Fast loading and clean wordpress websites with (core-based) gutenberg editor!
Gutenberg will evolve into a full-functioning page builder soon
„Gutenberg has three planned stages. The first, aimed for inclusion in WordPress 5.0, focuses on the post editing experience and the implementation of blocks. This initial phase focuses on a content-first approach. … These foundational elements will pave the way for stages two and three, planned for the next year, to go beyond the post into page templates and ultimately, full site customization.”

Why use Gutenberg instead of other page builders?
So, you have chosen wordpress as your preferred free cms for your website – a good choice considering that 38% of all websites use it. However, for designing your website, there are numerous themes and page builders (mostly as plugins) available, both free and paid.
Ok, page builders such as elementor, beaver builder, visual composer, motopress, themify builder, siteorigin or brizy make it easy to design with total freedom and no design limits even for non-professional webdesigners. When there was no wordpress Gutenberg a few years ago, design options with themes and plugins have indeed been limited. However, this has changed significantly with every new Gutenberg update. The combination of a wordpress theme with the Gutenberg page builder meanwhile does set very few limits to layout and page designs.

Considerung the functionality options of Gutenberg and wordpress themes, page builders are rarely needed to create webdesigns of choice. Moreover, there are even concrete drawbacks when you use one of the mentioned builders as a plugin:
Advantages of Gutenberg as a page builder

FAQs to builder2gutenberg
No, there is no way to do so. We have to build page by page with standardized Gutenberg blocks, maybe some additional blocks from gutenberg plugins, that enhance styles
Absolutely, because there are much less incompatibilities, much higher page speed, easier and quicker backend handling, less bulky coding, less bugs and last but not least, no cost involved.
Yes, it might look slightly different because Gutenberg, Theme and CSS adjustments might only get it to 95% of your design before. But we will make sure, it looks all very good. It might even look more professional than before because we use standardized Gutenberg blocks instead of several individual designs of each page.
We are able to transform almost all websites that have been designed with the following builders: elementor page builder, beaverbuilder, Visual Composer, divi, brizy and many more. There is hardly a limit because we manually copy text and pictures into the new Gutenberg blocks.
Simply because we need to look at your website to determine how difficult it is to rebuild it with Gutenberg. Since we have to rebuild page by page, it is more expensive if you have more pages that need to be transformed. However, please be assured that our prices are very competitive to webdesigners because we already have the desired layout at hand and our team is very skilled with wordpress, css and Gutenberg.
It really depends on the complexity of design and content, because the amount of work determines the time, needed to finish the transformation.
We indeed recommend to transform every website to Gutenberg, because of the many advantages Gutenberg offers over other page builders. However, there might be reasons such as trained personel and a high amount of work might suggest that switching is too costy.
