In Webflow, there are two types of plans available: Account plans and Site plans. Each plan serves a different purpose and offers different features. Here's a breakdown of the difference between an Account plan and a Site plan in Webflow:
- Account plan:
- An Account plan is the main subscription plan that you purchase for your Webflow account.
- The Account plan determines the number of websites you can create and manage within your account.
- It also determines the number of team members you can collaborate with on your projects.
- Account plans come in different tiers (Free, Lite, Pro, and Team), each with varying features and benefits.
- The Account plan is required before you can purchase Site plans.
- Site plan:
- A Site plan is a separate subscription plan that you purchase for each individual website you create within your Webflow account.
- Site plans determine the hosting resources and capabilities of your website.
- Each site you create can have its own Site plan, allowing you to customize the features and resources based on the specific needs of that site.
- Site plans are available in four tiers (Basic, CMS, Business, and Enterprise), offering different levels of functionality and resources.
- The higher-tier Site plans offer additional features like e-commerce functionality, form submissions, and more.
It's important to note that to publish a website on a custom domain (i.e., not using the default webflow.io domain), you need to have an active Site plan. Account plans, on the other hand, are primarily focused on managing multiple websites and team collaborations.
In summary, Account plans determine the overall capabilities and limitations of your Webflow account, while Site plans determine the specific features and resources available for each individual website you create.
