What is Webflow?

Webflow is a website builder and CMS that outputs clean HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It occupies the space between template-based builders (Squarespace, Wix) and custom-coded sites. Agencies often use Webflow to build client sites. For small service businesses comfortable with a learning curve, it offers professional-grade design control. For those wanting something simpler, it may be overkill.

Pricing note: Free plan available for building (with webflow.io subdomain). Paid plans required to use a custom domain. Check webflow.com/pricing for current rates — pricing has changed over time.

  • Businesses that want a professional site without hiring a developer
