One of the most common questions we hear is…
“Will I be able to make edits myself?”
When we first started creating WordPress websites, we realized how limited our design options were with the default blocks and working within the confines of our theme. This was not ideal for us or our clients.
There had to be a better way.
It was then we found Elementor and we’ve never looked back!
Elementor was hands down the best page builder we tried. It’s intuitiveness and design versatility won us over. We could now break free from the generic theme page templates and create custom designs! And the best part is it’s super easy for clients to update themselves! It’s everything we could have asked for.
So what is Elementor?
(from Elementor’s website)
Elementor is one the most popular visual drag and drop page builders for WordPress. Currently it powers more than 3 million websites and holds a 4.9 star rating. One of it’s most useful and impressive features is its front-end editing allowing you to make live edits without having to switch between editor and page preview.
Even better, it’s totally free to get started! Yep… free. While they do offer a Pro edition, you really don’t need it to enjoy over 95% of Elementor’s awesomeness…. honestly! It just works!
So what are the benefits of Elementor for you?
- Incredibly easy to edit content: By using Elementor to design our websites we hand over a website that can be effortlessly edited by anyone. Even our most unsavvy tech clients have found editing their website with Elementor to be easy.
- Real-time Preview: It works on the front-end, which means you get instant results as you build a page. You can see your changes in real time.
- With Elementor you can tweak the design of your website to look great on all devices. When you edit a page you can view it in mobile-mode and tablet-mode and make specific changes to mobile or table and those changes will not be carried over to the desktop.
