In short

Squarespace is a design-led website builder popular with portfolios, restaurants and small service businesses. It handles hosting and basic SEO well, with fewer technical controls than Wix Studio or WordPress. We optimize Squarespace titles, structure, images, speed and local SEO, and advise when a move to another platform would help.
