Spruced Up Blogs FAQ

 

The Spruced Up blog templates are made for WordPress bloggers using a page builder called Elementor. 

All the templates are super easy to customize to

Elementor is a page builder. This means that with this WordPress plugin you can easily make visually appealing and responsive pages without any coding necessary. 
Yes, you will need a blog theme. However, if you use Elementor Pro it does have a theme builder option. That means you can install this free theme ( I use the free theme Hello Elementor) and then use Elementor Pro to actually customize your site.

Elementor has a free and a Pro option. I suggest purchasing the Pro option because it comes with more advanced features. These features are:

  • 50+ Pro Widgets including embedded forms, portfolios, price tables, media carousels, navigation menus, and more!
  • Theme Builder. This will allow you to easily create a custom header, footer, and pop-ups.
  • 10+ Full Website Templates

 

I do not suggest purchasing my templates until you purchase Elementor Pro. A lot of my template layouts use Pro features. I want you to be able to get the most out of your purchase.

Plus, if you would like to use Elementor as a theme builder to design your header and footer you will need the Pro option.

If you purchase Elementor Pro you will get access to several customizable templates with your subscription. However, most of these are not geared towards bloggers and are not always as visually appealing as you may like. 

I have created my Elementor Templates with modern bloggers in mind. Each template is easily customizable and comes with written and video walkthroughs. Basically, I have cut out the entire learning curve plus the work and created the finished product for you. You just need to plug in your text and colors.

In the past, I have designed sites for customers with Elementor, but I found that it was extremely time-consuming and expensive for my clients. 

I created these templates so that you would have an affordable option to get your dream blog.

Honestly, this is the product I wish I had when I started blogging. It would have saved me about a year spent trying to figure out how to design my blog without knowing any coding. It also would have saved me a lot of money in buying different themes trying to find one that actually worked for my blog. 

There is a learning curve, as there is with any new software. However, with my template walkthroughs, you will be well on your way to Elementor stardom in no time!
Yes, the one negative I have found is that page builders do slow down your site a bit. I went through a period of time when I was obsessed with my blog site speed and I was scared to use a page builder. However, by optimizing my settings (which I teach you how to do in the walkthrough of each of my templates) I have been able to keep my site speed super high on both desktop and mobile.
Yes! All the Spruced Up blog templates are optimized to look amazing on both tablets and mobile.

I have created an amazing resource library that can usually answer most questions related to setting up your template.

My team is always available by email to help.

Elementor also offers excellent support for questions about using the page builder.

Unfortunately, at the moment we do not offer custom WordPress templates. We just do not have the time. 

Good question. Just follow this link to purchase Elementor Pro. I suggest purchasing the Personal subscription for now. If you need to, you can always upgrade your subscription later. 

You will then enter your contact and payment info. After clicking “Checkout” you will receive an email with info on how to log into your account. 

When you log into your account scroll down to where it says “Download Plugin”. The plugin will download as a .zip file. 

Then, in your WordPress account go to plugins and click “Add Plugin” “Upload Plugin”. You can then upload your zipped Elementor file. 

Once installed, you will need to add your license key and you will be good to go!
