| Pros | Generates AMP pages under an AMP endpoint; Design customiser and page builder for AMP layouts; Common analytics and GDPR options in the free core | Many modules in one plugin, each switched on separately; Brute-force protection and an image CDN without extra services; Contact form with Akismet spam checks and entries kept in admin |
| Cons | Large options screen with many settings to learn; Ads, forms and other extras need paid extensions; AMP output needs validation after theme or plugin changes | Needs a WordPress.com connection to work fully; Usage tracking runs once the site is connected, with no separate toggle found; Paid plans gate some features, such as multi-step forms |
