Search Engine Optimised Layout: the template structure places the main column before the left and right in the code, but visually in the middle, so that it is crawled first by Google, aiding your search engine optimisation efforts.

Fastest Joomla Template Ever: the theme focuses on performance from techniques such as sprites - using a single image for all the images on the site which lowers HTTP requests - to a streamlined, optimised CSS and PHP structure and many other methods to make Afterburner lightning fast.

Light / Dark Variations: 8 distinct inbuilt style variations, Light and Dark, to maximise the possibilities when using the Afterburner template. Controllable by template manager parameters.
