Is Webflow good for SEO?

The Webflow logo next to the question: "A good match for SEO?"

Web design platforms are a dime a dozen these days. Almost all make grandiose claims of being the perfect partner for your SEO journey. But Webflow? It’s a different beast altogether. So to answer this question right from the start: Yes, Webflow is great for SEO!

Why the Fuss About Webflow?

Unlike its counterparts, Webflow doesn’t merely “support” SEO—it’s practically married to it! There’s no need for external plugins or add-ons to tackle the SEO basics. Meta tags, image alt texts, open graph tags? Webflow has it all built in.

And for those who are all about the details: Webflow’s code is like a well-tailored suit—clean, sharp, and perfect fitting. Search engine crawlers love it. This makes the often-feared world of technical SEO almost... easy.

But Remember...

Webflow, for all its prowess, isn’t a one-stop magic SEO potion. It provides a robust foundation, but atop this foundation, you must build. Strategy, content relevance, and dedication remain pivotal.

Whether you’re crafting a site on your own or considering collaborating with a Webflow SEO Expert (like us), always remember: Webflow is the starting line, not the finish.
