Where they differ
- Cheapest way in: WordPress.com at $4/mo, against Webflow at $25/mo. That is the entry price in this market on the dates shown, not a judgement about which suits you.
- Free plans: both publish one — a plan priced at zero, not a trial. What each caps differs.
- How far each ladder goes: Webflow tops out at $2500/mo, WordPress.com at $45/mo. A deeper ladder is not a worse deal — it is a bill that keeps climbing if you keep growing.
- WordPress.com: It bills by country — entry $9/mo to a UK reader, from our same-day reads.
How to choose in this category
- First-term discounts are common here — the renewal figure is the one you will live with.
- Free plans usually carry the vendor’s branding and domain.
- A site is hard to move; weigh the exit cost before the entry price.
