I like how easy Squarespace makes it to create a site that both looks good and works well. I also have access to advanced features such as tracking the site's traffic sources, etc.
I don't like how there are additional steps one can take to boost SEO that aren't made available through Squarespace or informed about.
I am solving the problem of how to make an effective website that both works well and looks great. I do not have to hire a designer and coder because they are a one-stop shop for website creation. They have done all the work already, I just need to put together the pieces.
This is a great all in one solution for managing sites and content for any company
Pricing could be a little cheaper and a little more integration within online stores.
We use it to sell products and maintain our company image
My website looked great right out of the box. I've made some tweaks, but I'm very happy with the ease of setup.
I wish it were easier to tweak the site myself. There are limited opportunities for code blocks or design changes.
I'm publicizing my music via the web using the Squarespace platform.
No more updating widgets every month - your website is hosted and maintained by Squarespace. If your website is having problems, so is theirs so they are on top of it! The support and visuals are amazing.
It can be difficult to find a qualified Squarespace developer or expert to help you get set up and started. I think there's a community board to find someone but I can't remember.
I am using it for my website. I set up a landing page after each of my public talks so I can capture leads from the talks. They go right into my email software I'm using. The automation is really helpful for a small business.
Squarespace can be as simple or difficult to use as the user wants to make it! When I first started, it was as easy as dragging and dropping the elements that I wanted to use, but now I'm getting into adding custom coding.
Sometimes I find the website settings difficult to find. I feel like squarespace could make their setting navigation a little bit more user friendly. I find myself scrolling up and down the page or even googling how to find a setting, when it should be very easy to find.
Squarespace hosts my website, which is very important! I need my clients to be able to get to know me and my photography before they even submit an inquiry. Squarespace helps me do that.
I love that Squarespace is so easy to use, even if you have minimal experience in website design.
I wish there were a few more customization options, specifically on the Events Calendar and on Blogs.
We post weekly messages and blogs on the site - something we haven't been able to do as easily with other website providers.
I love the ease of use in Squarespace. It's very intuitive for people who have even a minimal knowledge of design. Both the professional and creative sites I've created in Squarespace have turned out beautifully and are highly functional as well. The customer support is amazing as well.
I love pretty much everything about Squarespace !
I've used Squarespace to create an online presence for my business, my creative work, and the work of my clients.
My wife and I used this to launch our food blog at storybookmeals.com and have since used it for several other sites and blogs. It’s easy to use and get started, the templates are intuitive. From a mobile device I can quickly load up an entry to the blog.
I do wish it was a little easier to edit the site as a whole from a mobile device and I’d like there to be more tools available to creat a periodical style layout on blog entries.
For us this has been a place where we’ve been building up content and stories for a couple upcoming book and a way to get feedback from our readers along the way.
I needed to complete a total overhaul of our company's previous website. The one we had was outdated and not interactive with the users visiting our site. Squarespace made the process not only easy, but enjoyable as well.
That not all options are available in editing within the style editor. There need to be more than a few fonts available for use. Luckily, with custom css you can make more fonts throughout the website available, but Squarespace needs to allow more than the basic h1, h2, and h3.
Update and modernizing our website while simultaneously monitoring our SEO and making sure we are easily accessible by those searching for our type of work within our region.
Squarespace makes it extremely easy to build a website. It's basically building each page with building blocks, and it's super easy to add photos and links.
Squarespace's search engine optimization is not great - our website does not rank highly in google
We use squarespace to build our website and spread our available services and products. It's also great for e-commerce.
