Webflow Basics for Beginners
If you're someone who is interested in using Webflow to design your website, then you've come to the right place. In this article, we'll be discussing everything you need to know about how to design a no code website with Webflow.
How Webflow Works
Webflow is a visual web design tool that allows you to create responsive websites without having to write any code. It's an ideal platform for those who want to create professional-looking websites without having to spend hours and hours learning the ins and outs of code.
Creating a website with Webflow is a simple process. First, you'll need to sign up for a free account. You can do that here: webflow.com Once you've done that, you can start creating your first design project.
To create a new project, click on the \"Create New Project\" button on the dashboard. This will bring up a pop-up window where you can enter your project's name and start a your new project.

Alternatively, can also choose a webflow template from the Template Store. There are plenty of industry-specific templates to choose from. Whether it's e-commerce, blogging site, or a simple one-page landing page, webflow has the solution for you.
Once you've chosen a template, you'll be taken to the Webflow Designer. This is where you'll be able to start designing your website.
How to Use Webflow
The Webflow Designer is a visual interface that allows you to drag and drop elements onto your page. You can add text, images, videos, animations, forms, and other elements to your page without having to write any code.
In this design and development stage, it's really up to you how far you go. Learn with Webflow 101 for the ins and outs of Webflow. Or why not try learning through using the Webflow University Tutorials or Hire A Webflow Professional from the extensive list of webflow experts.
Whichever path you take and once you're happy with your design, you can click on the \"Publish\" button to make your website live. Webflow will then generate the code for your website and host it on their servers.
Which Webflow Plan
If you want to use your own domain name, you can do that by connecting your domain to Webflow. In order to do this, you'll need to select a site plan from their multiple options. I highly recommend the business website plan to ensure you are on local servers. Once you've done that, your website can be published at your own custom domain on webflow (eg. yourdomain.com).
That's all there is to it! Creating a website with Webflow can be a simple and easy exercise that almost anyone can do.
