Top Webflow SEO Plugins

While you can get away with some of Webflow's native tooling for your SEO basics, it can't help you optimize for search intent or information gain. In other words, Webflow alone can't get you ranking today.

Luckily, there's are some more in-depth SEO tools out there that plug directly into Webflow (and one is proven to 11x search traffic.)

What Can Webflow Do For SEO?

‎Is Webflow good for SEO?

We have an article dedicated to finding out, but the TL;DR is, lots of folks use Webflow alone for SEO. Here's how it's helpful:

• It's fast. Quick load times bring up your Core Web Vitals score and help you rank better, and Webflow helps you optimize for speed. Its sites are hosted on fast Content Distribution Networks (CDNs), it has lazy loading for images, and has an option to compress redundant code.
• It has a basic audit tool for technical SEO. The tool can identify missing alt text, skipped heading levels, non-descriptive link content, and broken ID elements on landing pages.
• You can edit on-page elements for SEO. You can edit meta titles, descriptions, and image alt text without code.
• It supports 301 redirects. Webflow makes it easy to ensure search engines don’t see different versions of your page as duplicate content, letting you set a canonical URL.
• It can auto-generate sitemaps. Sitemaps lets you and Google see all of your existing pages, and Webflow can sort this out for you.

We have a Webflow SEO guide to help you check off all of the right boxes for on-page SEO.

But Webflow is first and foremost a site builder, not an SEO tool. It can cover the SEO basics for you, but that's not going to be enough to get ranking today.

This is especially true given the recent changes with Google's SGE and a general trend toward people-first optimization.

Without a Plugin, You Have To Take Care of SEO Manually for Webflow

What happens if you don't want to use an SEO plugin for Webflow?

• You have to figure out search intent, the most frequently-used format, People Also Ask opportunities and more by scouring all the top pages on the SERP
• You have to figure out what topics to cover and information gaps yourself
• You have to go through your content to make sure you're following EEAT guidelines
• You have to manually check hundreds of technical SEO rules. This includes optimizing your Core Web Vitals, following proper heading structure, avoiding keyword stuffing, and more
• You have to manually add, track, and fix links across your pages as you scale
• You have to track page performance yourself using Google Analytics and Google Search Console, which can take hours

Manual SEO like this can add up to six hours to your workflow.
