What are the key advantages of using Layout Builder instead of just creating templates with dynamic content in them?

Hi Greg,

Thanks for reaching out!

The key advantages of using Layout Builder is it allows you to create this repeatable page template for various aspects of your WordPress environment—think blog posts, individual pages, WooCommerce products, taxonomy archives, and more.

Thanks for the reply. So I think I’m hearing the advantage is when you have dynamic content and not necessarily evergreen content?

Hello Gregg,

Yes, you are correct. The Layout Builder can help you build your own custom layout for dynamic pages such as the category, tags, and any other archive pages.

Best Regards.
