If you run a website, blog, or any other Internet page, you already know how important it is to use the absolute best assets to create popular and traffic-driving content, and that’s where Envato Elements can simplify your life.
Stock assets made simple with Envato Elements. Many people like us spend hours scouring the Internet for the perfect picture, video clip, sound, or other item to accentuate content, only to get lost in a labyrinth of legal mumbo-jumbo regarding international copyright laws, fair use, and ownership.
That’s exactly why Envato Elements is such an amazing tool—they take care of all of that for you. An Envato Elements subscription can also give you the resources you need to maximize SEO and drive more traffic. To understand how, we’ve provided descriptions for our five all-time favorite assets that we have downloaded from their colossal database.
Basically, our main piece of selection criteria for these five assets is that we use them personally and absolutely love them. We’re sure that you will, as well.
What Is Envato Elements?
Before we dive into our five favorite assets, it’s important to understand what it is.
In short, Envato Elements is a massive database of digital products (“assets”) that are available to anyone who has a subscription. Subscriptions start at $16.50 per month for individuals (and they give a 30% discount to students).

WordPress Plugin: Interlinks Manager
Let’s avert our eyes away from visual assets available on Envato Elements and turn our attention to a WordPress plugin. Interlinks Manager has the potential to revolutionize the way you understand SEO and dramatically increase traffic to your site.
It uses AI to “read” your articles, posts, and other content to convert specific keywords into links to your other content. It will also suggest links for you so that you can control the technology manually.
This is incredibly useful if it links to pages where you’re selling something. It also creates a Wiki Knowledge Base for your site.
It doesn’t stop there, though. This plugin analyzes the effectiveness of those links by tracking them so that you can see what’s working and where you could improve. All of the data that Interlinks Manager collects is exportable in CSV format, so you can run your own numbers with it for more usable metrics.
Finally, Interlinks Manager works with more than one WordPress site in case you’re managing multiple sites, and it can translate to other languages if you need it to.
There is simply no better tool for optimizing SEO and creating auto-links on your WordPress site than this, and it can be yours with only a subscription to Envato Elements.
Music Track: “Fast Beat”
Fast Beat is especially great for creating effective advertisements, and it’s 100% royalty free. It’s incredibly versatile across a variety of types of video presentations, b-roll, and other professional production projects that we have done.
One of the reasons for this is how well the sounds blend with whatever you’re creating. It’s energetic and fast (it has an 86 BPM tempo) with strong bass and guitar sounds as well as background vocals.
It’s available in MP3 or WAV format and is 2 minutes and 27 seconds in length, so you can pick and clip the section that works best for you, if necessary. The entire track is original with no loop.
Powerpoint Template: “Startup Keynote Template”
This is a beautiful and completely editable Keynote template that can be used for a wide variety of presentations in many settings and platforms.
All graphics, icons, fonts, and more are editable, and the download includes 800 free vector icons. There are also picture placeholders ready for you.
We have used this template over and over again. Every time we try to make our own presentation, we quickly abandon it, remembering how great this one is. After all, there’s no need to reinvent the wheel.
