WordPress vs Webflow - Different philosophies of building sites

WordPress is the most-used CMS in the world, with a 43% share of the entire web. As an open-source platform, it offers unlimited flexibility with 60,000+ free plugins, thousands of themes and the freedom to choose your hosting provider.

Webflow is a visual no-code platform that combines the designer (visual CSS editor), CMS and hosting in one. It is popular with designers who want pixel-perfect control without writing code, but with an understanding of CSS concepts.

With BeoHosting WordPress hosting, a WordPress site can be just as fast as Webflow - with significantly lower monthly costs and more room to grow.

Flexibility, price and design capabilities

WordPress wins on flexibility and ecosystem - with WooCommerce for online stores, LMS plugins for online courses, BuddyPress for social networks and thousands of other extensions. There is no type of site that WordPress cannot build.

Webflow stands out for the cleanliness of its design and code - the visual editor generates semantic HTML and clean CSS without bloat. Interactions (animations) are extremely powerful and require no JavaScript knowledge. However, Webflow is locked to its own hosting.

Price is a significant difference: WordPress at BeoHosting costs from around 5 EUR/mo, while the Webflow CMS plan costs $29/mo ($348/year). For the same budget, WordPress offers far more.

  • 60,000+ free plugins
  • WooCommerce for online stores
  • Free choice of hosting
  • Significantly lower price
  • Huge community and support

Webflow - Advantages

  • Minimal maintenance
  • Fast hosting included in the price
  • Clean code export
  • Platform security (no plugins)
  • Excellent for design portfolios

Kdy zvolit WordPress and when to choose Webflow?

WordPress is ideal for blogs, online stores, corporate sites, portals, LMS platforms and any project that requires scalability and customisation. If you need advanced functionality or plan to grow the site, WordPress is the safer choice.

Webflow is the better choice for design agencies, portfolio sites, landing pages and projects where the visual identity is key and the functionality is standard. Webflow is also excellent for prototyping and quickly launching marketing sites.

If you choose WordPress, BeoHosting WordPress hosting offers optimised performance, a free SSL, automatic backups and LiteSpeed caching for faster loading.

Conclusion: WordPress for flexibility, Webflow for design

For most projects, WordPress is the better choice - open-source, cheaper, more flexible and with a huge ecosystem. With the right hosting and theme, a WordPress site can look just as professional as Webflow.

For design projects where code cleanliness and visual control are a priority, Webflow is an excellent platform - but be aware of the higher monthly costs and the limitations in CMS functionality.

BeoHosting offers optimised WordPress hosting with LiteSpeed cache and NVMe drives at prices significantly lower than Webflow. Kontaktujte nás for a free consultation.

FAQ: WordPress vs Webflow

Odpovědi na nejčastější dotazy o našich službách.

Webflow offers a visual designer that generates clean CSS/HTML without extra plugins, which makes it excellent for designers who want pixel-perfect control. However, WordPress with Elementor or Gutenberg FSE offers similar capabilities with a larger ecosystem of themes and plugins. For cleaner code, Webflow is better; for more capabilities, WordPress wins.

The Webflow CMS plan costs from $29/mo ($348/year), while WordPress with BeoHosting shared hosting costs from around 5 EUR/mo plus any costs for premium themes/plugins. For the same budget, WordPress offers significantly more: your own hosting, more capabilities and a lower monthly cost.

Yes, Webflow allows you to export clean HTML/CSS/JS code on Site plans. However, the exported code does not include CMS functionality - for dynamic content you have to stay on the Webflow platform. WordPress gives you full control over the code and you can host it anywhere.

WordPress has a far more advanced CMS with 60,000+ plugins, Custom Post Types, advanced taxonomies and WooCommerce for online stores. The Webflow CMS is more elegant but more limited - a maximum of 10,000 CMS items on the Business plan and fewer integrations. For blogs and smaller sites, the Webflow CMS is sufficient.

WordPress is very accessible today - with modern page builders (Gutenberg, Elementor) you can create professional sites without coding. However, WordPress requires maintenance (updates, backups, security). With BeoHosting managed WordPress hosting, we take care of the technical aspects for you.
