How to Add Comparison Tables to WordPress Without Plugins (2 Ways)
Product comparison tables are optimal for allowing users to compare the pros and cons of services, offerings, or products. However, because of their irregularity compared to basic tables, it can be difficult to create comparison tables that look good, are responsive, and are web-accessible for your WordPress site.
There are a few plugins that will allow you to create comparison tables in WordPress, but if you know anything about WordPress plugins, they can be unpredictable, slow, and poorly-designed for mobile devices.
In this article, I will outline 2 ways that you can add a product comparison table to your WordPress site without using plugins.
1. Coding the Table with HTML & CSS
