Finding new clients and standing out from the crowd can be daunting, time-consuming work for freelancers and agencies — making networking and community-building so essential.

A critical part of Webflow is our global community of partners, who help teams of all sizes reimagine their digital presence. This summer, we launched our Certified Partner Program, providing new tools and resources to help both customers and partners find each other and do amazing work.

The Certified Partner Program is centered on making freelancers & agencies successful, and that’s why we’re proud to announce that we’re teaming up with Contra, the only commission-free freelance marketplace. Through this partnership we're unlocking even more opportunities for Webflow Certified Partners to showcase their work, share their credentials on Contra’s platform, and increase their visibility with prospective clients.

Evgeny Mishin

Evgeny is a digital product designer and web developer, based in the Netherlands who has been building sites in Webflow since 2021. Whether refreshing an existing site, or creating a new site from scratch, Evgeny prioritizes visually unique and stunning designs tailored to a brand’s identity that are geared to meeting the needs of site visitors. 

“My client saw a website that he really liked, which was built in Webflow, so he wanted to create a similar look and feel. He also knew how easy it is to manage websites on Webflow. One of the key reasons in working with Contra is security and peace of mind for payments. When a client makes their deposit, I get notified and start my work. The client knows I won’t get the full amount until they approve the project.”

“Webflow has been a supporter of the creative community since day one. The ecosystem they have built for creative professionals and agencies has been inspiring to observe from the outside looking in. Today, we are no longer on the outside. I’m thrilled to announce the Webflow-Contra partnership. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Webflow to help even more talented web designers and developers access incredible opportunities, commission-free on Contra.”
