Squarespace vs a Web Agency

Squarespace

A website builder known for its elegant, minimal design templates.

Pros

  • Beautifully designed templates
  • Intuitive interface
  • Hosting and SSL included
  • Capable built-in blog

Cons

  • Limited customisation
  • Average performance on mobile
  • Basic SEO compared with a bespoke build
  • You do not own the source code
Web Agency

A fully bespoke website, designed to reflect your brand and maximise your conversions.

Pros

  • Design built entirely around your brand
  • Best possible performance and SEO
  • Bespoke integrations (CRM, payments and more)
  • Full ownership of the site

Cons

  • Larger initial budget
  • Longer development time
  • Technical changes need a developer
  • You have to choose and manage hosting

Our verdict

Squarespace offers good-looking templates but stays limited for an ambitious digital strategy. A bespoke ConvertiLab site gives you a real competitive edge with stronger performance and SEO, from 490€.

Frequently asked questions

Is Squarespace better than Wix?

Squarespace has better out-of-the-box templates and a stronger blog. But both share the same limits: constrained SEO, average performance and no ownership of the code.

What does Squarespace cost per month?

From 16€ to 49€ per month depending on the plan. Over three years that comes to 576€ to 1764€, before any paid extensions.

Can my Squarespace site be migrated?

Yes, the content can be exported in part. We take your copy, images and structure and rebuild them into a fast bespoke site.
