ProFeedWP vs Elfsight: Which LinkedIn Feed Is Better for WordPress?

ProFeedWP and Elfsight both let you display an automatically updating LinkedIn company feed on a WordPress website. However, they take two different approaches.

ProFeedWP is a dedicated WordPress LinkedIn feed plugin. Elfsight is a hosted widget platform that works across WordPress and many other website builders.

If you only need a LinkedIn company feed on WordPress, ProFeedWP is generally the simpler and more predictable choice. If you need several types of widgets across different website platforms, Elfsight may be a better fit.

The main difference: WordPress plugin or hosted widget?

ProFeedWP is built specifically for WordPress. You add the feed as a Gutenberg block, paste the URL of your LinkedIn company or Showcase Page, and customize it inside the WordPress editor.

If you use Elementor, Divi, WPBakery, Avada or another page builder, you can add the feed using a shortcode.

Elfsight works differently. You create and customize the widget in the separate Elfsight dashboard and then embed it on your website. This makes Elfsight flexible enough to work with WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Webflow and many other platforms.

Neither approach is inherently better. It depends on how you manage your website:

• Choose ProFeedWP if you want to manage the feed directly in WordPress.
• Choose Elfsight if you want one external widget platform for several website systems.

Pricing and monthly view limits

The products also use different pricing models.

A ProFeedWP single-site license costs $49.99 per year and includes all features, unlimited LinkedIn feeds and unlimited views on one WordPress website. Lifetime licenses are also available.

Elfsight prices its LinkedIn widget according to monthly views and the number of widgets. At the time of writing, its Basic plan includes:

• 5,000 widget views per month
• Three LinkedIn widgets
• Unlimited websites
• Annual billing

Elfsight defines a view as each time the widget loads on a page. According to its official pricing page, the widget is temporarily deactivated if the monthly limit is exceeded.

For a small, low-traffic website, 5,000 views may be sufficient. However, businesses with growing or unpredictable traffic may prefer ProFeedWP’s unlimited-view model.

Your LinkedIn feed will not become more expensive simply because more people visit your website.

Design and customization

Both products provide enough design control for most business websites.

ProFeedWP includes:

• Grid, list, masonry and carousel layouts
• Responsive column settings
• Multiple themes
• Custom colors, spacing and border radius
• Image aspect-ratio controls
• Text truncation
• Options to show or hide images, videos, dates and other elements
• Configurable automatic refresh intervals
• Support for LinkedIn company and Showcase Pages

These settings are available directly in the WordPress block editor.

Elfsight also has strong customization options, including five layouts, post filters, popups, sharing buttons, different card styles and custom design settings. With Elfsight, the feed is configured in a separate external dashboard rather than directly within WordPress.

When should you choose ProFeedWP?

ProFeedWP is the better fit when:

• Your website runs on WordPress
• You specifically need a LinkedIn company feed
• You want to manage the feed inside WordPress
• You use Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi or another WordPress builder
• You do not want monthly view limits
• You want multiple feeds on the same website
• You prefer annual or lifetime pricing
• You are an agency handing the website over to a client

ProFeedWP is deliberately focused. It is not an all-in-one social media platform—it is designed to make LinkedIn company feeds work well in WordPress.

When should you choose Elfsight?

Elfsight may be the better choice when:

• Your website does not use WordPress
• You manage websites across several platforms
• You need many different widget types
• You want LinkedIn keyword or hashtag filtering
• Your traffic fits comfortably within the selected view limit

Elfsight offers more than 90 website widgets, including feeds, reviews, forms, chat tools and galleries. If you plan to use several of them, its broader platform can be valuable.

Final verdict

Choose ProFeedWP if you want a focused LinkedIn feed plugin that feels like part of WordPress, offers unlimited views and can be managed directly from the WordPress editor.

Choose Elfsight if you need a broad collection of externally managed widgets that can be used across many website platforms.

For a typical WordPress company website that only needs to display its latest LinkedIn posts, ProFeedWP provides the more focused and predictable solution.
