Framer pricing looks simple right up until you price the site you actually want to run. The plan is one line on the bill. Editors, languages, CMS capacity, experiments, external tools, and the design and build work around it are the rest.

That doesn't make Framer expensive. For most marketing sites, managed hosting and a fast visual workflow replace several separate costs. But "how much is Framer?" is the wrong question. The right one is "what will this website cost to launch and run for the next year?" So that's what I'll answer.

The short answer

At the time of writing, Framer's official pricing lists yearly billed rates of $10 per month for Basic and $30 per month for Pro. Enterprise is custom. You need a paid plan to connect your own domain.

Basic is enough for a portfolio, a focused service site, or a small blog. Pro is the safer starting point for a serious marketing site that needs redirects, staging, branching, more pages, or more CMS room.

The bill grows when you add people or languages. Additional full editors are currently $20 per month, content editors $10, and each added locale $20. Tax and optional tools come on top.

Current Framer plans at a glance

Framer changed its billing structure on May 27, 2026. The current system separates site plans, editor types, usage, and add ons more clearly than before. Always check the live pricing page before approving a budget, because limits move.

What the plan price includes

A Framer site plan isn't just access to a design tool. It covers publishing, managed hosting, a content delivery network, security and platform updates, image handling, and the built in website features.

That matters when you compare Framer with a custom site or a self hosted CMS, where hosting, deployment, backups, updates, security, and developer support show up as separate bills.

Framer also includes the core SEO controls: page titles, descriptions, social images, custom URLs, indexing rules, canonicals, redirects on eligible plans, and structured data through custom code. It generates a sitemap and robots.txt for you. None of that does SEO for you, but it's the technical foundation most marketing sites need.

Costs that are easy to miss

Editors

One workspace owner is included. Viewers can review and comment without a paid seat. Anyone who needs to design, edit content, and publish may need a full editor seat. A content editor costs less and is meant for CMS, localization, and on page content updates.

Don't hand every stakeholder the most powerful role by default. Decide who designs, who publishes, who only edits content, and who only reviews. I've cut client bills in half just by fixing this.

Localization

Framer charges per added locale. English as default plus German is one added locale. Five total languages is four added locales.

AI translation uses plan credits. Manual translation doesn't, according to Framer's localization documentation. Budget for human review even if AI does the first pass. Brand language, product terms, legal copy, and calls to action need a native eye. I've written a separate localization cost guide with full numbers.

Domain and email

Yearly paid plans currently include a free .com domain, subject to Framer's terms. You can connect an existing domain too. Business email is separate and usually needs another provider.

Analytics, forms, scheduling, and other tools

A simple brochure site may need no paid external tools. An active marketing stack might have analytics, consent management, form routing, email marketing, scheduling, a CRM, search, and support software.

List these before choosing the platform. A $10 plan doesn't make the site a $10 system if it depends on five subscriptions around it.

Design and implementation

The subscription doesn't include strategy, UX, visual design, copy, CMS modelling, migration, responsive QA, accessibility work, analytics setup, or launch support. Templates cut the starting effort, but they still need adapting if the site is supposed to feel like your business rather than a template.

Five realistic cost scenarios

These use current yearly billed rates. They exclude tax, design and build fees, domain renewal after any included period, and external software.

1. A personal portfolio

Five to ten pages, a small project collection, one person, one language, no staging or complex redirects.

Likely Framer cost: Basic at $10 per month, or $120 per year.

Basic works if the portfolio stays within two CMS collections and 1,000 items. Pro is unnecessary unless you need a redirect plan from an old site, a bigger CMS, staging, or team workflows.

2. A small business site with a blog

Ten to twenty pages, blog posts and categories, one owner and one occasional editor, a contact or booking integration, one language.

Possible Framer cost: Basic plus one content editor at $20 per month total, or $240 per year.

This only works if two CMS collections are enough. A blog often wants posts, authors, categories, services, locations, or resources. If your content model needs more than two collections, Pro is the realistic plan, and it's better to know that now than to rebuild later.

3. A SaaS marketing site

Product, solution, pricing, resource, and campaign pages. Several CMS collections. Redirects from an old site. Staging before important releases. One owner, one designer, one content editor.

Possible Framer cost: Pro at $30, one full editor at $20, one content editor at $10. Total $60 per month, or $720 per year.

This doesn't include experimentation. Framer lists its Convert add on separately based on events. Compare that with whatever testing tool the team already uses.

4. A multilingual company site with three languages

One default language and two added locales.

Possible Basic cost: $10 plan plus $40 for locales, or $50 per month.

Possible Pro cost: $30 plan plus $40 for locales, or $70 per month.

The platform bill is the small part of localization. Add translation review, locale specific metadata, image changes, layout testing, URL review, and ongoing updates to the project budget.

5. A growing content website

Hundreds or thousands of articles. Authors, categories, topics, resources, landing pages. Search and structured internal links. Several editors. Regular redirects and staged releases.

Start by testing Pro against your actual content model. Pro currently includes 10 collections and 2,500 items, with paid capacity extensions available. The question isn't only whether the platform can hold the content. It's whether editors can find, update, review, and connect it efficiently.

If the operation needs complex permissions, editorial approvals, advanced search, many integrations, or very large volumes, compare Framer with a dedicated CMS before committing.

When Basic is enough

Basic is fine when the site has a clear purpose, a compact page set, no migration complexity, one main owner, and a simple CMS.

Choose it because the requirements fit, not because it's the cheapest paid option. Rebuilding the content model later costs more than picking the right plan now.

When Pro earns its cost

Pro is worth it when the site is an active marketing system. Redirects protect existing URLs during a migration. Staging gives the team a safe place to review. Branching supports parallel changes. The extra pages, collections, items, and bandwidth give a growing site room.

The $20 difference between Basic and Pro is small next to the time saved or the risk removed on a commercial launch. For any migration, I put clients on Pro without much debate.

When another platform may be better value

Framer isn't the cheapest choice for every site. Wix or Squarespace pack in more for bookings, stores, and memberships. WordPress fits a mature editorial operation or a business built around specific plugins. A custom system is justified when the public site is tightly connected to accounts, private data, or unique logic.

Price the whole operating model. Platform fees, tools, team time, maintenance, and the cost of hitting limits.

If cost isn't your only question, compare Framer with WordPress, Framer with Webflow, or Framer with a custom website against the same requirements.

My recommendation

For a small professional site, expect the platform cost to start at $120 per year. For a serious marketing site, $360 per year for Pro is the realistic baseline. Team seats and added languages can become the largest recurring cost, so model them before the build starts.

The right plan supports the site for at least the next year without paying for features nobody uses. Confirm the content model, migration needs, languages, and editing roles first. The correct price usually falls out of that.
