How this was measured
October 25, 2026. For each page we fetched the HTML signed out, then every stylesheet and script it references from the site's own WordPress paths, plus inline style and script blocks, and gzipped each at the same level. Images, fonts and third-party tags are excluded so the number reflects the builder and theme, not the content or the analytics.
Pages: Divi Digital Marketing Home demo, Avada Digital Agency demo, and GF Builder 2.48.0's Home, service business pattern with the Modern pack on WordPress 7.1.3. The GF page carried more markup than either demo (1,270 elements against 865 and 328).
Elementor is not charted. Its official kit demos block direct visits outside its preview frame, so they could not be measured the same way.
How each one builds a page.
