Why use Elementor?
Elementor is the shooting star in the page builder sky. Young, hip and modern, the tool is conquering the hearts of website operators and agencies. The use and the community are growing fast and steadily.
The increasing dissemination in turn has further positive effects:
- Many plugins want to be compatible with Page Builder and adapt themselves.
- Hosters adjust their systems to him, so you can build on optimal conditions here.
- External Plugins are being developedto extend the Page Builder in a meaningful way.
Advantages of Elementor
As a digital agency, we create websites with Elementor when the site needs to impress with movement. Because a good web design also uses the Movement of the elements for better usability.
The following effects can be implemented without individual programming:
- extensive hover effects on buttons, images and many other elements;
- Movement effectsbased on the user's viewport, i.e. an element is displayed once, e.g. from the left, when the user has reached a certain point on the page;
- Movement effects based on the Scrolling behaviour of the user, i.e. if the user scrolls down, a headline, for example, becomes larger and a background becomes coloured. If the user then scrolls up again, this effect is reversed.
The matching Elementor theme
Numerous WordPress themes use compatibility with Elementor as a selling point. From our experience, the use of the free Elementor theme "Hello" is completely sufficient. You don't need a premium theme to work with PageBuilder.
Why is there a Pro Licence?
The free version of Elementor does not include all the possibilities it can offer. For a professional website we recommend the Pro version, in order to full functional scope and to contribute to the further development of the software.
Storytelling tools are included
Elementor has the right tools for this (in the Pro version). Thanks to sensibly used interactions, the user is "tied" to the website and the time on site increases significantly. Of course, the effects must add value to the content and be related to the goal of the website.
Agency experience with this page builder
With Elementor, it was possible to implement a responsive design very early and relatively easily. In addition, the impressive motion effects, which are not only oriented to the viewpoint but also to the scrolling of the mouse, were already introduced in 2019. The development of further functions over the years shows that the developers have an "ear to the customer". Valuable functions enrich the Page Builder in close time intervals without the quality suffering. In the meantime, laOlaWeb has already built or revised more than 50 websites with Elementor.
Not recommended: Import of ready-made elements
The Page Builder also offers predefined layouts and elements that you can simply load into your library. Similar to the import of demo data in WordPress themes, however, caution is advised here. Because you import a lot of "ignorance" with one click. As a result, you have to spend a long time understanding the imported layouts or templates in order to be able to adapt them. Therefore, we recommend not importing the elements but, if at all, rebuilding them.
