Blog

Branding is one of the most important aspects of any business, large or small, retail or B2B. You should integrate your brand to  every aspect of your business: how you answer your phones, what you or your salespeople wear on sales calls, your e-mail signature, and in our case even the login form on WordPress.

One of the best ways to make your blog stand out from the rest — especially if you allow user registrations — is to customize the login page.

We have put together a list of 5 best WordPress Login Plugins which you can use to customize your login page. Brand the WordPress admin and make it more approachable to your end users. Use it to provide helpful links to clients, enhance the login form, or just spruce the page up a bit to make users more comfortable with the login process.

If you  prefer to stay away from coding  the login page by yourself one of this custom login plugins (it is up to you to decide which one) will ease the process for you. We’ve created the list based on the number of downloads, active installs, reviews on WordPress.org and last updates.

Tesla Login Customizer

Of course we could not end up this list without mentioning our Plugin. To read the full list of features visit the Login Customizer page. Why I have decided to add it to the list? Because unlike several of the above mentioned plugins who charge you for addons we offer many of the ”premium features” for free. Such as reCAPTCHA integration (Stops robots to access your websites using reCAPTCHA) or reCAPTCHA styles(styles the reCAPTCHA field to align with your design).

Downloads – Since we launched it recently the number of downloads is pretty small (1732) but of course we are sure that will grow considerably within time.

Final Thoughts

No matter which one would you choose for your project, remember that you should integrate your brand within every aspect of your business. Use the same color scheme, logo placement, look and feel throughout. You don’t need to be fancy, just consistent.

P.S. If you feel like there is some functionality that should be added to the features of our Plugin, we would love to hear them from you.
