Description
A lighter Elementor website starts with knowing what to change.
ElementsBoost helps you find what is slowing down your Elementor pages and take action from WordPress. Clean up unnecessary files, give images the space they need, and check your results without editing code.
Start with the free plugin. Add Pro when you want image compression, more control over individual pages, and deeper performance tools.
Find the problem. Make the change. Check the result.
- Scan your page. See practical suggestions for images, fonts, scripts, and page content.
- Find the right element. Use X-Ray to highlight supported findings on your page.
- Choose your changes. Apply supported fixes or adjust the settings yourself.
- Check your work. Scan again and visually review the page on desktop and mobile.
Your page assistant, right inside Elementor
Buraq is the ElementsBoost panel inside the Elementor editor. It brings page checks, suggestions, supported fixes, and rescanning into the place where you already build your website.
You can scan published pages and private previews of drafts. Supported actions include undo, so you can restore the change if you need to.
What you get for free
- Page checks inside Elementor: find image, layout, font, and content issues, with X-Ray highlighting for supported elements.
- Image dimensions: add missing width and height to supported Media Library images to help reduce layout shifts.
- Font and asset controls: manage supported Elementor styles, icons, animations, sliders, and WordPress extras.
- Local Google Fonts: download supported Google Fonts files and serve them from your website.
- Widget controls: turn off unused widgets while protecting widgets found in your saved content.
- Add-on insights: see which supported Elementor add-ons load files on your pages.
- Practical page fixes: review image alt-text suggestions, remove eligible empty containers, and apply supported YouTube lazy loading.
- Test Mode and Settings History: preview supported performance settings as an administrator and restore earlier settings.
- Auto-Revert: monitor supported settings changes for detectable problems.
- Conflict Guard: review supported plugin interactions and available fixes.
- PageSpeed tests: run on-demand Google Lighthouse lab tests for your homepage or the page you are editing.
- Meta descriptions: write descriptions for posts and pages, with checks to avoid duplicating descriptions from supported SEO plugins.
- Optional visitor measurements: collect local LCP, CLS, and INP measurements when an administrator enables this feature.
Want more control? Choose ElementsBoost Pro.
Keep the free tools and add features for larger sites, client projects, and more detailed optimization:
- Compress images on your server: optimize Media Library images, create supported WebP or AVIF versions, process images in bulk, and restore backups.
- Control assets page by page: use Lean Mode to manage supported libraries where you need them.
- Preview before going live: inspect supported changes privately with Safe Preview.
- Prioritize visible content: generate mobile and desktop Critical CSS.
- Delay non-critical JavaScript: use delay and defer controls for supported scripts.
- Track progress: compare PageSpeed results, keep page history, and schedule monitoring.
- Improve page structure: use Deep Scan for heading and meta-description checks, with supported actions.
Compare Free and Pro and choose the tools that fit your website.
Works alongside your cache plugin
Keep your cache plugin. ElementsBoost helps reduce the work your page needs before caching. Supported settings changes also clear page caches in common plugins, including WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, and WP Super Cache.
External Services
Google Fonts
When Self-host Google Fonts is enabled, ElementsBoost downloads the CSS and font files of the Google Fonts stylesheets a page uses (Elementor typography included) from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com, stores them locally, and serves the local files later.

- Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Optional ElementsBoost Diagnostics
Diagnostics is off by default. If an administrator enables it, ElementsBoost sends a report immediately and then once a week to https://elementsboost.com/wp-json/elementsboost-telemetry/v1/collect.
The report contains:
- WordPress, Elementor, PHP and plugin versions, theme name, language, and multisite status.
- Counts of active plugins, Elementor pages, disabled widgets, scans, issues, images, conflicts, and asset rules.
- Installation date and age, plus the on/off state of documented ElementsBoost controls.
- A random installation identifier, created locally and removed when the plugin is uninstalled.
The report and request headers do not include your site address, page addresses, page content, plugin names, WordPress usernames, or email addresses. Requests identify the plugin as ElementsBoost/<version>. The random identifier is not based on your site address.

ElementsBoost Benchmarks
The free plugin does not display a benchmarks card and makes no benchmarks request on its own. When an add-on such as ElementsBoost Pro adds that card to the dashboard, the dashboard retrieves aggregated benchmarks from https://elementsboost.com/wp-json/elementsboost-telemetry/v1/benchmarks for administrators. The request sends no site or user data (it uses a neutral ElementsBoost/<version> user agent) and is cached for six hours.
Compatibility Intelligence Feed
Compatibility alerts are off by default. Only after an administrator switches them on does the plugin download a curated feed from https://elementsboost.com/wp-json/elementsboost-intel/v1/intelligence-feed and refresh the local copy weekly. The request uses a generic ElementsBoost/<version> user agent and has no site or user data in its URL, headers, or body. Switching compatibility alerts off unschedules feed requests and suppresses plugin-activation compatibility notices.
Google PageSpeed Insights
When an authorized user runs an on-demand test in Free or a benchmark in Pro, the selected public page URL is sent to Google PageSpeed Insights. Free stores the latest result locally. Pro adds history, comparisons, scheduled monitoring, and support for a site-owner API key. Google quotas and policies apply.

FAQ
-
Do I need to know how to code?
-
No. You work with settings, page checks, and supported fixes inside WordPress and Elementor.
-
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
-
Free gives you page checks, site-wide controls, image-dimension support, supported fixes, and PageSpeed tests. Pro adds image compression and conversion, per-page asset control, Safe Preview, Critical CSS, JavaScript controls, and performance history.
-
Can I try changes before visitors see them?
-
Test Mode lets administrators preview supported frontend performance settings. Content edits and security settings have their own scope, so review the notice beside each action. Pro adds Safe Preview for supported per-page optimizations.
-
Can I undo a change?
-
Settings History stores up to 30 settings snapshots. Supported page actions have their own undo controls. Pro image optimization also supports restoring backed-up images.
-
Does the free plugin compress images?
-
Image compression and WebP/AVIF conversion are Pro features. Free helps with missing image dimensions and reviewable alt-text suggestions.
-
Will this improve my PageSpeed score?
-
Removing unnecessary work can help your pages load faster. Your results depend on your design, hosting, images, and other plugins. Compare the same page before and after a change, and check how it looks and works.
-
Which images can receive missing dimensions?
-
Images that WordPress can match to local Media Library files. Background images and externally hosted images may need adjustments in your page design.
-
Does ElementsBoost replace my cache or SEO plugin?
-
No. It works alongside them. Its focus is Elementor page optimization, practical fixes, and performance checks.
