Hosting one site on Framer costs $120–360 per year (Basic $10/mo, Pro $30/mo, yearly billing as of July 2026), before extra editors at $20/month each and bandwidth overages at $40 per 100 GB. This post itemizes the full cost model — including the documented cost of migrating in — and the math of exporting a finished site to $0 hosting.
Framer hosting costs $120–360/year per site on Basic/Pro plans; a finished site exported once and hosted on Cloudflare Pages or Vercel costs $0/year.

The base plans
Framer's paid tiers bundle hosting with the editor — you can't buy one without the other, which is the whole cost story:
| Plan | Monthly | Yearly | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | framer.website subdomain, 1 GB bandwidth |
| Basic | $10 | $120 | Custom domain, 2 CMS collections, 50 GB bandwidth |
| Pro | $30 | $360 | 10 CMS collections, 100 GB, staging, redirects |
| Enterprise | custom | custom | SSO, SCIM, uptime guarantee |
Per site. An agency with five client sites on Basic is at $600/year of pure hosting before anyone touches a seat.
The multipliers most people forget
The plan price is the floor; three multipliers raise it:
- Editors: $20/month each. Two collaborators on one Pro site: $30 + $40 = $70/month — $840/year. Viewers are free; editors are not.
- Bandwidth overages: $40 per 100 GB past Pro's included 100 GB (max 2 TB). One traffic spike from a launch or a viral post bills like a phone plan from 2009.
- Scaling limits that force upgrades: more CMS collections ($40 per 10 beyond Pro's ten), more pages ($20 per 100 beyond 150). Growth pushes you up the ladder by design.
The cost of getting in (a documented case)
Migration into Framer has a price tag too. Claspo's CMO publicly itemized their SaaS site's move to Framer: $1,300 one-time migration + $130/month plan + two $50/month seats, roughly two months of work — about $4,060 in year one. Worth knowing before treating “just move to Framer” (or away from it) as free in either direction. Lock-in is priced at both doors.
Five-year math, one finished site
For a site that's done changing — a portfolio, an agency site, a product landing page — the comparison is stark:
| Framer Basic | Framer Pro | Export once + static host | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | $120 | $360 | one-time export |
| Year 5 cumulative | $600 | $1,800 | $0/yr since |
| You own the code | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ |
The free tiers of Cloudflare Pages (unmetered bandwidth), Vercel, and Netlify include CDN, SSL, and custom domains — the same infrastructure line-items Framer's plan price covers.
When Framer's price is worth paying
The plan earns its cost when the editor is in weekly use: active design iteration, CMS content flowing, A/B tests running. Framer's price is an editor subscription with hosting attached — pay it while you're editing. The trap is only paying it for years after the editing stopped.
The exit, when you're ready: export the site once — animations included, verified in a free preview — and point your domain at a free host. Full walkthrough: self-host your Framer site. If the site still evolves, an editable code project (clonesite.ai) replaces the editor subscription too.

Is Framer hosting worth it?
While you're actively designing in Framer weekly, yes — the cost buys the editor workflow. For a finished site, you're paying an editor subscription for a site nobody edits. Here's why the built-in export doesn't free you from that bill →
