What is Enfold Theme ?
Who should use Enfold?
I recommend Enfold for those who want to create a complex website with a multitude of features. Since it comes with a professional and multipurpose design, the theme is fit for feature-packed websites that can do multiple things at once.
For those who want a simpler website, I do not recommend the Enfold theme. You can get a niche theme as per your requirement and create your website effortlessly.
For instance – if you want to start a personal blog and that’s all. Then instead of choosing a mega theme, you must look for a personal blog theme. This eliminates the chances of confusion with multiple features and functions.
However, if you plan on starting a personal blog for the time being, but have plans to add a portfolio, and a sell a few items online, then a theme like Enfold is suitable for you.
