Less dev, more do. Migrate from Contentful to Webflow for a unified platform where marketers own the full content and design experience.
Too developer-dependent
Contentful is powerful, but non-technical teams often struggle to manage or update content without dev support.
Disconnected front-end
Without a native front-end, you’re relying on multiple vendors just to make changes. Webflow brings it all together in one place.
SEO at stake
Even a well-intentioned migration can harm rankings if not done right. Redirects, metadata, and page structure need expert handling to preserve visibility.
The process feels heavy
From content mapping to platform setup, migrations can overwhelm non-technical teams. Without the right partner, they risk delays, confusion, and missed opportunities.

Webflow Migrations FAQ
How do I migrate from Contentful to Webflow?
Migrating from Contentful to Webflow typically means transitioning from a decoupled, API-based CMS to an all-in-one visual web platform. The process involves mapping your content models, exporting data (often via API or CSV), and rebuilding the site and CMS structure in Webflow. Because Contentful sites are usually paired with custom front-end frameworks (like Gatsby, Next.js, or React), this migration is both a design and architecture shift. Book a free consultation with Flow Ninja to explore how we can handle the technical complexity.
What are the common challenges when moving from Contentful to Webflow?
The primary challenge is re-architecting your content models and frontend presentation from a developer-owned system into a visual CMS that marketing teams can manage. Contentful often involves deeply nested content types, references, and localization setups that need to be rebuilt more intuitively in Webflow. Additionally, preserving SEO integrity and dynamic functionality (like filtering, relationships, and components) requires careful planning. The migration can be complex, but Flow Ninja specializes in translating developer-heavy structures into scalable, marketer-friendly Webflow builds.
Will I lose SEO rankings if I migrate my Contentful website to Webflow?
Not if done correctly. At Flow Ninja, we make sure all SEO-critical elements are carried over, such as metadata, schema markup, alt tags, structured URLs, and redirects. We also improve on-site performance and indexing potential through Webflow’s clean code output. Post-launch, we monitor search performance and help you adapt the site for continued growth.
How does Flow Ninja ensure a smooth Contentful to Webflow migration?
We begin with a deep audit of your current content models, relationships, front-end codebase, and SEO setup. Then we rebuild everything in Webflow cleaner, leaner, and easier to manage. This includes rebuilding CMS collections, redesigning frontend layouts, replicating logic (e.g., filtering, related content), and implementing SEO best practices. If needed, we’ll automate content import via API or CSV, or do manual migration with QA checks. Schedule a free call to learn how we’d scope and execute your migration.
Can Flow Ninja help with post-migration maintenance or ongoing marketing support?
Absolutely. Post-migration, we partner with clients to support new page builds, landing pages, SEO content expansion, CRO testing, and MarTech integrations. If you’ve been relying heavily on devs to ship even the smallest updates in Contentful, Webflow + Flow Ninja gives you the freedom to move fast and iterate independently.
How is content and CMS data from Contentful transferred into Webflow’s CMS?
We extract your content models and entries from Contentful via API or CSV, clean the data, and map it into Webflow CMS collections. Depending on your setup (e.g., localization, references, rich media), this can be done in bulk or in stages. We also help refactor and simplify overly complex models so your team can manage content without dev help going forward.
Will my website performance, security, and accessibility improve after switching from Contentful to Webflow?
Most likely, yes. While Contentful-powered sites can be fast, performance often depends on how well the custom frontend is built and maintained. Webflow removes that variable by delivering optimized, production-ready code and lightning-fast global hosting. We also help you implement WCAG-compliant accessibility and security best practices, all without needing a dev team on standby.
How long does a typical Contentful to Webflow migration take with Flow Ninja?
Most Contentful migrations take 4–8 weeks, depending on the number of content types, the complexity of frontend logic, and how much of the site needs to be redesigned. During your free consultation, we’ll assess the scope and provide a custom timeline and estimate based on your needs.
What makes Webflow better than Contentful for marketing-led teams?
Contentful is powerful but built for developers. It requires engineering resources for even minor design changes, landing pages, or layout updates. Webflow, on the other hand, puts control in your marketing team’s hands. You get a visual CMS, reusable components, SEO tools, and fast publishing. It’s a shift from tech-heavy to marketing-agile.
Are there any Contentful-specific issues that I can solve by moving to Webflow?
Yes. Contentful’s API-first nature often leads to overly complex setups that are difficult for non-technical users to manage. You may also be dealing with localization sprawl, content duplication, or dev bottlenecks just to publish a new page. Webflow simplifies all of this. It centralizes design and content into one tool that’s built for speed, autonomy, and growth. Flow Ninja ensures the migration doesn’t just replicate your site but improves how your team works with it every day.
