How much will a Webflow site cost in 2024?

The question that comes up most often when you want to launch your Webflow site is: "How much does it cost?"

While price shouldn't be the only criterion when choosing the service provider who will bring your Webflow site to life, it's important to keep in mind the costs of a site.

In this article, we'll take a detailed look at the cost of a Webflow site, based on the rates of several French and international web agencies, certified and recognized as Webflow Experts.

Why is Webflow the ideal tool for creating websites?

Webflow has become an essential tool for creating websites, appreciated for its ease of use and great flexibility. Unlike traditional platforms, which can be too cumbersome and insecure. Webflow makes its mark by giving marketing teams autonomy in the day-to-day management of their website, without having to worry about security issues.

As a result, moreand more entrepreneurs, small businesses and multinationals alike, are opting for Webflow. It's a particularly attractive solution for those wishing to create a website without worrying about complex technical aspects.

With Webflow, website creation becomes simpler and more accessible. You'll love using it to update your site intuitively and hassle-free.

Factors influencing the price of a Webflow site

Let's get back to pricing. Well, yes, how are prices set for showcase sites? Here are some of the factors that can influence pricing:

Complexity of design and user interface (UI)

The design of a showcase site plays a crucial role in the total cost. A customized design with advanced graphic elements and animations generally costs more than a simple, uncluttered design without animations.

It's worth noting that some complex animations can be complicated and require a great deal of time and expertise to create.

For example, if you want to add a lot of 3D elements, expect to almost double the price of your website.

Number of pages

The number of pages on a site directly influences its price. A standard showcase site generally comprises between 5 and 10 pages, but this number can vary according to the specific needs of the company. It's important to note that a page with many sections can be more expensive than one with only a few.

It's also important to distinguish between static pages and dynamic pages, also known as template pages.

Dynamic pages are pages derived from dynamic collections. The simplest example is a blog post, where we create the page design just once. The elements we enter in the fields of the dynamic collection will then automatically populate the page template. These template pages need only be counted once. In other words, you'll pay the same price whether you have 3 items or 500. But please note that the migration of items from another CMS is not always included in the price. And I have to admit, it's a very tedious job if you have to retrieve everything by hand! Fortunately, there are tools that can help you prepare and carry out this migration work, or at least advance you a large part of the work.

Specific functionalities

Adding extra functionality, such as an advanced contact form, calculator, advanced CMS or filtering system, can add considerably to the cost.

And these features need to be considered at the outset of the project to avoid any setbacks.

Another piece of advice would be to ask your agency / freelancer about its ability to use the CMS part of Webflow. Indeed, this is a key functionality that needs to be thought through and built surgically so that you can take full advantage of Webflow's power!

Search engine optimization (SEO)

Having a site is great, but having a visible site is even better! Today, there are many criteria to ensure a good ranking on Google. Although this entails additional costs, SEO is crucial to attracting quality organic traffic.

It would be a big mistake to overlook SEO to save a little money. Yes, your site is there to generate business for you. But if you don't have the right practices in place on your site, no matter how hard you try, your strategies will be limited in scope.

So make sure your contact understands your issues and knows his or her subject to create a high-performance, SEO-oriented site.

Cost of a Webflow landing page

Its main advantage lies in its rapid creation and relatively low cost. In general, a landing page created with Webflow costs between €1,200 and €3,600, depending on complexity and added features.

Showcase sites developed with Webflow are ideal for improving your company's visibility through SEO optimization. These sites are designed to meet specific needs and offer a tailored solution. The cost depends mainly on the size and complexity of the site.

On average, you need to budget between €6,000 and €15,000 for a Webflow showcase site, depending on the functionalities and complexity of the project.

Cost of a Webflow web platform

A Webflow web platform is more sophisticated than a simple showcase site. It can include advanced functionalities such as a members' area, a connected database, training follow-up and video integrations. The use of no-code or low-code tools increases the complexity and cost of the project.

These platforms are often used by companies offering online services or training, requiring in-depth development. The budget for a Webflow platform generally ranges from €12,000 to €28,000, depending on the tools integrated and the functionalities developed.

Cost of a Webflow e-commerce site

E-commerce sites require specific functionalities, as they are designed to manage online transactions. They must include management of inventory, orders, deliveries, returns, secure payment modules, areas for loyal customers, and marketing tools.

As with other types of site, the more functional the site, the more complex and costly the development. In general, an e-commerce site created with Webflow costs between €12,000 and €24,000, depending on the number of products and the specific functionalities integrated into the store.
