Moved a 30-page marketing site off Webflow to cut hosting cost

Client paid $39/month for Webflow CMS hosting plus per-seat fees. We rebuilt in Bricks on a $7/month VPS-backed WP host.

The math after migration:
— Hosting + builder cost: $612/year to ~$170/year
— Page weight roughly equal (Webflow ~310KB vs Bricks ~290KB)
— Editors kept a visual workflow, just a different tool

Pros:
— ~$440/year saved with no speed regression
— Full server access for caching and redirects

Cons:
— ~4 days rebuild plus DNS/redirect mapping
— Lost Webflow's tidy hosting-included simplicity

Best for: small marketing sites where Webflow's recurring cost outweighs its convenience and you have WP maintenance capacity.
