Unlocking the Power of Webflow: Advantages Over WordPress Sites | Vitalic Design Co 05/06/2023

In the world of web development, choosing the right platform for building a website is crucial. With numerous options available, it's essential to consider the specific needs and goals of your project. Let's dive into the advantages over WordPress that make Webflow a powerful website-building platform and the perfect choice for your next project.


Bang For Your Buck
With Webflow, you don't need to be a coder to create stunning websites. While WordPress requires knowledge of HTML, CSS, and PHP to customise themes and templates, the drag-and-drop interface of Webflow eliminates the need for coding altogether. Its pre-built components enable you to create complex designs without writing a single line of code. This accessibility empowers designers and developers to bring their creative visions to life more efficiently, focussing on design. The result for you? You don't have to pay both a web designer AND developer, giving you an amazing website at an affordable price.

Intuitive Visual Editor
One of the standout features of Webflow is its intuitive visual editor. Unlike WordPress, which uses a clunky editor, Webflow allows end-users to maintain and update their website in a What You See Is What You Get manner.

Fewer Dependencies on Plugins = Higher Speed and Performance
On the surface, plugins market themselves as making your life easier. You need to add a subscription form? There’s a plugin for that. You need to optimize for on-page SEO? There’s a plugin for that. You need to create a custom page with a drag and drop builder? There’s a plugin for that. But, the hard truth is that more plugins = more problems. Some plugins can add extra bloated JavaScript code to your website, and create some dangers that you should be aware of.

Plugins can expose security vulnerabilities
Plugins constantly need to be updated. Meaning, you have to be on top of maintenance for WordPress sites. The more plugins you have, the more time you spend on updates. And if you don’t stay up to date on maintenance, the more likely you are to have a spammer attack your website. Unfortunately, there are people out there that constantly scan WordPress websites looking for specific plugins in a website's code. If one of your plugins is out of date, or has a data breach, hackers can use that plugin as a gateway into your website. Webflow takes a plugin-less approach. You need to optimize on-page SEO? There are settings in Webflow to do that. Want to create a fully custom landing page? If you can design it on paper, you can natively build it in Webflow. ‍
