- First between Astra vs Hello (without Elementor)

1.4 |

So, we can see that Astra’s performance is remarkable because of this speed of a theme with all elements and layout.
And it is not surprising that Hell theme without Elementor is less because without Elementor Hello is a plain platform. So, without any theme element Hello speed is just fine.
I am interested in Hello theme speed with Elemntor means after building layout and elements, we can see that it is a little bit high.
But Hello theme performance is not bad after increasing page size and some KB does not affect so much in good Hosting. If you have good and best hosting like BlueHost, WPX then it will be no issue.
So, we can say that Astra’s performance is better and up to mark whereas Hello theme with Elementor is not bad.
