Here is a complete wordpress tutorial on how to make a hotel booking website with elementor in 2019 for free.

The tools used to make this tutorial are: Hello elementor theme, elementor pro plugin, envato elements plugin, awe booking plugin, wpforms plugin and clever mega menu.

Best thing is, all plugins used in this tutorial are free (besides elementor pro) and can be found the wordpress plugin repository (hello elementor theme, awe booking plugin, wpvivid backup, yoast seo plugin and evanto elements etc)

You don’t need to have prior experience making wordpress websites and this tutorial suits both beginners and intermediate wordpress users.

That aside, i have used elementor page builder plugin which is one of the best drag and drop live editor plugins and comes with bunch of reusable blocks and templates.

Building a hotel booking website comes with whole other bunch of tweaks you have to make that would require a premium version of a plugin like elementor pro, however, in this tutorial i’ll show you how to go around that.

I have also used templates from the envato elements plugins which is free and you to can have it for your next project.

On rounding up this tutorial, i've shared on some of the best practices like wordpress settings (reading, writing, discussion and setting up the permalinks)

I've also shared with you how to test your website for speed and mobile responsiveness, adding a live chat and support system, integrating and setting up with a free hotel booking engine, securing your hotel website, scheduling backups, migrating and restoring your website all for free.

Enjoy the tutorial and if you can, watch in stages so you can follow up later on.
