Why We Chose Squarespace for Our Templates
When we first began designing templates for service-based businesses, we experimented with just about every website platform out there. After designing, testing, comparing, and refining, Squarespace consistently rose to the top. It offered the ideal blend of beauty, simplicity, and functionality — the perfect match for the professionals we serve.
Today, every Aligned Design Studio template is built exclusively on Squarespace. Here’s why we chose it (and why we think you’ll love it too).
1. It Lets Us Design Unique, High-End Templates You Can Customize Without Messing Up The Code
Squarespace gives us the creative freedom to build templates that look custom-designed while staying incredibly easy for you to personalize. The best part? You can edit, update, and rearrange your site without worrying about messing up code or breaking the layout.
It’s design-forward and user-friendly — giving you the confidence to say, “I can change this… and it won’t fall apart.”
2. It Supports Service Providers with Flexible, Thoughtful Layout Options
Squarespace makes it easy to create the essential pages your business needs — service descriptions, FAQs, blogs, portfolios, contact pages, and more. The tools are intuitive and flexible, giving you the structure to share your expertise without wrestling complicated widgets or plugins.
This flexibility allows us to craft templates that guide your visitors naturally and showcase your business with clarity.
3. It’s Affordable Because It’s One All-In-One Platform
Squarespace is both a website builder and a website host, which keeps your costs simple and predictable. No separate hosting plan. No plugin fees. No maintenance surprises.
Everything you need to run a professional website lives in one place — often for less than what you’d spend piecing everything together elsewhere.
4. It’s Easy to Update — Even if You’re Not a “Tech Person”
Most service professionals don’t have hours to spend learning web design. Squarespace keeps everything straightforward, so adding new content or updating your information feels manageable and even enjoyable.
Whether you're publishing a blog post or adjusting your services, the platform makes the process smooth and stress-free. You’ve got this — and Squarespace helps make sure you feel that way.
5. It Has Strong SEO Foundations (So Your Clients Can Actually Find You)
Squarespace includes clean code, mobile responsiveness, SSL security, and simple SEO settings — all essentials for showing up in search results. Our templates build on that foundation with smart structures and thoughtful guidance that help your website work harder for you.
When the strategy is built in, SEO becomes less intimidating and far more effective.
6. It Keeps Your Website Running Smoothly With No Technical Headaches
Squarespace manages hosting, security, and platform updates quietly in the background. That means no patching, no plugin conflicts, and no sudden website errors.
You get reliability without the stress — letting you stay focused on serving clients instead of fixing technology.
