No need to learn coding or hire any agency for making your site look cool and work efficiently. There are tons of different page builder Plug-ins available, both paid and free. Today, I’m going to list the best of them respectively to their cost.

Best free Page Builder Plug-ins:

  1. Page Builder by SiteOrigin: Almost every review of WordPress plug-in starts with this simple but useful plug-in. Most importantly, it is completely free of cost.

With this page builder, you can quickly build responsive grid-based contents that adapt to mobile devices with a pixel-perfect accuracy.

That’s why, even if your design taste changes, your contents will come along with any themes you want to move into. Besides, its widget bundle has every standard widget to suit your needs.  

  1. Beaver Builder Lite: Most people think that Beaver Builder is a paid plug-in due to their paid service “Beaver Builder Pro.” The light version doesn’t charge any subscription fee unless the user wants to upgrade to the pro version.

Though Beaver Builder Pro has many more facilities than Beaver Lite, it’s enough for small business owners who want to customize their web page quickly and efficiently.

Beaver Builder Lite works on the front-end of WordPress. It’s a comprehensive package of Content Modules to help you in building attractive layouts with an intuitive drag-drop system. This builder plug-in supports Core, shortcodes and third-party WordPress widgets.

Best paid Page Builder Plug-ins:

  1. Elementor: Elimentor is built from the ground up for speed, and you’ll instantly notice how quick and responsive it is. It is actually a live plug-in. Because of that, you’ll be able to see the edits as you do them. It has unlimited widgets with common elements. From the basic text and Image widgets to advanced sliders, Accordions, Testimonials, icons, tabs, social media, etc. Each comes with separate settings. Elementor has ready-to-use templates. You can just click and edit any item to publish that into your website.
  1. Divi: Divi is a fast WordPress page builder that has over 20 templates for different kinds of websites. You can also create your own layout. Simple widgets are also available to use with Divi, and you can get a template from one Divi installation to another. But due to its extensive use of shortcodes, you can’t switch themes easily.
  1. Themify Builder: You don’t have to buy this plugin separately. If you buy a WordPress theme from Themify. You can also buy and use the stand-alone version of that plug-in if you don’t want to use their themes.

But if you are using one already, you’ll get Themify Builder in your system automatically. It has several ready-to-use modules that can be added to your posts and pages. Themify Builder allows you to edit your site from admin area as well as from the live site. By editing the live site, you get to see the changes you made instantly.

As a matter of fact, all of these plug-ins above have similar features and functions. What makes them separate is their pricing and a few advanced features which are only available in the paid versions. It’s up to you if you want to pay for the plug-in or not. Unless you are a dominant entrepreneur in your industry, a free plug-in is enough to back you up.
