Webflow is the most powerful website builder of the market, it allows you to build fully custom website without coding by imitating the HTML and CSS coding logic visually. Webflow proposes to host your website directly on their CDN (content delivery network) but it has a high cost which does not suit every people's needs.

In this short article, you will discover the different approches to host your Webflow website for free.

#1 Buy a Site Plan And Export Your Website

Difficulty: 3/5

Exporting your website is a paying feature offered by Webflow that might suit your case. Once you have exported your website, you can deploy it on any free static website hosting platform like: Github Pages, Netflify, Firebase…

Here is a full guide on how to export and host your Webflow website for free using the export feature.

#2 Use HTTRACK To Mirror Your Website

Difficulty: 4/5

Httrack is a free open source tool that allows you to download your full website as HTML, then you just have to deploy it on a free static website hosting platform like, Github Pages, Netflify, Firebase…

This solution is really handy and powerful but requires some technical knowledge. Here is a full tutorial on how you can achieve this step by step.

#3 Use The Free Website Plan Without A domain

Difficulty: 1/5

This alternative is possible if you don't really care about SEO (search engine optimisation). Your website will be hosted by Webflow but you won't have the possibility to add your own custom domain name. Not having a custom domain name causes bad Google indexing and it looks cheap.

This solution can suit your need if you're just building a hobby website for fun. If you're running a business, you imperatively have your own domain name.
