What Will YOU Build With WordPress Thrive Architect?
Thrive Architect is not the only visual editor for WordPress, but it’s the only one that is laser focused on business websites, built by DIY entrepreneurs.
Make a proud homepage with a high conversion rate.
Your homepage is most likely one of your site’s most popular pages. Is it giving you the impression you want? Is it attracting visitors and increasing conversions? You can utilize one of our templates to create a gorgeous, professional-looking homepage, or you can alter the layout of your existing homepage by adding columns, horizontal opt-in forms, a stylish gallery of your blog entries, social share buttons, and more using the Thrive Architect page builder.
Make Sales Pages that Make You Look Like a Pro Copywriter
Users of WordPress despise sales pages. If you’ve ever attempted to create a sales page using the WordPress editor, you know it wasn’t designed to create the type of layout you’ll need. And, forget about the design, what about the copy!? Don’t worry, Thrive Architect has everything you’ll need to create outstanding sales pages. Furthermore, we’ve given tutorialized sales page templates that make fill-in-the-blanks copywriting a breeze.
Landing Pages to Demonstrate Your Business and Expand Your Email List
A larger mailing list is required for every internet business. That’s why we’ve created a library of optimized landing pages for you to utilize to promote your free offers and build your email list. Many a great business started with a simple landing page to generate leads and validate a concept. That’s the type of page you can make in record time with Thrive Architect!
Create beautifully formatted blog posts to increase traffic and shareability.
Blogging is changing, and you can’t just compose a wall of text and submit it to stay current. Well-formatted material, which includes things like highlight boxes, styled lists, photos and other media, click-to-tweet quotes and more, has long been proven to increase interaction. That’s why the Thrive Architect toolset includes all of those components.
Pages for Webinars, Product Launches, and More…
Whatever your marketing approach, we have a collection of pages that will work for you. You can quickly create all of the pages you’ll need to promote, collect leads for, and end a live webinar event. We’ve also made it easier than ever to put together a professional-looking product launch sequence to aid in the launch of your next venture.
Do you want to be fancy? Here are a few of the advanced features that this WordPress page builder has to offer.
We believe in swift execution and getting your information and ideas out there as soon as feasible. However, we don’t want to limit your creativity, so if you’re a more experienced user (or simply enjoy tinkering), Thrive Architect has you covered.
Ultra-Flexible Column Layouts
Want to create a column layout? Easy: just drop elements next to each other. No special column container, row, segment section or whatever else needed when using our page builder. Want to change the layout, easily add, remove and drag-and-drop resize columns anytime.
Attention-Grabbing Text & Image Combinations
Add background images with text overlayed on them as a visually striking section anywhere on your pages. And because text on images is often difficult to read, we’ve made it extra easy for you to add colored overlays or gradient overlays to your images. This way, you can add your brand colors to images and make the text really pop!
Get that Glossy Magazine Look With Total Font Customization
With Thrive Architect, you have total control over typography. Thanks to our typeface options and access to over 700 custom fonts, you can create beautiful, poster- and magazine-style text layouts, make your titles stand out and give your site “uniquely you” look.
Full-Width Layouts With a Wow Factor
Create a background that spans the entire screen width – no matter which theme you use and no matter what screen your visitor sees your content on. Create vertical split layouts for an added wow factor.
Advanced, Attention Grabbing Hover Effects
You can easily apply hover effects to all elements. But we’ve taken it a step further: with our page builder you can even apply hover effects to everything inside a container element, on hover of that container element.
Style Every Detail, No Coding Needed
Want to tweak the roundedness of a button corner? Add a subtle drop-shadow effect? Add an outline, but only on one side? You can do it all, with ease and with a live updating preview as you make your changes.
Ensure that your mobile visitors have the best possible experience.
Most websites now receive more than 50% of their traffic from phones and other mobile devices. Out of the box, every template in Thrive Architect and everything you create with this plugin is mobile responsive. Most of the time, if you just construct your page and don’t worry about it, the end product will look nice on both mobile phones and tablets. We understand, though, that you desire more control. You also want to be able to provide the finest possible experience regardless of screen size if you’re creating complicated and distinctive layouts.
Because of that, there are 3 major mobile responsiveness features in Thrive Architect:
Instantly Preview Your Page on Different Screen Sizes
As you build your page, you’re always only 2 clicks away from checking what it looks like on different screen sizes. No page reloads needed.
Toggle the Visibility of Elements and Entire Content Blocks
For any element (or any container with multiple elements in it), you can define which screen sizes it should be shown or hidden on. That way, you can create the perfect layout for every screen size.
Tweak Every Detail With Mobile Responsive Editing
To make it even easier and faster for you, you can even tweak the layout and position of elements to be different on different screen sizes. No duplicate elements with show/hide needed.
A boring website is one that is static. While we don’t recommend overloading a site with animations and actions, when used correctly, these elements can help your website be more effective. You can quickly apply entry animations, hover effects, tooltips, animate text on the screen, and more to any element.
This is not front end editing:
This is front end editing
The reason we don’t settle for lazy editing is that these small differences add up to make a big difference. Building a simple landing page involves between 70 and 150 interactions with the page (clicking something, editing something…). A more complex homepage or sales page can involve 1,000 interactions or more. If you have to wait a little longer on each of those interactions, that adds up. And if you have to save a change before you see the result, then go back and edit again, save again, etc., it can double or triple the number of interactions you have to do, to finish your page.

It’s at the price point where it’s affordable for anybody, somebody just getting started, but it’s at the level of quality where it can scale with you and you can build a million dollar business off of it.
We started using Thrive a few months ago and are beyond impressed. As the owner of a digital agency I’ve noticed an increase in conversions since we switched and I continue to be impressed with pretty much every aspect!
I would heartily recommend Thrive Suite because there is so much value. In addition, I am not a coder or even a website builder but Thrive plugins make it so much easier. I can create everything myself which of course, is much less expensive. Besides, it is fun!
