This is the builder I chose to use on this website. I think they were able to learn a lot from Divi and Elementor and thus offer the best of what each of those builders has to offer. I would argue that they still have a lot of work to do, but I believe they’re only going to get better and better.

Right now Elementor has probably overtaken Divi as the most popular on the market. They have an easy to use drag and drop builder with tons of tutorials and a great Facebook community that’s always there to help. They’re a builder that’s here to stay for the long run.

In my opinion GeneratePress is probably the cleanest looking of these themes. I personally use this theme for this site. A big part of why I chose to put each of these themes on here as my recommendations over Divi is because they’ve been created to achieve very fast loading speeds. GeneratePress Premium also comes with many great looking demo sites as well.

I like the OceanWP theme because they’ve got tons of customization options, and they offer great pre-made designs. I think OceanWP has a bit more to offer in its free version than Astra does. It is also slightly more affordable, which is why I’d consider it to be one of the best premium options on the market today. Check out some of the OceanWP demo sites with the link below.

Short Pixel is a plugin that helps optimize your images. They do this by compressing them to reduce the size while still preserving the image quality. The reduced file size means you’ll have a quicker loading website.

I’ve tried many different caching plugins to improve website speeds, and I believe this is the best one on the market today. If you’re looking to speed up your website try this plugin out combined with Short Pixel.
