Swagger Magazine WordPress Review Theme

Swagger is a premium magazine-style WordPress theme from ThemeForest that allows you to create unlimited custom review “mini-sites” within your main website. That means you can load up your site with tons of content and then present it to your users in an organized way using just one or multiple mini-sites. Swagger’s front page will grab content from your mini-sites and display it all together in an awesome, content-rich page to give your users the best user experience possible. Swagger is guaranteed to increase both the average length of time that your users spend on your site and the average number of pages that they view.
