This does not mean that you will have a cookie cutter website. You can easily customize the look of your site so it has its own unique appeal.

8. Plugins – Plugins are little add-ons that provide different features for your site. There are many plugins from which you can choose. For example: there is a plugin that schedules and displays events on your site. This is great if you have special offer sales, do webinars, classes or online parties. There is another plugin that will make your site mobile ready.
