How to Host a Framer Site on Netlify for Free (Step-by-Step Guide)

Framer is an incredible design tool, but its hosting costs can add up quickly—especially if you have multiple landing pages or simple portfolio sites. Maybe you want to host on your own domain without the premium price tag, or perhaps you just want full control over your code.

In this guide, we'll show you exactly how to export your Framer site to HTML and host it on Netlify for free.

Why Move from Framer to Netlify?

1. Cost Savings: Netlify's free tier is generous and perfect for most personal and small business sites.
2. Performance: Netlify's Global CDN is blazing fast.
3. Ownership: You own the code. You aren't locked into Framer's ecosystem.

The Process

Framer to HTML Export Process

Step 1: Prepare Your Framer Site

Make sure your site is polished and ready.

• Check that all your responsive breakpoints look good.
• Publish your site to a free framer.app domain (e.g., mysite.framer.app).

Step 2: Export with NoCodeExport

This is where the magic happens. Since Framer doesn't have a native "Export to HTML" button, we use NoCodeExport.

1. Copy your published Framer URL.
2. Go to the NoCodeExport Dashboard.
3. Paste your URL and click Start Export.
4. Wait a few seconds for our engine to optimize your assets and clean the code.
5. Download your .zip file.

Pro Tip: Our exporter automatically optimizes images and removes the "Made in Framer" badge for a cleaner look.

Step 3: Upload to Netlify

1. Unzip the file you just downloaded. You should see an index.html and an assets folder.
2. Log in to Netlify (or create a free account).
3. Go to Sites > Add new site > Deploy manually.
4. Simply drag and drop your unzipped folder onto the specific area in Netlify.
5. Netlify will deploy your site instantly!

Step 4: Connect Your Domain

1. In Netlify, click "Set up a custom domain".
2. Enter your domain name (e.g., www.yourname.com).
3. Follow the DNS instructions to point your domain to Netlify.

Conclusion

And that's it! You've successfully moved your Framer site to free hosting on Netlify. You keep the beautiful design capabilities of Framer but gain the freedom and cost savings of static hosting.
