What it does
Many small sites only need one page: a short introduction, a list of services, some past work, a few testimonials and a way to get in touch. Rival is built for that layout. Visitors scroll down through each section, and smooth scrolling carries them from one part of the page to the next. The theme suits corporate business sites, creative portfolios, personal blogs and startup landing pages, and it adjusts to phones, tablets and desktop screens.
You build pages visually with the drag-and-drop builder, arranging sections and adding media where you want them. Ready sections for About, Services, Portfolio, Testimonials and Contact give you a starting structure to fill in. Color schemes and typography can be changed to match your brand, and retina-ready graphics keep visuals sharp on high-resolution displays. The theme is described as compatible with plugins such as WooCommerce, Contact Form 7 and Yoast SEO, so you can add a shop, forms or SEO tools.
Best for
- Small businesses wanting a single-page company site
