What is Webflow?
Webflow is a website platform that offers designers almost unlimited possibilities to implement visually impressive and fast websites.
In Webflow, security, SEO, CMS experiments, responsive design for different devices, hosting, etc., are all included in one package.
Webflow is a closed system whose source code is hidden and is updated automatically in the background.
Webflow's Editor tool makes updating content and maintaining websites easy, allowing you as a site owner full control and the ability to respond quickly.
How much does a Webflow website cost?
The price of websites made by a professional can range from hundreds of euros to tens of thousands of euros.
The price is determined by the scope and content of the website.
Online stores and websites with complex structures are more expensive.
Outsourcing graphic design, content production, digital marketing, etc., takes the price easily into the tens of thousands.
My prices start at 3000€ for the design and implementation of a website.

Why does a company need a website?
Websites are an effective way to increase the visibility of your business.
They act as a digital business card and can attract new customers.
A stylish and functional website gives a credible image of your business.
It's a little weird if a company doesn't have a website at all or a company that's picky about its brand has a really old and crappy website.
When is it time remake your company's website?
-If the layout and design of your site seems outdated or does not match the current look of your company's brand, it's time to consider an overhaul.
-When your business has expanded, changed its format, etc. and the old website no longer meets it's requirements.
-If your site is not responsive, meaning it doesn't provide a good user experience on mobile devices, it should have been updated a long time ago. Today, more than half of all browsing is done on the phone.
-Slow loading of your site affects the user experience and search engine visibility, which may be a sign of the need to revamp the site.
-When the security of your site is compromised or does not meet current security standards, an overhaul is necessary. If a "Not secure" text is next to your address in the bowser, it is worth acting immediately.
Keeping up with the competition sometimes requires refreshing the website to reflect the latest trends and technologies.
It's a bad thing if a visitor has to wonder if your business even exists anymore.
One time a client of mine wanted a new website because their old one was “just so Shi**y”.
So that, too, is a good reason to revamp the website if it makes your life difficult.
A website should make your life easier and provide new opportunities.
how long does it take to make a website?
I design and build a new website for your company in 3-5 weeks, depending on what you want to include.
Material for the website must be available to. me before the agreed start date for the project. Otherwise, we will not stay on schedule. Of course, you can edit the content of the finished website whenever you want.
Not all texts and images need to be in their final form, but without content we can't see what kind of website we are making.
I start building the website on the agreed date and it takes three to five weeks depending on the scope of the project.
Can I update the content of my website myself?
Yes.
With Webflow's own Editor -tool, updating the content of your website is really easy for you.
Most of the content can be edited just by clicking on the text, image, link, etc.
CMS collections can be made to manage a blog, news, references and other frequently updated content. With its help, stuff stays in order and visually uniform.
I will personally guide you through the use of your website and show you how to update content.
From there, you can take care of everything yourself. You don't need me or expensive maintenance contracts
Can I add features later?
Can I build my own website?
If your budget is very small or zero, you can build your own website e.g. Using Wix, Shopify, or Squarespace.
If you want to spend your precious working time doing your own work and your requirements for a website are higher, you should hire a professional.
Websites built by a professional are always effective, safe and stylish. You will also receive advice and support in choosing and creating content for your new website.
What is the best website platform?
All major platforms are good in their own way and all have their own strengths.
WordPress is the largest and there are a huge number of plugins available for it.
With Wix, websites are really easy to build and there are a lot of ready-made themes for it.
Shopify offers rich features for online stores, such as payment processing, inventory management, and marketing tools.
I personally use Webflow because it gives me complete freedom to fulfill my client's wishes for the implementation of visually spectacular websites.
Webflow is also fast, safe and makes it easy for you to update your content.
The choice of platform is therefore influenced by the individual needs of your company.

Is Webflow fast?
Yes.
Webflow generates efficient and optimized code, which helps improve site performance.
Webflow uses a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to distribute site resources such as images and code to various servers worldwide. This reduces loading times and improves the responsiveness of the site.
On the other hand, the website must also be built to be fast and designed to ensure the most seamless user experience for the visitor.
How is Webflow's security?
Webflow ensures security with SSL encryption, DDoS attack protection and automatic backups of sites.

What is CMS?
Webflow CMS (Content Management System) is a content management system that makes it easy for you to organize and update frequently added content on your website.
With CMS, for example, all your blog posts always get a uniform and stylish look.
With CMS, your company's products and services always appear in the right categories and in the right menus automatically.
It allows you to divide, for example, news by topic, publication time, author or other similar feature into easily searchable categories.
You can use CMS in a variety of ways to speed up the content management of your website because you only have to do one thing once. The next time will happen in the same way automatically.
