“Why Even Use Wordpress?”
- Client
Squarespace empowers you to get a sleek, mobile-friendly, SEO-ready website
without worrying about plugins, servers or endless maintenance.
Hassle-Free All-in-One Platform, Zero Technical Headaches
Unlike open-source systems, Squarespace is a hosted all-in-one platform – which means everything your website needs is built right in. There’s no need to purchase separate hosting, install security patches, or manage a tangle of add-ons. With Squarespace, you get it all in one package:
Reliable Hosting & SSL:
Fast cloud hosting and free SSL security are included, so you don’t need an external web host or extra SSL certificates. Your site is secure by default, which boosts visitor trust and SEO ranking.
Built-In Features (No Plugins Needed):
Features that normally require plugins – contact forms, blogging, galleries, ecommerce, analytics – are ready out-of-the-box. There’s no “plugin roulette” needed just to add basic functionality. This closed ecosystem means no plugin conflicts, no surprise breakages, and fewer security risks.
Unified Platform:
Manage your domain, hosting, design, and content all in one place with one login. Automatic software updates and backups are handled for you, so you can focus on running your business instead of being your own IT team. One reasonable subscription covers everything, with flexible pricing that’s budget-friendly for businesses of all sizes.
In short, Squarespace eliminates the common frustrations of platforms like WordPress – no plugin overload, no server maintenance, no endless updates – just a smooth, all-in-one experience that lets you get on with business.
Beautiful, Responsive Design – Professional Out of the Box
Squarespace offers clean, modern, and mobile-responsive templates that look professional from day one, and CLICK7 takes those foundations further by customizing every detail — from fonts and layouts to brand colors and imagery — for a truly unique, high-end result. Using Squarespace’s powerful Fluid Engine editor, we craft refined, custom layouts without fragile code, ensuring a polished, non-cookie-cutter experience that’s easy to maintain. Plus, Squarespace templates are stable and reliable, so your design stays intact across updates and looks flawless on all devices.

Squarespace vs. WordPress and Wix
– The Business Advantage
You might be wondering, “How does Squarespace really compare to WordPress or Wix?” The truth is that each platform has its place, but for most professional business websites Squarespace offers distinct advantages in simplicity and reliability. Here’s a quick, respectful comparison:
WordPress: Highly flexible and customizable, but it comes with a steeper learning curve and a burden of maintenance. A WordPress site often relies on dozens of third-party plugins for features (from contact forms to security), which means more things that can break or need constant updating. Unless you have a dedicated developer or IT team, a WordPress site can become time-consuming to keep running smoothly. In contrast, Squarespace provides those capabilities natively – no plugins or manual updates needed – so you avoid the plugin overload, security worries, and developer dependence that often come with a WordPress setup. For a typical small business that doesn’t require extremely niche custom coding, Squarespace’s all-in-one approach is usually a smarter, safer choice.
Wix: Another popular DIY builder, Wix offers a lot of design freedom with its blank-canvas editing. However, that freedom can become overwhelming and lead to inconsistent design if you’re not careful. We’ve found that Wix sites can sometimes feel like a “messy collage,” whereas Squarespace strikes a balance by giving you flexible design options within a professional, structured framework. Squarespace’s templates enforce good design practices, so it’s harder to accidentally build a chaotic site. Additionally, Wix may fall short in long-term sophistication – it’s fine for a quick start, but it often lacks the polish, SEO robustness, and scalability that growing businesses need for the long run. Squarespace, by comparison, hits the sweet spot: it provides an easy editing experience and the polished, strategic design elements of a high-end site.
While WordPress might be suitable for very complex, content-heavy projects and Wix can serve as a basic starter site, Squarespace is the ideal choice for the majority of business showcase websites. It offers the professionalism and expandability of a big platform without the technical chaos. That’s why at CLICK7 we’ve standardized on Squarespace – we believe it delivers the best results and experience for our business clients, hands down.
