A milestone moment: 10 years of innovation

Ten years ago, we set out with a simple mission: to give Web Creators the freedom and power to create beautiful, pixel-perfect WordPress websites. Since then, Elementor has grown into the most popular website builder for WordPress, powering over 20 million sites globally.

Over the years, as the web has changed, we realized that being a “page builder” was only the beginning. Our mission has grown with you. We aren’t just giving you an Editor anymore; we are providing the complete infrastructure to lead the future of the web.

The evolution: from the Editor to a complete platform

For a long time, Elementor was defined by the Editor. It was the “magic wand” for WordPress. But for the professional Web Creator, we know that building the site is just one part of the job. The rest of your day is spent making those sites faster, more inclusive, and managing client needs.

To understand where we are going, it helps to look at some of the milestones that brought us here:

  • 2016: Drag & drop Editor – Live drag & drop Editor for creating pixel-perfect websites with advanced design capabilities.
  • 2018: Theme Builder – A system for designing headers, footers, and dynamic templates across an entire site.
  • 2019: Hello Elementor Theme – A minimalist, lightweight theme framework providing a fast, blank canvas for custom design.
  • 2022: Cloud hosting – High-performing, auto-scaling cloud hosting for WordPress.
  • 2023: Elementor AI – A native assistant to generate code, layouts, and images directly within the Editor.

While our first years were focused on giving you the best tools to create and edit websites, we later expanded into additional site requirements like planning, optimization, and management.

  • 2024: Image optimization – Image compression that keeps pages fast, for delivering high-speed websites that never compromise on design.
  • 2024: Site mailer – Reliable email deliverability tools that ensure transactional emails reach the inbox every time.
  • 2025: Accessibility – Scanning and remediation tools that ensure websites are inclusive and compliant by default.
  • 2025: Site planner – An AI-powered tool for creating wireframes in minutes based on business goals.

“Ten years ago, we were a page builder. Today, we are the standard for professional creation on WordPress. Only the leading brand in the ecosystem can make a move this bold – consolidating an entire infrastructure into a single, unified experience. Elementor is 10, but this is just the beginning.”

— Yoni Luksenberg, CEO of Elementor

And now, ten years later, after listening to your feedback about including all these in the website builder, we’re bringing the entire experience together with Elementor One. Giving you a full, comprehensive website builder for WordPress.

A unified workflow: one menu, zero friction

We’ve moved beyond the fragmented experience. With Elementor One, we’ve consolidated all our capabilities into a single, unified menu within your WordPress dashboard. You no longer need to jump between different locations to find Elementor features. 

We’ve introduced a new home screen that brings together creation, performance optimization, and site management into one consolidated location in the WordPress dashboard. 

This streamlined workspace makes navigation and workflows easier and more seamless.

Coming soon:  expanded capabilities and upcoming innovations 

We are continuously adding more professional-grade capabilities to enhance the value you get from Elementor. This includes Cookie Consent, a privacy solution that manages user consent without external scripts. We will also be introducing Manage, a centralized hub for monitoring website performance and executing bulk updates across multiple sites from a single dashboard. 

Looking ahead, we are expanding our AI implementation even further. 

Inside the Editor, AI-powered widget creation will allow Web Creators to build custom widgets using natural language. 

Across the broader environment, our Native AI Layer for WordPress will enable the creation of full components and landing pages, while providing a native generative infrastructure to manage your entire website. 

These will ensure that Elementor One remains a robust, future-proof foundation that grows alongside your business.

Furthermore, we are preparing to launch Editor V4: the Atomic Editor, a complete reimagining of the Editor. Built on a professional CSS-first framework, Editor V4, introduces Atomic Components: modular, lightweight building blocks that offer unprecedented performance and cleaner code. 

With features like global Classes and Variables, you’ll be able to build comprehensive design systems that scale effortlessly, ensuring your work remains at the cutting edge of web standards.
