About Squarespace

Squarespace is one of the leading website builders in the market. Creating a website on this platform is easy and fast. Even without coding knowledge one can create and manage a Squarespace website.

It has a wide range of beautiful pre-built templates for different industries. The platform makes it easy for less tech-savvy people to create & manage beautiful-looking, customizable websites.

It is an all-in-one solution for creating all types of websites. Unlike Shopify, which is especially for creating eCommerce websites, Squarespace can create all types of websites, including business websites, blog websites, and eCommerce websites.

Developing A Squarespace Website: How Much It Will Cost?

The cost to develop a Squarespace website varies depending on the pricing plan, apps & integrations, domain, etc.

Pricing plan

Squarespace has four pricing plans: Personal, Business, Basic Commerce, and Advanced Commerce. They cost $23/month, $33/month, $36/month, and $65/month respectively. You get a 30% discount when paying annually.

Each plan comes with different features. Depending on the type of website you want to create and the features you want in your website, you need to choose the right plan. Let’s say, if you want to create a simple business website or a blog website, its basic plan would be enough. However, if you want to create a fully-functional e-commerce website, then go with the Commerce plan.

Domain name

When you signup for a one-year plan, Squarespace offers a free custom domain. After a year, you need to renew it. As Squarespace is a self-hosted platform, you do not have to pay for hosting.

Extensions

On Squarespace, extensions ease various tasks. If you are planning to develop an eCommerce store on Squarespace, you will definitely need to use extensions. You will need them for shipping & fulfillment, finance, inventory & products, and sales & marketing. Depending on your requirements, the pricing of each extension differs. Some extensions are free, while some are paid.

Transaction fees

If you select a Business plan, you will be paying transaction fees. Squarespace charges a 3% transaction fee on sales. In Commerce plans, there’s no transaction fee. However, your payment processor may apply a transaction fee.

Developer

The cost of the Squarespace website also varies depending on the developer you hire. If you are a DIY person, this point isn’t applicable to you. As we have already seen, depending on the skills & expertise, developing a Squarespace website can cost between $1000 and $5000.

Hiring A Squarespace Developer

Though Squarespace has pre-built templates and is promoted as a complete DIY solution, still you may need the help of an experienced developer. The reason is hiring a developer brings in the experience and skills to make your website look more appealing and user-friendly.

As you haven’t developed any website in the past, doing it yourself may consume more time. Also, for someone without a technical background, it may not be possible to give custom look & feel to the website. That’s why we recommend businesses hire a developer when creating a website.
