Just like your home or office benefits from a seasonal refresh, your website also deserves a cleanup. Over time, even the best-designed websites can collect digital clutter and slow down performance, hurting SEO, and creating a less-than-ideal user experience.

If your website is built on Webflow, you already have a head start. But to keep it running smoothly and effectively, regular maintenance is still essential. Whether you're updating content or optimizing performance, this checklist will help you spring clean your website with purpose.

Why Website Maintenance Matters

Your website isn’t a one-and-done project. It’s a living, evolving digital asset. Keeping it up to date ensures:

  • A better user experience
  • Higher search engine rankings
  • Improved site performance and load times
  • A site that reflects your current offerings and brand direction

Neglecting maintenance can result in broken links, outdated messaging, missed lead opportunities, and even a drop in credibility with your audience.

Your Webflow Website Spring Cleaning Checklist

1. Check for Broken Links

Broken or outdated links frustrate users and signal to search engines that your site may not be reliable. Use Webflow’s built-in tools or a third-party link checker to find and fix these issues.

2. Optimize Images

Large, uncompressed images can seriously slow down your site. Use tools like TinyPNG or Webflow’s native image optimization features to compress files and improve load times across devices.

3. Refresh Your Content

Audit key page such as your homepage, services, and about page for outdated messaging or stale offerings. Make sure everything accurately reflects your business goals for the quarter ahead.

4. Review SEO Settings

Now is a great time to double-check meta titles, descriptions, image alt tags, and URL structures. Webflow makes it easy to update your SEO settings without relying on plugins.

5. Test Forms and CTAs

Ensure all contact forms, newsletter signups, and CTAs are functioning correctly. A broken form can result in lost leads and missed opportunities.

6. Clean Up Unused Classes and Components

Over time, your Webflow project may collect unused styles, components, or duplicated content. Removing these not only improves performance but also keeps your backend organized.

7. Check Mobile Responsiveness

As mobile usage continues to grow, a responsive website is non-negotiable. Use Webflow’s responsive design features to ensure your content displays properly across all devices.
