Overall Satisfaction with Squarespace
I use Squarespace for my personal website. It helped me launch a website quickly, without spending anytime coding it up. I got a website up and running within a day.
- Squarespace helped me create and publish an online portfolio that looks professional, well-designed, and easy-to-use within a day.
- I switched from Squarespace, to WordPress, and finally back to Squarespace because it's well-organized and I don't have to spend hours setting up a simple domain, or customizing my theme.
- Organizing navigation, portfolio pieces, blog posts, and responding to comments are all really easy. I love how fast and intuitive everything is within Squarespace.
- Deleting blog posts in bulk is hard, you have to delete them one-by-one which can be time-consuming.
- Deleting articles or portfolio pieces is also time consuming because you can only manage them one at a time.
- Using Squarespace for my site has helped me get interviews with companies that I aim to work for. I can't put an exact $ amount, but it has helped me with my career path and personal development.
- Reasonable costs.
- No need to code or design, but you can customize the themes to a certain extent.
I have used WordPress. I found WordPress great in terms of bulk management and SEO. But, WordPress takes a lot more time to learn and implement things. I preferred Squarespace in the long-run.
