If you have worked with the paid themes before you might have an idea about how some themes come poorly optimized with unnecessary stuff that ultimately just slows down your site.

And if you are going to work with some page builders like Elementor then a lightweight theme would be just perfect for your big or small website. The lesser the better!

That is why choosing a good theme is very important. We may not realize it in the beginning but it plays a very powerful role in your website development.

There are numerous themes available on the web compatible with Elementor but here I am listing 3 best free WordPress themes by their great performance. It is very easy to customize these themes as per your needs and requirements.
