Ultimate Guide - Programmatic SEO on Webflow via Excel (.csv) with CapGo.AI's Case Studies
To do programmatic SEO with Webflow using a CSV or Excel file, you’ll use Webflow’s CMS Collections and CSV import feature to generate pages at scale. Here’s a clear, step-by-step guide:
🔧 What You Need
- A Webflow CMS site (must be on CMS or Business plan)
- A CSV or Excel file with structured SEO content (e.g., title, meta description, slug, body, etc.)
✅ Step-by-Step Process
1. Create a CMS Collection in Webflow
Go to your Webflow dashboard:
- Click on CMS > Create New Collection
- Example:
Blog Posts
,Landing Pages
, orService Pages
- Add fields matching your CSV columns:
Name
orTitle
Slug
Meta Title
(as a Plain Text field)Meta Description
Rich Text
for page content- Any other dynamic SEO fields (e.g., keywords, headings, locations, etc.)
2. Prepare Your CSV or Excel File
- Columns should match the field names/types you added to the CMS.
- Convert Excel (
.xlsx
) to CSV if needed.- Use tools like Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.
- Save as
.csv
.
Sample CSV Structure:
Name | Slug | Meta Title | Meta Description | Body |
---|---|---|---|---|
Yoga in NYC | yoga-nyc | Best Yoga in NYC | Find top yoga studios in NYC | <p>Yoga info here...</p> |
3. Import CSV into Webflow CMS
- Go to the CMS Collection you created
- Click the Import button (arrow icon) at the top right
- Upload your CSV file
- Map each column in your CSV to a field in your CMS Collection
✅ Webflow gives a preview before final import — verify everything aligns.
4. Design a Template Page
- In Webflow Designer, go to Pages > CMS Collection Pages
- Select your Collection (e.g., "Landing Pages")
- Use CMS fields as dynamic content in the page layout
- Example: Insert
Meta Title
into<title>
tag via page settings - Insert
Body
into a Rich Text block
- Example: Insert
5. Publish & Index
- Once published, Webflow will auto-generate individual pages per entry in the CMS.
- Each URL is based on the
Slug
you provided. - Pages are SEO-friendly and indexable.
- You can submit your sitemap to Google Search Console.
🧠 Bonus Tips
- Use Excel formulas to create hundreds of SEO-friendly pages: e.g., "Best {Keyword} in {Location}"
- Add filters, categories, or dynamic links for internal linking
- Use Webflow API if you want to automate the upload (instead of manual CSV)
