Framer vs. WordPress
Two very different ways to your own website — strengths, limits and who each system suits.
Framer: fast and visually free
Framer is a visual website builder with hosting included. Animations and layouts can be built without code — ideal for landing pages, portfolios and smaller company sites.
WordPress: flexible and extensible
WordPress is open source, runs on any hosting and can be extended almost without limit through plugins — from blogs to multilingual sites to shops. In return, it needs regular care and updates.

Side by side
| Criterion | Framer / WordPress |
|---|---|
| Getting started | Very easy / medium |
| Extensibility | Limited / very high |
| Hosting | Included, US provider / free choice, also in Germany |
| Maintenance | Low / regular updates needed |
| Cost | Monthly subscription / hosting and possibly plugins |
Which suits you?
For a fast, visually strong site without many features, Framer is a good choice. If you need a shop, multiple languages, members areas or full control over hosting and data, WordPress — or a custom solution — is usually the better foundation.
