Craft CMS
Craft CMS is a self-hosted PHP content management system built for custom, design-led websites: there are no ready-made themes, developers model content and build templates with Twig, and a commerce plugin is sold separately.
Websites on Craft CMS are mostly built by agencies and design studios for clients that want a bespoke site: universities, museums, architecture and design firms, professional services, publishers, consumer brands and mid-sized businesses, mainly in North America, the United Kingdom and Western Europe. A Craft site signals a client that paid an agency for custom development and usually keeps it on a maintenance retainer.
Lists of Craft CMS websites interest companies that sell to agencies and their mid-market clients: managed PHP hosting, CDN and performance services, search and personalisation tools, form and marketing software, accessibility and compliance vendors, and competing content platforms. A newly detected site is a fresh agency build; a dropped site has most often been rebuilt on another system after an agency change.
Craft CMS is the platform behind 59,189 websites, which is 0.1% of all CMS detections we record. Websites built on Craft CMS are most often served from United States (16,353), Germany (7,987) and United Kingdom (7,279), and .com, .org and .de are the most common domain endings.

Questions about Craft CMS websites
How many websites are built on Craft CMS?
As of November 2, 2026, 59,189 websites are built on Craft CMS. The number is recalculated every night from our own crawl of the web, so it follows real launches and migrations.
Who buys lists of Craft CMS websites?
Agencies and freelancers who build, maintain or migrate Craft CMS sites, vendors of plugins, themes and hosting for Craft CMS, and anyone selling a tool that integrates with it: every website on the list is a business that has already chosen the platform and keeps paying to run it.
Where are Craft CMS websites hosted?
United States leads with 16,353 websites, followed by Germany (7,987) and United Kingdom (7,279). The country is where the website is served from; sites on a hosted platform show the platform's country.
How do I find websites that recently moved to Craft CMS?
The New tab on this page lists websites where our crawler saw Craft CMS for the first time in the last days, newest first: new launches and migrations from other platforms. The Dropped tab shows websites that moved away from Craft CMS. Both lists download with a subscription and are refreshed every morning.
How do I get a list of Craft CMS websites?
A free BetaScan account downloads a {sample_rows}-row sample. A subscription from $69 a month gives the full list of 59,189 domains, or a dataset with emails, phones, country, hosting and ranks, filtered by country, TLD, rank and registration date. The lists of websites that recently moved to or away from Craft CMS are included. See pricing.
How does BetaScan detect Craft CMS?
Our crawler fetches the homepage of every domain we track and matches the page and its response headers against the signatures of 7,636 technologies. A website counts as using Craft CMS when its latest crawl shows the signature; when the signature disappears, the site moves to the dropped list.
How can you tell a website uses Craft CMS?
Craft leaves few marks on the front end because every template is custom. The reliable signs are cookies named CraftSessionId and a CSRF token cookie with CRAFT in its name, control-panel assets served from /cpresources/ when logged-in users view the site, and the /admin login path. Our crawler relies mainly on those response headers and cookies.
Is Craft CMS used by large companies or small ones?
Mostly mid-sized organisations and institutions that can afford an agency build: universities, cultural venues, professional firms, regional brands and well-funded startups. Small businesses rarely use it because there are no templates to start from, and very large enterprises more often choose platforms with vendor support contracts, though some run Craft for specific brand sites.
What can you sell to Craft CMS users?
Products that an agency recommends to its clients or uses itself: managed PHP hosting, CDN and image optimisation, site search, form and marketing integrations, analytics and consent tools, accessibility monitoring, and ongoing support services. Since the agency usually controls the stack, offers aimed at agencies, with partner programmes, tend to work better than direct outreach to the site owner.
