent 2-for-1 offer you simply select the theme you want from our themes list and click on the “Buy this theme” button.

After clicking this button you will be taken to our signup process:

First select either Single or Developer License

Fill in your details and select the bonus them you would like

Today is supposed to be the last day of our Christmas 4-for-1 special , meaning all your Christmas shopping is supposed to be finished.

However, if like me you still haven’t got everything you said you would and you’re now already celebrating this merry time of year we’ve decided to throw you a life line and extend our 4-for-1 special till the end of 2008 , that gives you one more week to take advantage of this fantastic offer!

We thought about changing the offer slightly, and coming up with a clever new catch phrase, but why mess with a winning formula, especially if all you can come up with is this one we found on fail blog .

Happy shopping Woo Users and have a fantastic Christmas!

P.S. See all the special details on the original 4-for-1 offer post here .

P.P.S. This offer will definitely be ending when the clock strikes 12am (GMT) on New Years Eve 2008 . No more extensions.

Ho Ho Ho! Santa has arrived a week early here at WooThemes headquarters, bearing lots of gifts and instructing us to dish them out to you in the form of a 4 for 1 special for all our WooTheme visitors!

We’ve run a 3 for 1 special in the past as our Halloween special, but nothing as daring as this. 4 wonderful WooThemes for the price of 1 !

Santa has assured us this is a sensible business move and will help make a lot of people’s Christmas even more merry!

This offer applies to both Single & Developer Licenses, which means you get the following:

• Buy a Single License for $70 USD and get any 3 other themes (on Single Licenses) of your choice; or
• Buy a Developer License for $150 USD and get any 3 other themes (on Developer Licenses) of your choice.

For the single license special, each of the 4 themes comes with an individual license, so you can use the themes on 4 different websites.

HOW IT WORKS

As with everything in life, there’s some “rules” with regards to the special… Here they are:

1. The special is only valid from 17 December (midnight GMT ) until the end of 24 December 2008 (midnight GMT) the clock strikes 12am on New Years Eve 2008 (we extended the special ) as specified above. No previous purchases will be eligible for this. If you miss the deadline, you will not be able to make use of this special.

To take advantage of this fantastic Christmas present simply select to purchase your favourite theme, for example, our latest theme offering, Abstract (which we collaborated with Veerle Pieters on will be launched with the start of this 4 for 1 promotion – details to follow).
