How to Create a High-Converting Pricing Table in WordPress

A high-converting pricing table gives clear answers to these questions. It shows the differences between plans, highlighting the best option. It removes doubt. It helps users compare features fast and understand value at a glance.

When the layout is clean and the message is clear, people feel more confident to choose a plan. In this post, we’ll cover a step-by-step guide on how to create a high-converting pricing table in WordPress. Be with us till the end!

How to Create a High-Converting Pricing Table: Step-by-Step

Now, in this section, we’ll cover a detailed guide on how to create a high-converting pricing table, explaining each step with screenshots. Hope you will be able to follow and do the same on your website to create any pricing tables after that.

Step 01: Decide the Structure of Your Pricing Table

Before you start to create any table, there are several points you must check to ensure. They are:

  • Decide the Structure of Your Pricing Table

This is more important than colors, fonts, or button styles. The way you organize your plans directly affects how people make decisions. A clear structure makes users feel guided. A messy structure makes them feel confused. So, take time to plan it first.

  • Best Practices for the Pricing Table

Most pricing tables usually have three plans. Place your main or recommended plan in the middle. Also, don’t forget to highlight your recommended plan in a way that easily catches the eyes of potential buyers. We’ll show how to do it below.

  • Give Each Plan a Clear Role

You should give each plan a specific role that it will serve. For example, the Free or Basic plan should focus on lowering the barrier to entry. The Pro or Yearly plan should be designed as the best value option. The Lifetime plan should target serious buyers who want a long-term solution.

Step 02: Install and activate WP Table Builder

The default Table block lacks many advanced features that you need to create a high-converting pricing table. To overcome this limitation, you need an additional plugin. WP Table Builder is such a plugin that you can use in this regard.

It’s a drag-and-drop table builder plugin and extremely user-friendly. Navigate to Plugins > Add Plugin. Type WP Table Builder in the search box. Once the plugin appears, install and activate it.

Step 3: Create a New Table and Define Columns

Once the plugin is installed, you’ll see a new menu has been added to the admin bar. Go to WP Table Builder > Add New.

You may build the table from scratch or use a readymade template. You’ll see lots of prebuilt templates if you scroll the page.

If you want to create the table from scratch, define the number of rows and columns you want. Then, hit the Create New button.

Simply place your pricing figures in the respective columns of the table. You can make them bold and increase their font size.

You can add a crossed-out price right under the main pricing using the strikethrough feature seen in the toolbar. Clear pricing removes uncertainty. Crossed-out prices reinforce perceived value without extra copy.

It’s now the time to add features to the table. To do this, drag-and-drop the Styled List element to the table.

Create a CTA button in the table

Connect your destination post or page link to the button from the respective option on the left sidebar.

A trust signal near the button reduces last-second doubt more effectively than testimonials placed elsewhere.

You don’t have to use any element for this. Just write a simple text like us in the image attached below that may work as a trust signal.

# Increase the Height of the Top Row

Step 11: Make the Table Mobile Responsive
