Is Webflow a real CMS or just a page builder?

Webflow is a real CMS. It has collections, reference and multi-reference fields, dynamic templates and an editor role for people who never open the designer. What it is not is a plugin ecosystem, so structure has to be designed up front rather than bolted on. Webflow CMS development is the part where that structure gets decided, and it is covered inside Webflow Development.

Is Webflow CMS worth it for a marketing site?

For a marketing site, yes. Your team publishes without a developer, layouts stay consistent because every entry renders through one template, and there is no plugin maintenance. It stops paying off when you need user accounts, permissions or heavy relational data. If that is your case a Webflow no-code app with an external database is the better shape, and we scope that in the first of the two to three months a build runs.

How much does Webflow CMS development cost?

It is part of the build rather than a separate line item, and full design and build projects start at $7,500. What moves the price is collection count, how many templates you need and whether content is migrated from an existing site. Billing is half up front and half on completion, with every figure published on the Pricing page.

Can you move my existing blog into Webflow CMS?

Yes. Posts, categories, authors and images come across into collections, and old URLs are redirected so rankings survive. That is a distinct piece of work from a fresh build, and it is scoped on the WordPress to Webflow migration page. Across 50+ founders and teams the migrations are the projects where a careful URL map matters most.

Who looks after the collections after launch?

You can, and most clients do, because that is the point of building it properly. When you would rather not, a monthly retainer covers new collections, template changes and content work. Webflow Care is $950 a month with four change hours and a 48 hour response on anything broken, described on the Webflow Retainer page.

Who actually does the work at Macu Studio?

One person: Arnau Ros scopes, designs, builds and replies to your emails. There is no account manager, no junior bench and nothing outsourced, so the person you brief is the person who ships. Macu Studio is a Webflow Professional Partner and has worked with 50+ founders and teams this way. Read more on the About page.

How much does a Webflow project with Macu cost?

Full design and build projects start at $7,500 and most run two to three months, billed 50% up front and 50% on completion. Ongoing work is a monthly retainer instead of a quote per task, and every plan runs month to month with 30 days notice. Every figure is published on the Pricing page.

Do you also cover design, development and SEO?

Yes, all three, in one pair of hands. Webflow Web Design covers UX, wireframes and design systems, Webflow Development covers builds, CMS and integrations, and Webflow SEO covers on-page work, analytics and growth. Most clients use two of the three, and the six published case studies show how they fit together.
