(FREELANCE WEBFLOW DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT)

Webflow development that stays easy to manage.

I’m a freelance Webflow designer and developer based in Manchester, building responsive marketing websites for brands, businesses and agencies. I can take a Webflow project from the first wireframe through to launch, or work as a build-only Webflow developer from an existing Figma design.

Projects can include custom Webflow development, CMS architecture, responsive layouts, interactions, GSAP animation and reusable components. The aim is to get the detail and motion right without creating a site that becomes difficult to edit once it has been handed over.

I also work with agencies that need freelance Webflow development capacity for individual projects, whether that means handling the complete build or focusing on the more technical interactions and CMS work.

(Questions)

Webflow questions, answered.

Webflow is the better fit for most marketing and brand sites, because design, CMS and hosting sit in one place and there are no plugins to update. WordPress is more flexible when a site depends on a particular plugin, but that flexibility comes with ongoing updates and maintenance. For a fully bespoke build with a custom CMS, I also offer Next.js websites.

Webflow is a visual website builder with a built-in CMS and hosting, used to create custom sites without starting from a template. It suits marketing teams, brands and studios who want a site that looks bespoke but can be updated without a developer. It gives full control over layout and styling, and where Webflow's own interactions run out, I add custom GSAP animation.

A Webflow website from me typically costs £3k–£5k (+VAT) for design and build, £2k for build-only, priced as a fixed quote once the scope is set. Costs rise with the number of page templates, the CMS collections needed, and how much custom interaction or animation is involved. Hosting is paid to Webflow separately: publishing on your own domain needs a paid site plan, listed on Webflow's pricing page.

Webflow is the better choice when the CMS does real work, such as filtered case studies or a large blog, while Framer is quicker for small, design-led sites. The Digital Media Team site I built runs 27 case studies and 126 articles from CMS collections, with every case study on one template. Filters sort them by service and vertical across 13 options, so tagging a case study once puts it under the right filters.

Yes. Webflow outputs clean HTML and lets you set page titles, meta descriptions, alt text and 301 redirects, with an automatic sitemap and no plugins. How the site is built matters more: a sensible heading structure, CMS collections with their own SEO fields, and pages that stay quick once animation is added.

Yes, I work build-only from existing designs as well as design and build. The Digital Media Team site was designed by DMT's own designer and built by me: CMS collections, filtering, sliders on CMS lists, and smooth scrolling alongside Webflow Interactions, with tidy class names your team can follow. I'm a freelance Webflow developer based in Manchester, UK, working with brands, design studios and agencies anywhere.

Your team edits text, images and CMS items directly in Webflow, with layouts and styles left as designed. On Digital Media Team, a new case study or article is a CMS item whose place on the site is already set, so publishing one means filling in a form rather than building a page, and the homepage sliders update on their own. Every build ends with a handover so your team can edit on their own.

Webflow Ecommerce can work for a small, content-led shop, but when selling is the site's main job, Shopify is usually the better platform. Shopify is built for checkout, subscriptions, larger catalogues and a wide range of ecommerce apps, while Webflow suits sites where content and brand come first. I build on both, so you get a straight answer rather than whichever platform I happen to know. More on Shopify design and development.
