New Freebies Every Week!
We hope you enjoy this week’s Blogger Layout Pack and the Header & Footer freebie that goes along with it. We look forward to hearing your opinions in the comment section below. Make sure you check back next week for more freebies!
What we actually do is that we work on the header and body only but not the footer. A footer must be available due to the following reasons:
The footer is responsible for every post or page to let the visitors know about the maps, location, and details about the blogger.
Divi offers a free and exciting and purposeful footer, which is sometimes free to download.
On the other hand, a header has the best impact on the traffic and the website speed. It is that entry point where people enter by finding the site. Moreover, it is the header that acts as the first paint for the google speed checker. So design it carefully. Overall, your blog is the best because it gets into the inside of wp design aspect in a very well explanatory way with some great illustrations.
Good thing we have this already in Divi, I used to use Divi builder before but since there are no global options for header and footer where I can customize it, I switch to Beaver. INteresting that you have this already and made it FREE for download. We are considering to rebuilding a website to WP and now we are choosing what is the best builder to buy, actually, we are choosing between the 3, Elementor, Divi and Beaver. Hopefully Divi is as light as the other two now 🙂 Do you have free trial 🙂
Great template, thanks a lot for this.
