Visual Composer
Visual Composer is a website-building tool with listed options for blogging, contact forms, and SEO controls. Its Free plan includes 50+ free elements and templates. Paid annual plans each list 300+ content elements and 200+ templates, with the covered website count increasing by tier: Single covers one site for $49 a year, Plus covers five for $99 a year, Accelerate covers 20 for $149 a year, and Agency covers 1,000 for $349 a year. The Lifetime plan is listed at $149 a month for a lifetime license covering one website, with 300+ content elements and 200+ templates. The listed plans therefore distinguish the paid annual tiers chiefly by their website allowances, while their stated element and template counts are the same. The free option has a smaller listed library, but makes it possible to begin without a paid plan. This gives prospective site builders a choice among a free starting point, annual plans with different site limits, and a lifetime-license option.
