Webflow Custom Domains
Custom Domains for Webflow Sites
Use your own domain and SSL with a Webflow site—without changing your Webflow plan or content.
Platform constraint
The Webflow Limitation
On free plans, Webflow restricts how custom domains, SSL, and branding are handled.
Staging Domains Only
Sites are published to a *.webflow.io subdomain unless you upgrade to a paid Webflow site plan.
Paid Plan Required
Connecting a custom domain requires purchasing a Webflow site plan, even for simple or low-traffic projects.
Branding & SSL Bundled
SSL and removal of Webflow branding are tied to higher-priced plans, not available on free tiers.
Webflow is often used for marketing sites and CMS-driven pages, which makes custom domains especially important for SEO, client work, and public launches. For many users, upgrading a full site plan just to unlock domains is unnecessary overhead.
Step-by-step
How This Works with Webflow
Step 1: Add Your Upstream
Enter your Webflow site URL (e.g., your-site.webflow.io) as the upstream source. This tells the system where your content lives.
Step 2: Connect Your Domain
Add your custom domain (e.g., www.yoursite.com) and start the verification process. The system ensures it points correctly to your Webflow site.
Step 3: DNS Verification
Follow our clear email-based instructions to update your DNS records. Your domain will only activate after successful verification.
Step 4: Automatic SSL & Activation
Once verified, SSL certificates are automatically issued and renewed. Your custom domain is live, serving your Webflow content securely.
No surprises, just domains
Important Transparency
This service does not modify your Webflow site content, and Webflow branding will remain on free Webflow plans.
