Are you searching for the top themes to install on a WordPress website using Elementor? Elementor is the leading page builder WordPress plugin at the time of writing, so we are not surprised. Long gone are the days when you needed programming knowledge and spend hours writing code. The plugin eliminates the need to seek themes since many are compatible with its click to edit and drag and drop frontend editing capabilities. It lets you adjust color schemes, spacing, fonts, layout, and content and save updates as you go for undo/backup purposes. However, instead of starting from scratch, we suggest modifying the best WordPress Elementor themes. Let’s begin.
1. Astra
We nearly always mention Astra as an excellent representative of leading WordPress themes, and that includes Elementor. Compatible with Elementor 2.0 and likely further, the fastest-growing theme of all time and one of the most popular choices overall is a superb choice. It’s compatible with 240+ Astra Starter Sites templates you can import, edit, and combine, for starters. Plus, it is responsive, Native AMP integrated, lightweight (<50 KB), loads incredibly quickly, has RTL (right-to-left) and translation integrated, and offers an inbuilt schema markup information for SEO (Search Engine Optimization). In short, Astra is a renowned free and paid choice for any website niche.
2. Hello Theme
It was hard to pick which theme would be the winner, but Hello Theme ultimately ended as the runner-up among the top Elementor themes for WordPress. Many demanding users would disagree and we respect that. Hello Theme comes from the creators of Elementor and is free, minimalistic, beginner-friendly, lightweight, superfast, and ultimately a blank canvas. It’s a great starting point for users who need a distinct look and seek to tweak every aspect. You can also import and edit a lot of compatible Elementor templates and add a WooCommerce store if you need to.
3. Hestia
Hestia is a free and premium one-page theme for WordPress, known as a great choice for authors, Internet personalities, portfolios, businesses, eCommerce stores, and more. It offers full Elementor compatibility and WooCommerce integration, is SEO-friendly, loads quickly, offers WPML for translation and RTL reading, and is responsive for desktop, laptop, and mobile devices. Like others, you can start from the default look or begin tweaking one of many website demos. The Premium version expands the theme design choice and adds priority Customer Support.
4. GeneratePress
GeneratePress is a premium and free WordPress theme focused on niches such as business, eCommerce, and blogs. It is fully Elementor compatible, meaning you can easily modify any website design template from their Site Library. The theme is devised for compatibility with as many plugins as possible. That fact proves useful since the theme offers advanced navigation menu editing tools for header, footer, sidebar, and custom page layouts. Also, if you saw their page builder, don’t fret. It doesn’t conflict, and it even works in unison with Elementor.
5. Sydney
Are you a business owner, a notable employee, or want to publish a portfolio as a freelancer? Sydney is one of the most popular choices for WordPress themes among Elementor users with small businesses or any product or service websites. Available for free on the WordPress Themes repository, the theme is not only suggested by Elementor but has unique Elementor blocks. It also sports WooCommerce integration, and a lot of modern elements such as layout tweaks, Google Fonts, sticky navigation, color scheme control, full sliders, social media icons, parallax backgrounds, translation buttons, and more.
6. OceanWP
OceanWP appears in nearly all our “best WordPress theme” lists because of its versatility and price. More precisely, it is gratis at the WordPress.org theme repository with an optional Pro version if you love it. Although primarily designed for businesses or prominent people, that’s not all. It is multipurpose thanks to its additional compatibility with page builders such as Brizy, Visual Composer (also WPBakery), SiteOrigin, Beaver Builder, and Divi. It is light, customizable, WooCommerce compatible, responsive, Retina-ready, supports RTL and translation, and is built with the latest SEO best practices.
7. Zakra
Zakra is yet another multifunctional, fast, mobile-friendly, SEO-oriented, Google AMP-compatible WordPress theme that offers adaptability. It ships with 65+ premium templates you can import with one click, then customize with Elementor. The demos are well-known to be lightweight, SEO-friendly, and performance-driven. Thus, if you prefer not to make extensive edits and your website niche coincides with one of many templates, the choice is straightforward. The base theme is functional yet free.
8. Marketo
Marketo is a shining example of the “less is more” saying. Although premium, it only offers more than 10 templates, compared to tens or hundreds. However, each one is compatible with many devices and can import various header styles and layouts that drastically adjust its appearance. Like others, it is compatible with all popular browsers and lets users drag and drop and click to edit using Elementor and other page builders. If you need top loading speed, there’s also an HTML-only version. Plus, it ships with over 200 line icons, 600+ Google Fonts, and many high-quality images to help your sales.
9. Seocify
Are you running an online or computer-based business such as an SEO or digital marketing agency? If so, Seocify is a perfect choice. Moreover, its beautiful home and inner page designs (e.g., service, portfolio, contact, case study, testimonials, pricing), simplicity, speed, and modern looks make it a top choice for anyone who needs to showcase projects or lots of data. The theme is versatile, too, in that it features both one-page and multipage layouts, and has handy color scheme sliders, and integrations with the WooCommerce store, Google Fonts, Mailchimp, and more.
10. Pollock
We listed the best WordPress themes for artists, and if Astra didn’t do it for you and others were not Elementor-ready, Pollock is the solution. To be clear, it is not only for art websites. Instead, Pollock is a creativity-driven multipurpose theme for portfolios and businesses such as agencies, startups, studios, software and digital companies, marketing leaders, FinTech institutions, and more. Pollock is affordable, sleek, modern, light, mobile-friendly, and high-tech or simplistic and one-page or multipage, depending on the template. It also ships with MetForm, Mailchimp, ShopEngine, WMPL and Polylang translation plugins, a MegaMenu builder, and over 60 Elementor elements. We also liked the 1200 grid editing system and a frontend Admin panel, as both make customization easier.
