Choosing a Webflow agency is more than comparing quotes or scrolling through a portfolio of visually successful sites. It is a strategic decision that involves the image of your company, its natural referencing, its visibility with generative AI and its ability to transform a site into a real driver of growth.
So the question is not simply “What agency can deliver a site to me?” But Rather “What agency is capable of understanding my challenges, securing my project and delivering a measurable business impact?”
To Remember
- One Premium Agency is distinguished by recognized certifications, a clear methodology and transversal expertise (design, SEO, AEO, branding).
- Its portfolio must go beyond the beautiful and demonstrate concrete results in visibility, credibility and growth.
- Its own site should be a case study: fast, optimized, visible, proof that it knows how to apply what it offers to its customers to itself.
- Its offers must be transparent and adapted to the level of digital ambition of each company.
- It must be positioned as a Strategic partner, not a simple executor.
Verify certifications and recognized expertise
The first tangible indicator of the reliability of a Webflow agency lies in its Official certifications and awards. Webflow has a List of Certified Partners (more than 1,200 agencies and experts worldwide) that have been audited and approved by the platform. Choosing one is not trivial, it is the assurance of working with a service provider who has demonstrated its technical mastery, methodology and ability to deliver projects that comply with Webflow standards.
This list also makes it possible to filter agencies according to several criteria (type, services offered, budget), which allows the search for a suitable partner. It also includes agencies competing for their excellence, such as the Webflow Partner of the Year Or the agencies distinguished in the category Enterprise. These awards reflect a level of quality that goes beyond the simple development of sites and position the agency as a strategic partner.
Chez Noqode, we bring these two dimensions together. We are Webflow Certified Partner, a guarantee of our technical expertise and have been Nominated at the Awwwards for our Heyia Studio Project, proof that our creative requirements are recognized internationally. This combination of expertise certified by Webflow and creative distinction allows us to support ambitious companies with solid guarantees, both in terms of technical performance and in terms of the perceived value of their brand.
Study the portfolio and customer cases
A portfolio should not be limited to a succession of attractive models. It should show a Ability to adapt to different contexts And above all, reveal the business impact achieved. A premium agency knows how to tell its projects in terms of results, not only design.
Let's take the example of Consulever, consulting firm: we didn't just deliver an elegant site, we designed a Customized CMS To publish articles and references independently, product 12 written and video tutorials To make the team completely independent and highlight prestigious clients such as Kering, Accor, goFLUENT or Danone. The result is not measured in “pixels” but in strengthened credibility with major accounts and in autonomy gained on a daily basis.
In the same way, Our project for Heyia Studio demonstrated that we knew how to align premium image and technical performance, until recognized by the Awwwards. It is this type of evidence that should guide the evaluation of an agency.
SEO analysis and AEO control
An invisible site is a site that does not generate a return on investment. That is why the mastery of SEO Is an essential criterion. But in 2025, we must go further: a site must also be optimized forAEO (Answer Engine Optimization), That is to say usable by generative AIs that are increasingly structuring research (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity).
Traditional SEO focuses on indexing, tag structure, internal networking, loading speed, and mobile optimization. The AEO adds a new layer: content written in direct response to questions, structuring into FAQ, tables and formats that are easily “digestible” by language models.
At Noqode, we master these two dimensions. Our own site is proof of this: according to our Search Console, we register more than 668,000 impressions over six months, with solid positions on strategic requests such as ”Web design agency” Where we are featured in the Top 3. Each month, this represents several hundred qualified clicks and prospects who discover Noqode thanks to our SEO/AEO strategy. In other words, we apply to ourselves what we offer our customers.
Evaluate the agency site itself
It is surprising how many businesses forget to check the site of the agency they are considering recruiting. However, it is the simplest test... Indeed, if the agency cannot design a fast, clear, clear, clear, well-referenced and conversion-oriented site for itself, why would it succeed for you?
The site should demonstrate three things:
- One Smooth user experience,
- One flawless SEO and Core Web Vitals Optimization,
- One Ability to Generate Leads with clear CTAs.
The Noqode site embodies these principles: it attracts constant organic traffic, enhances our premium positioning and integrates simple conversion paths to making appointments.
Understanding Offers and Pricing
The budget is a key criterion but it should never be evaluated in isolation. What Matters is the Clarity of Offers and their ability to adapt to your level of digital maturity.
At Noqode, we have structured our offers into three levels:
- Essential (from 5K €) : lay a solid foundation with a professional site, UX/UI, Webflow development and training to get started.
- Advanced (€10K to €30K) : supporting marketing growth, with complete branding, personalized CMS, CRM integrations and SEO/UX strategy.
- Excellence (on request) : exceptional design projects, integrating premium design, multi-sites, API and AI integrations, and SEO/AEO optimization.
This grid is not just a scale. It Reflects Three Visions of Digital Maturity. We allow each company to choose a trajectory aligned with its ambitions, in complete transparency.
