About Squarespace

Squarespace, in 30 seconds

Squarespace is the design-led all-in-one website builder. Templates are well-considered, the editor is friendly, hosting and SSL are included, and integrated commerce, scheduling, email, and a domain registrar mean you rarely need a second tool. It targets creatives, restaurants, small e-commerce, and service businesses — not big content sites or complex marketing teams.

How it actually works

You sign up, pick a template, and edit in the Fluid Engine editor (released 2022). You add pages, blocks, and sections. Squarespace handles hosting, CDN, SSL, basic SEO, and security updates. Commerce is built in: products, inventory, tax, shipping, point-of-sale (US/Canada), and 30+ payment methods. Scheduling (Acuity), email marketing, and member areas are bolt-on modules.

Pricing reality

UK pricing as of 2026: Personal £12/month, Business £19/month, Commerce Basic £25/month, Commerce Advanced £37/month — all annual prepay. Monthly billing adds about 25%. Domain is free for the first year, then £20/year.

Watch the transaction fees: Business plan charges 3% on commerce sales on top of payment processor fees. Commerce plans remove these.

How it compares

Who should buy it

Pick Squarespace if you are a creative, restaurant, small e-commerce, or service business that values design and wants one bill for everything. Skip it if you need deep CMS customisation, you run a content-heavy site (WordPress fits better), or you are doing serious commerce volume (Shopify wins).

Frequently asked

Does Squarespace include hosting?
Yes. Hosting, SSL, CDN, and security updates are all included in every plan.
Can I sell physical products?
Yes, on every plan. Commerce-tier plans remove transaction fees and add abandoned-cart recovery and POS.
Is there a free version?
No — but there is a 14-day free trial without a card. After trial, the cheapest plan is £12/month annual.
Can I migrate from WordPress?
Squarespace has a built-in WordPress importer. It handles posts and pages but theme-specific blocks usually need rebuilding.
Does it handle email marketing?
Yes — Squarespace Email Campaigns is a paid add-on that integrates with your customer list.
How does it compare to Wix?
Wix is more customisable with a larger app store; Squarespace has a stronger design baseline. Pick by which template you prefer after spending an evening in each editor.
