Adding llms.txt to a Webflow site

Published: 2026-06-29 · Updated: 2026-09-10

Webflow doesn't serve a plain-text file at the site root out of the box, but a couple of practical paths get a real llms.txt live at yourdomain.com/llms.txt.

Option 1 — Host the file + 301 redirect

Upload your llms.txt somewhere it serves as plain text (Webflow's asset manager, or any object storage / CDN). Then in Site settings → Publishing → 301 redirects, redirect the root path to it:

/llms.txt  →  https://cdn.example.com/llms.txt

A crawler requesting /llms.txt follows the redirect to your file. Simple, with no extra infrastructure if you already have somewhere to host the text.

Option 2 — A reverse proxy / edge (most robust)

If your Webflow site sits behind Cloudflare (or similar), serve /llms.txt directly from a small edge worker that returns your text with Content-Type: text/plain. This keeps the canonical root URL with no redirect hop — the cleanest result.

Make it discoverable

Either way, add a footer link to /llms.txt and, via custom code in the page <head>, a <link rel="describedby" href="/llms.txt"> so crawlers find it from your pages.

Curate and validate

Keep the file short — a title, a one-line summary, and your most important pages under H2 headings, with absolute HTTPS links. Then paste your domain into the validator to confirm it's reachable and every link resolves.

On a fully hosted builder instead? The mechanics differ — see llms.txt for Squarespace (a URL Mapping redirect) or Wix (a built-in SEO tool).
