For everyone
Faster pages that everyone can use
Your site loads faster
Each page loads only the styles of the blocks on it, from your own site, and no fonts or scripts from other companies. Faster pages keep visitors and help search rankings.
Everyone can use it
Menus, tabs, sliders and dialogs work with the keyboard and screen readers, charts and tables read as words, and moving blocks stay still for visitors who ask for less motion. The checker flags problems as you build.
Switching from GenerateBlocks
Both plugins save ordinary WordPress blocks, so you can install Page Builder Sandwich next to GenerateBlocks, build new pages with it, and move at your own pace. Nothing you built before stops working.
