Elementor is a great WordPress plugin that helps create custom pages and posts.
Elementor is a premier WordPress Builder that sits in the upper echelon alongside Divi; its unmatched user interface, features, and selection of templates make it clear why Elementor has become so popular. It’s no surprise that this page builder continues to be one of the top choices for many webmasters.
Elementor has a visual editor that allows you to drag and drop elements onto your page and an advanced coding feature that lets you write custom HTML or CSS. This is great for those who want a “no code” website builder, but its robust enough to create complex layouts if you know CSS.
Elementor widgets
You can drag and drop these elements onto your page, such as a contact form, a gallery, or an image slider. Many widgets are available, making creating the look you want for your website easier.
Elementor Extensions
These are 3rd party tools that add extra features to Elementor. Extensions are available for Sliders, Google Maps, Galleries, and more. This gives you access to a whole new range of features and makes it easier to create the exact look you want for your website. Crocoblocks’ Jet Elements provides many useful extensions in one package that replaces dozens of plugins.
Elementor Templates
Elementor also comes with a library of professionally designed templates that you can use to create pages quickly. The templates are fully customizable, and you can easily change the look of any page with a few clicks.
Elementor is available in two different pricing plans – personal and business.
The personal plan is a great choice for those who don’t need the more advanced features and can get by with the free version of Elementor. For those who want all the bells and whistles, there is an upgrade to the business plan with additional features such as revision history and white labeling.
Reasons to upgrade to Pro
- Premium Support, incl. Live Chat
- Custom Fonts & Adobe TypeKit
- Popup Builder
- Header and Footer Builder
- 3rd party integrations e.g. Mailchimp, Aweber
In short, if you are building a personal site, you can get by with Elementor Free, but the moment you start with commercial projects, the time savings and the sheer number of features in Pro more than offsets the cost.
Pricing
Elementor Pro pricing is broken into several tiers based on the number of sites you plan on using it for.
- Essential offers one website with a license at $59/year!
- Pro covers three site websites at $99/yr
- Expert plan support twenty-five websites at $199/yr
- An agency plan is available for companies needing to support 1000 websites at 399/yr.
Overall, Elementor is a great plugin that’s worth the price tag
Elementor may not be perfect, but the convenience and swiftness of building professional-looking webpages balance out any extra page bloat. This is a calculus many clients are willing to accept.
