A few years ago, most websites were built on the same platforms.
WordPress. Webflow. Custom code.
Then Framer showed up and changed the conversation.
Here’s why Framer grew so fast—and why it’s now one of our favorite platforms.
Framer Feels Like a Design Tool First
Framer was built with designers in mind.
It feels more like:
Figma
A design canvas
A creative workspace
And less like:
A traditional CMS
A backend-heavy website builder
This matters because design decisions happen visually, not in menus and settings.
Speed Is the Biggest Advantage
Framer is fast.
You can:
Design and build at the same time
Make changes instantly
Publish updates without breaking things
Iterate quickly
This is a huge shift from older workflows where design, development, and deployment were separate steps.
Less friction means better outcomes.
Framer Removes a Lot of Technical Overhead
With Framer, you don’t need to worry about:
Plugins
Hosting setup
Server issues
Security patches
Constant updates
That makes it easier for teams to focus on:
Content
Messaging
Layout
Conversion
Not maintenance.
Animations and Interactions Are Built In
Modern websites are expected to feel smooth.
Framer makes it easy to add:
Subtle animations
Hover effects
Page transitions
Micro-interactions
These details make sites feel:
Polished
Modern
High-end
Without custom code.
It’s Built for Iteration, Not Perfection
Framer is great for evolving websites.
You can:
Launch fast
Test ideas
Adjust layouts
Add pages later
Improve over time
This matches how real businesses grow.
Websites are no longer “one and done.”
They are living systems.
Framer Is Especially Strong for Certain Brands
Framer works best for:
Service businesses
Agencies
Startups
Personal brands
Marketing-driven sites
It shines when:
Speed matters
Design matters
Updates happen often
Teams want flexibility

Is Framer Right for Everyone?

Framer is not ideal for:
Massive databases

Heavy backend logic
But for marketing and brand-driven websites, it’s one of the best options available today.
Final Thought
Framer didn’t become popular by accident.
It won because it:
Simplified workflows

Tools don’t replace thinking.