Evaluate process and communication
Beyond the final deliverable, what distinguishes a premium agency is the rigor of its process. A Webflow project must start with a discovery and strategic framework phase, followed by UX/UI design, prototyping cycles with customer feedback, then development and quality testing. Going online is not an end; it must be followed by training, skills transfer and ongoing support.
That is exactly what we are doing. We provide our customers with written and video tutorials, a tailor-made CMS and human support that guarantees them autonomy and serenity. The objective is not only to deliver a site but to build a lasting relationship of trust.
Read testimonials and customer reviews
When it comes to choosing a Webflow agency, testimonials play a decisive role. It is no coincidence that 92% of B2B buyers say they are more likely to sign up after consulting a reliable review. In other words, reputation and social proof are accelerators of trust.
Start by reviewing the testimonials posted on the agency's site. A premium agency does not hesitate to detail the contexts, objectives and results obtained, beyond generic formulas such as “very professional, I recommend”. A good testimony should reflect a real business impact : better credibility, time savings, leads generated, increased visibility...
It is also essential to cross-check this information with reviews left on third-party platforms such as Clutch.co, G2, Trustpilot, Google Reviews or Design Rush. These independent sources make it possible to confirm the reliability of an agency and to assess the coherence between its discourse and the feedback of its customers.
Red flags to avoid
On the other hand, certain warning signals should alert immediately:
- An agency that promises visibility and results in a few days.
- An estimate that is too low, often offset by hidden additional costs.
- The absence of a strategic phase prior to design.
- No follow-up after posting online.
- No proven experience in SEO or AEO.
One Webflow premium partner knows how to explain its prices, detail its process and assume a quality requirement.

FAQ: choosing a Webflow agency
How much does a Webflow site cost in 2025?
The budget depends heavily on complexity and the level of ambition. For a simple showcase site, prices start around €5,000. A complete growth-oriented redesign is between €10,000 and €30,000, with branding, custom CMS and integrations. Premium projects (multi-site, multilingual, API or AI integrations, award-winning design) regularly exceed €50,000. A serious agency should clearly explain what justifies each level of investment and how ROI can be measured.
What is the difference between a freelancer and a Webflow agency?
A freelancer is relevant for one-off projects that are limited in scope. A premium agency, on the other hand, brings a multidisciplinary team (UX, UI, UI, SEO, AEO, technical integrations), a proven process, an ability to manage scalable projects and long-term follow-up. The difference lies in reliability, methodological rigor and the continuity of support. For a strategic project, a freelancer cannot replace a structured agency.
How long should you expect to create a Webflow site?
A basic showcase site is generally designed in 2 to 3 weeks. For a medium-sized project (complete branding, personalized CMS, optimized SEO), it takes 1 to 2 months. Complex or scalable projects (multi-site, multilingual, API/CRM integrations) require 2 to 4 months. A premium agency must always integrate a strategic framework phase, design cycles validated by the client and a QA stage before launch within its deadlines.
What criteria should you absolutely check before signing with a Webflow agency?
Five elements are decisive:
- Les official certifications (Webflow Certified Partner, creative awards like Awwwards).
- One diversified portfolio with measurable results and not only aesthetic results.
- The demonstration of a SEO and AEO expertise, guaranteeing visibility and exploitation of the site by engines and AI.
- La clarity of offers and pricing, adapted to different levels of digital maturity.
- Of strong social evidence (detailed testimonials, major accounts, verified reviews on Clutch, G2, Trustpilot, Google).
How do you know if an agency masters SEO and AEO on Webflow?
Start by analyzing your own site: does it position itself on competitive keywords? Does it publish content optimized for AEO (FAQ, direct answers, tables, case studies)? Also check the results obtained with its customers (increase in traffic, conversions, visibility in AI Overviews). An expert agency must be able to cite specific examples and demonstrate its methodology.
What mistakes should you avoid when choosing a Webflow agency?
Avoid providers who:
- announce unrealistic deadlines (“site delivered in one week”);
- break prices without transparency about the limits of supply;
- do not offer a strategic framework or discovery phase;
- do not demonstrate any expertise in SEO or AEO;
- do not include post-launch support or training.
Why choose a certified and recognized agency?
A Webflow certified partner rewarded with creative or technical awards has already proven itself. This reduces the risk of error, secures the project and ensures an approach that is aligned with platform standards. For an ambitious company, it is a guarantee of reliability and long-term performance.
How to measure success after a redesign with Webflow?
Success is not limited to design: it must be measured on business indicators. The most relevant are: the evolution of organic traffic (SEO/AEO), the increase in the conversion rate, the generation of qualified leads, the perceived credibility with customers or partners and the reduction of technical dependence thanks to a well-designed CMS. A premium agency should help you define these KPIs right from the scoping phase.
