We believe Squarespace is a great tool for anyone who has something to say.

Let’s take a look at ten of the best things about Squarespace!

1. User-Friendly

A Squarespace site is user-friendly for you and your website visitors with an intuitive interface and drag-and-drop design capabilities. This is one of my favorite things about Squarespace and I have met so many others who agree with me! It gives me and my clients such peace of mind knowing that they will be able to easily and confidently maintain their websites on their own when our project wraps. Plus, the people at Squarespace are constantly improving the platform to make sure it is as user-friendly as possible.

2. Security

I know you want to keep your website, information and the people who visit your website safe! That’s why we appreciate that Squarespace website hosting has built-in security measures to protect you and your visitors. All Squarespace domains are automatically protected with SSL certificates to prevent anyone from stealing your visitors’ information.

3. Gorgeous

Squarespace websites have always been prized for how visually stunning they are. They are also highly customizable without having to use code! This is possible because of the amazing Squarespace Fluid Engine feature which is automatically included in all Squarespace 7.1 websites (a.k.a the newest and most up-to-date version of a Squarespace website). Squarespace Fluid Engine is the intuitive, drag-and-drop website editor that allows you to easily customize your website design. We are BIG fans!

4. All-In-One

Okay, this is definitely one of our other top favorite things about Squarespace - it is an all-in-one platform. You can manage your website, domain, analytics, blog, contacts, email marketing, invoicing, online store, scheduling, courses, memberships, and more all from your Squarespace account! No more opening a dozen tabs every morning, you have Squarespace on your side now. 😉

5. SEO

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. It helps your website be visible to and ranked well for search engines such as Google. SEO is a big deal if you want your website to be found via search engines, which almost every single person who has a website wants! But guess what, Squarespace websites have built-in SEO tools that set your site up for success and allow you to easily customize your website’s SEO.

6. Customer Support

Squarespace has award-winning customer support with an outstanding team and Help Center full of articles, videos, a forum, webinars, and support chat and emailing. The Help Center and contacting the support team was how I learned how to use Squarespace back in the day! I always recommend their support resources to my clients when our projects wraps and I know they will be in good hands.

7. Responsive Design

Squarespace has responsive design, meaning it automatically adapts the display of your website to a variety of devices like mobile, tablet, laptop, desktop monitors, etc. You can also custom design the mobile view of your website on any 7.1 Fluid Engine website! (Pro Tip: Always remember to check and tweak the mobile view of your webpages before publishing them!)

8. Quality

Squarespace is revered as a high-quality platform that is constantly improving. They release many new features every year to improve the user experience. Fortunately, they also have helpful instructions in their Help Center for any new releases so you can be equipped to use the cool new features!

9. Selling

Having a Squarespace website allows you to sell both products and services such as physical and digital products in an online store, services via client invoicing, courses, and subscriptions. You can easily set up and manage your commerce all from within your Squarespace account, ensuring it integrates seamlessly with the rest of your website. You can also connect it to your existing commerce tools like Stripe, Paypal, Google Pay, Apple Pay, USPS, UPS, FedEx, Afterpay, etc. Squarespace Commerce allows for flexible shipping options, simple payment and checkout options, straightforward tax tools, and engagement with customers.

10. Circle Members
