So you’re looking to get a new website and after doing your research you’ve found that you can either have your website designed by a professional or you can get a design you like by using a template. There are advantages in both.

Squarespace websites started out as a template website platform in 2004. It was easy for anyone without any knowledge at all about website design to build their own website.

Have you ever received an email from a specialist SEO person who gives you a list of all the things they can do to optimise your website? We do too and it’s often a generic response to a post we’ve made about SEO on Squarespace websites!

We’ve been selling templates all year and increasingly we are beginning to think that that our users are looking for a design rather than a template. Templates tend to be a 7.0 term as although 7.1 gives you a choice of designs they are all variations on the Fluid engine bas design which can do pretty much anything.

You’ve built your Squarespace website from scratch and you’ve added your content. You’re struggling to get it finished, you don’t know if you’ve got the SEO settings done correctly, and you just want to get it out there. But there’s a but.

2025 has been a really good year and we’ve been involved in some excellent projects. Thank you to all of or lovely clients, some of whom are mentioned in this blog.

These have been a varied mix of new and existing businesses with wonderful owners. Their websites have been a pleasure to work on.

Template 5 is here and it’s a brand new template that would suit an events business. As with all of our templates it can be adapted to suit any business in any industry. There are a few very cool features on this one.

Today we finished a new Squarespace website template which would suit any business in the hospitality sector. Although this template is a design for a cafe it could be further customised to suit any business. If you like the design all you do is add your own text and replace the images with your own pictures.

Some of our most successful website builds have come as a result of one of our templates.

It’s the easiest and cheapest way to get a new website because the design has already been made for you. All you have to do is replace the text and images we’ve used as placeholders in the design with your own text and images.

We are Squarespace website designers and we also provide a specialist SEO improvement service.
