Elementor Review

Elementor is a page builder available as a plugin for WordPress.

A page builder is literally a “constructor” of web pages, particularly suitable for building landing pages.

Thelanding page is the most important part of the site if you want to generate traffic and convert leads into customers, so it is essential that it is captivating and professional, but above all that is easy and intuitive for the end user and for those who design it.

Here comes the help Elementor, Worpress plugin,  which can be used precisely to improve the pages of the site without having to manually edit the HTML code. In addition, Elementor has a number of useful tools to customize the site and connect it with social and other marketing tools, such as Mailchimp, in order to maximize traffic generation.

Elementor is a really simple page builder to use even if you don’t have experience, but to make the most of the potential of this software and all its features, you need a little study. To do this you can count on the resources made available by Elementor: the academy with video lessons to learn how to use the functions, from the most basic to the most advanced; the blog with always updated articles on the world of marketing and design; webinars with various insights into the world of page builders. There is also a section dedicated to developers, very interesting for those with more advanced skills and who want to learn more about the use of this software.

Ease of use and professional results

Elementor is drag-and-drop. Drag and drop is a mechanism that allows you to move elements from one page to another and allows for quick changes. You can then copy and paste styles from one element to another and from one page to another, greatly simplifying the work of building the website.

Another interesting feature of this plugin is in the auto-completion of the URLs which allows you to avoid errors in the links to the site page.

Elementor is an excellent tool for those who have a limited budget but still want to have professional results, because it does not require particular knowledge of HTML and PHP programming languages and consequently there is not even the need to contact a professional for the construction of the site (which is still the best choice in case of more complex projects)

Templates and Blank pages

There are many templates in the archive to choose from. You can use them as they are, or modify them to fit your project and the result you want to achieve.  When instead you need to free the page from some elements set by WordPress, such as the header, the footer or the sidebar, you can use Elementor Canvas. To be noticed and stand out on the web it is important to take care of the image of the site, even when the site…is not available! Elementor Canvas is a very useful empty template in the build landing pages, but also pages “coming soon”  and those that warn of site maintenance.  Thanks to original templates it is possible to make the page that informs the user of ongoing maintenance less aseptic.

Another utility of Elementor is to be able to work on the front end, modifying the pages directly, without going back to the dashboard and with the possibility of immediately viewing the final result. The plugin also allows you to control  page display on various desktop, tablet and mobile devices.
