What you pay for
Webflow charges per site and per workspace. Every account gets a free Starter Workspace and a free Starter Site plan; you upgrade a specific site when you need to publish to a custom domain. Each Webflow customer is limited to one free Workspace, and any Workspace tier can hold an unlimited number of paid Site plans. [1]
You can cancel a Site or Workspace plan at any time, but Webflow says you still pay the remainder of the term you signed up for. [1]
| Plan | Price (billed yearly) | Key documented limits |
|---|---|---|
| Starter Site | Free | webflow.io domain, 2 static pages, 50 CMS items, 1 GB bandwidth, 50 form submissions |
| Basic Site | $15/month | Custom domain, 300 static pages, 10 GB bandwidth, unlimited form submissions, no CMS |
| Premium Site | $25/month | Webflow CMS, 20,000 items, 40 collections, 50 GB bandwidth expandable to 2.5 TB |

| Ecommerce Plus | $74/month | 5,000 items, 0% transaction fee |

| Team platform plan | $2,500/month, annual contract | Premium features plus Localize, publishing workflows, 5 full and 5 limited seats |
Strength: the CMS
Webflow positions its CMS as visual-first: you design a collection template once and new items follow it. [2]
On Premium the pricing page lists 20,000 CMS items and 40 collections, REST content management APIs at 120 requests per minute, per-item and multi-item publishing, scheduled publishing, dynamic custom code and RSS feeds. Those are the features that make Webflow a real publishing system rather than a page builder. [1]
The limit to know: Basic has no CMS at all. A brochure site that later needs a blog has to move to Premium, which raises the bill from $180 to $300 a year at yearly rates. [1]
Hosting and bandwidth rules
Webflow says its hosting uses Cloudflare’s CDN. Bandwidth is metered per site: 1 GB on Starter, 10 GB on Basic and 50 GB on Premium, with Premium add-ons from +50 GB at $20 per month billed annually ($30 billed monthly) up to +2.45 TB at $974 per month billed annually. [1]
Surge protection covers temporary spikes, but the pricing page states that two consecutive months over the limit trigger an automatic plan upgrade. If a page might go viral, watch usage rather than assume overages are free. [1]
Design, interactions and code export
Site plans list Classic Interactions and Interactions with GSAP, a timeline-based animation editor. Premium also lists code components and site search. [1]
Code export to HTML and CSS is a paid Workspace feature. Webflow notes that dynamic CMS content cannot be exported as pages, must be exported collection by collection, and forms stop working off Webflow. You also cannot re-import exported code. Plan an exit path before building a large CMS site. [1]
Collaboration costs
Workspaces include one full seat for the owner. Extra Full seats were $39 and Limited seats $15 per seat per month billed yearly, with free reviewer seats. Freelancer ($16) and Agency ($35) workspaces add free client seats per site, client payments and guest access to client workspaces. Core ($19) and Growth ($49) workspaces target in-house teams with more staging sites, custom code and, on Growth, site-level roles and 301 redirects. [1]
Support is by email, with Webflow aiming to reply within 48 hours; higher plans add priority support. [1]
Who should use it, and who should skip
This assessment rests on documented plan features; we have not built a production site on Webflow for this review.
| Situation | Fit from the documented features | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Content site or blog with thousands of items | Good fit on Premium | 20,000 items and 40 collections, scheduled publishing, APIs |
| Agency building client sites | Good fit | Free client seats, client payments, site transfer between Workspaces |
| One-page site or link-in-bio | Skip | Basic at $180 a year buys 300 pages and features a single page will not use |
| Beginner launching this week | Skip or test first | Separate Site and Workspace plans and a large editor to learn |
| Store with many products | Compare first | Ecommerce Standard has 500 items and a 2% fee; see our Webflow or Shopify guide |
| Traffic spikes expected | Use with monitoring | Two consecutive months over bandwidth triggers an automatic upgrade |
Checklist before you commit
Answer these with numbers, not impressions.
- Do you need a CMS? If yes, budget Premium, not Basic.
- How many people will edit, and in which seat type?
- What is your monthly bandwidth today, and could it double for two months?
- Would you ever need to leave? Check what code export keeps and loses.
- Is the store under 500 products, and is a 2% fee acceptable on Standard?
- Have you built one real page on the free Starter plan first?
Questions before you decide
Does Webflow Basic include the CMS?
No. Webflow describes Basic as for simple sites that do not need a CMS. Webflow CMS is listed on Premium at $25 per month billed yearly.
What happens if a Webflow site exceeds its bandwidth?
Webflow says it will let you know if you go over and that surge protection covers temporary spikes, but two consecutive months over the limit trigger an automatic plan upgrade.
Can I export a Webflow site and host it elsewhere?
With a paid Workspace plan you can export HTML and CSS. Webflow says dynamic content must be exported collection by collection, forms stop working, and exported code cannot be re-imported.
