Creating a simple website or blog on the WordPress platform is easy. It’s a bit like buying a suit of clothing at a department store. You will have a limited selection of colors for the jacket and pants, which will be an approximate but not an exact fit; but you cannot choose the material or influence the design.
Creating a WordPress website or blog to your specific requirements is more difficult, and may be better than having a custom-made suit. It will fit you perfectly, and you have full control over what materials are used, as well as all the design details.
The challenge:
Unless you know how to use and edit PHP, HTML, and Javascript, which are the programming languages WordPress uses, and you know how to write and edit a CSS style sheet, whatever it is, you have to rely on trial and error to find a theme you like and all the necessary plugins to make your site work without conflicts with each other.
You can even pay a developer to tweak your chosen theme, only to find out that you have to pay to have the tweak redone when the theme is updated or compromised with its design choices. That’s like buying a suit “off the peg” and then paying the tailor to adjust it to fit you best, but still not an exact fit. Many of us have gone down this path not knowing that there is an easier way to design our web pages to our exact requirements.
The solution:
There is a popular tool that allows you to compose the page layout of your WordPress blog or website. It’s called Visual Composer: Page Builder for WordPress. It does what it says on the side of the box. No programming knowledge is required as this tool works visually. The front-end, that’s the bit we use, is drag and drop. What could be more easy? For those who prefer to work under the hood, the back-end is also fully programmable.
With over 45 design elements to choose from or use in combination, you have full control over the appearance, size, and scrolling of your design as it will appear on any device. That means your blog or website will look great when viewed on a smartphone, tablet, full-size computer screen, or smart TV. Also, it will be SEO friendly.
I am not a website designer. Like many people, I built my websites to publish my content. People like me, or those who don’t have time to design their own layout, will find the 40 pre-built templates provided with Visual Composer: Page Builder for WordPress offers more than enough options without having to dabble in design, programming or shortcodes! You even have the option to add visual composition plugins to enhance your design.
Taking your design to the next level:
Visual Composer – Page Builder for WordPress can help us design a responsive blog or website that looks great on any device. That, however, is not the whole story. What about plugins and how can we avoid any conflicts between them? Visual composer plugins take your site to the next level for a solution that is as simple as it is elegant.
