Last updated on Aug 27, 2020 by Alexandra Bateman

Many people want to build a website without having to worry about writing any code. If that sounds like you, then you have a couple of options. You could hire a developer, but that could cost you a lot of money. Or, you could use a WordPress page builder to help you design your perfect website.

Page builders allow you to skip the code and instead create your website and web content using ready-made drag and drop content elements. If it sounds easy enough, that’s because it is! Page builders were designed to make creating a customized website simple for every user without forcing them to sacrifice functionality or design.

You’ll find plenty of reviews on WordPress page builders online, but few compare to Elementor. This page builder powers the websites of over 5,000,000 professionals in all kinds of industries.
