Introduction
If you have ever wondered how top grid sites maintain a polished, professional appearance, the answer is often in the footer design. Many beginners ignore the footer, but it is an important part of your website for navigation, branding and SEO. In this tutorial, I will show you how to create a fully responsive footer in element wheels, step by step. Towards the end, you will know how to design a footer that looks fantastic on desks, tablets and mobile, while increasing WordPress SEO.
What is a footer and why does it matter?
A footer is the lower part of your site. It may seem little, but it earns several purposes:
- Navigation menus: Guide users to important pages.
- Social media icons: Encourage commitment.
- Contact info and forms: Make it easy for visitors to reach you.
- Copyright & Legal Info: Build trust and protect content.
- Call-to-action buttons: Increase conversions subtly.
A well -designed footer not only helps visitors, but also signals search engines that your site is structured and reliable. Even a small fine adjustment in distance or color contrast in the bottom text can dramatically improve user confidence.

Creating a footer in Elementor is easy when you know the steps. Let’s dive in.
1. Using Elementor Pro Footer Text Builder
- Open WordPress -Dashboard → Painter → ThemeBews → Footer Text.

2. Create a customized footer without coding
Even if you don’t have Elementor Pro:
- Use Footer strokes in WordPress.
- Add menus, social icons or textWidgets.
- Stack multi-column setup vertically.
Unique Tip: Try using a transparent background with subtle shadow to make your footer blend naturally with your page content. Most tutorials miss this tiny detail, but it makes your footer look professional without heavy design.
3. Sticky Footer Elementor Tutorial
A sticky footer stays at the bottom even if the page content is short:
- Select your footer section → Advanced → Motion Effects → Sticky → Bottom.
- Make sure it doesn’t overlap content on mobile.
- Test on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
Pro Tip: When I first created a sticky footer, it blocked some buttons on mobile. I fixed it by adding 20px padding at the bottom, and it worked perfectly.
Making Your Footer Fully Responsive
Responsiveness is key. Your footer should look great on every device.
