Webflow is the platform; the other 7 are what we put around it. Every one of them is on the sites we ship, not on a capability list.

All 4, newest first

None of them is the lead, because they went out on the same day as one argument in three parts: the case for the platform, the case for agencies, and where to start if you are starting from a template.

The case, checked rather than asserted

A platform argument is only worth what the finished site measures. These are the figures a Devdwell build holds, and below them the 7 pages where Webflow is put against a named alternative and does not always win outright.

Where the platform argument is settled

Three destinations beyond the archive. The articles make the case; these are where it is tested against a named alternative and then built.

Comparisons

Webflow against 7 alternatives

WordPress, Framer, Shopify, Squarespace, Wix, Ycode and custom code, one full page each, same verdict structure throughout.Migrations

Getting onto it from somewhere else

4 routes onto Webflow, each with a redirect map and page-by-page parity checks so no ranking is lost in the move.Services

What we do on the platform

Six Webflow services, from custom design and build through to technical SEO, performance and support.

The case for Webflow, in writing. Rather more sites where it held.
