One of my favorite things to do is show the many capabilities of Webflow…and today, I’m sharing how wonderful Webflow is for creating directory websites. Here are some directory or listing-based websites I’ve created using my ever-competent friend, Webflow.
Examples of Webflow directory websites

How do I use Webflow to create directory websites?
On the sites I develop, users can submit a free listing, or they can pay for an upgraded listing using e-commerce functionality (because Webflow is also awesome at ecommerce). When a company submits a listing, it creates a post that’s pending, for the administrator to approve. And on the sites above, all of these listings are visible to anyone who visits the website.
With a Webflow directory website, the options are endless. Coupled with great design and keyword-rich content, the functionality of your directory website can be set up the best way that works for you:
- Businesses can create a variety of free or paid listings (with integrated checkout)
- Listings can be approved by the administrator, or automatically
- Listings can be set up to expire in a set timeframe, based on the plan chosen
