The best WordPress builder plugins are very easy to use and an efficient way to create great looking pages. So, a workflow that involves site design in WP and deployment as a static site is useful. This Simply Static plugin enables that with its output. However, keep in mind that some page builders produce particularly dense mark-up with a lot of unnecessary element nesting.
