Bas de GoeiWebflow is a visual development platform for building, hosting, and updating websites using a designer-friendly workflow. It combines a CMS, e-commerce, and collaboration features with hosting on Webflow’s infrastructure.
Webflow prices for each plan range from $14/month (Basic) to $212/month (Advanced e-commerce) when billed yearly. Workspace plans (Freelancer, Core, Growth, Agency) include 1 full seat in the plan price ($16 for Freelancer, $19 for Core, $49 for Growth, $35 for Agency, billed yearly).
Additional seats have separate fees: Full seats cost $39/seat/month, and Limited seats cost $15/seat/month (both billed yearly).
Note: If the plan grid changes, that may reflect new pricing from Webflow. Always check the official page to be sure of the latest costs.
This section covers the Webflow website builder’s features.
Webflow plans and pricing are built around two main types of plans: Site plans (for hosting websites) and Workspace plans (for collaboration and design). If you are comparing Webflow hosting plans, think of the Site plans as the hosting tiers (Basic, CMS, Business, e-commerce).
Below is Webflow pricing explained, plan by plan.
Free Webflow plan with 2 pages, 50 CMS items, Webflow.io domain, and 1GB bandwidth that makes prototype creation easier.

Webflow e-commerce plans can help with selling physical and digital products. These tiers include everything from the CMS and Business plans, plus e-commerce tools like shopping carts, checkout flows, and sales analytics.

Enterprise Webflow plan with custom pricing, offering scalable infrastructure, advanced collaboration, SLA guarantees, security, and dedicated support.

Remember: Pricing, plans, and features are subject to change. For the most up-to-date information, always refer to Webflow’s pricing page.
Webflow pricing includes usage-based elements for bandwidth and CMS items, especially on the Business plan, which offers optional add‑ons for bandwidth and CMS items and a usage dashboard to help teams track consumption and decide when to add capacity.
Webflow Cloud is a website building and hosting platform offering usage-based pricing for bandwidth and CMS items. The Business plan includes optional add-ons with usage dashboards for tracking consumption. Surge protection handles traffic spikes, and sites auto-upgrade after two consecutive months above limits.
For Webflow Cloud pricing, usage-based elements like the bandwidth and CMS items drive hosting costs so that you pay for actual consumption, not overprovisioned resources. Webflow Cloud is available on all the Webflow site plans, and the features and limits vary according to your plan.
Let’s zoom in on Webflow’s usage-based elements.
Webflow tracks three main variables that affect pricing:
Each site plan comes with fixed limits. If users go over, Webflow will prompt an upgrade or offer add-ons, depending on their tier.
Each CMS item is a record in the user site’s database: blog posts, products, events, etc. Plans include:
Business plan users can increase CMS items via add-ons:
There are no automatic overages here. When you reach CMS limits, Webflow prompts you to upgrade or add capacity so that you can keep publishing without interruptions.
Note: If you’re exploring pricing strategy frameworks, see our guides on pricing and packaging strategy, pricing models for products, and tiered pricing examples.
Platforms with variable workloads often align pricing to the resources customers consume. When traffic, content volume, or operational activity fluctuates, usage-based components help:
Note: For deeper primers, see subscription billing and pricing models for products.
Across SaaS, AI, and cloud infrastructure, teams adopt usage-based pricing because it aligns spend with consumption, protects margins as workloads grow, and supports different customer profiles within one platform.
Customers pay in proportion to how much they use resource-intensive capabilities. Invoices reflect activity rather than broad tiers alone.
Unit economics stay healthy as workloads grow. Pricing reflects the real drivers of cost.
Light and heavy users adopt the same platform and scale at their own pace. Entry stays simple while supporting growth.
Note: For more depth, see pricing and packaging, tiered examples, and versions and migrations.
Yes. A good rule of thumb to understand Webflow pricing is that most websites need a CMS plan ($23/month billed annually), while teams need a workspace plan starting at $16/month per seat. You can explore pricing scenarios using Webflow’s official site plans page.
Please note that many people use both a workspace plan for design/collaboration and a site plan for hosting to run their website.
You don’t need to write code to build and publish in Webflow. The platform generates clean HTML/CSS/JS from a visual canvas. Custom code is optional if you want advanced behaviors.
Webflow doesn’t offer design services directly; it’s a self-serve platform. However, freelancers and agencies listed in the Webflow Partners directory may charge anywhere from $500 to $10,000+, depending on project scope. Providers set their pricing independently.
Yes, you can host your own Webflow site for static sites. On a paid Workspace plan, you can export code (HTML/CSS/JS/assets) and host it anywhere. Note that dynamic features (CMS items/pages, forms, search, ecommerce, user accounts) don’t export and require Webflow hosting to function.
Webflow has shown how powerful a hybrid pricing model can be with fixed tiers combined with usage-based add-ons. But building that pricing architecture from scratch takes serious engineering effort and ongoing maintenance.
