Website Conversion Using Squarespace
Chances are good your website will be better powered by Squarespace.
Once upon a time maybe someone told you to use Wordpress or some other CMS. And now you’re finding out it isn’t the fairy tale you thought it would be:
- It’s too hard to update or add content, new pages, and new features.
- Your plugins stopped working.
- Your site got hacked.
- Managing the software updates is a drag.
- You didn’t even know that you should be doing software updates in the first place.
Maybe your site just looks old. Maybe it still doesn’t use responsive layout for mobile devices!
Time to freshen things up.
Squarespace’s hosted platform provides:
- modern responsive templates with extensive customization features
- functionality galore: blogs, commerce, image galleries, forms, events, and more
- a user-friendly content management system (CMS)
- continuous behind-the-scenes updates, backup, and security
- a large support portal that answers all the common questions (and many uncommon ones)
Let’s take your existing site and your direction and turn it into a beautiful and useful Squarespace site, making some “low-hanging fruit” improvements to design, structure, functionality, and usability tweaks along the way.
As a designer and developer I can provide expert guidance on “look and feel” and user experience and dig into custom code if we need it. And then I can provide as much training as you want to get you started (live or by video).
Get in touch and we can determine if your site is a good candidate to be improved by switching to Squarespace.
I dreaded the prospect of creating a new website. I wanted it done, and knew it was time, but uggh. I’d been through the process twice before, but previously, I’d always gone it alone. After my husband had a successful experience with Kirk, he suggested I give him a try. My husband and I agree on a lot of things, but service providers are often not among them, so I found myself highly skeptical!
Then a little magic happened, and Kirk held my hand through the whole process. I won’t say it was always easy, because it wasn’t. The effort and challenges of projecting myself into the world in bite sized pieces was hard! And yet, Kirk never gave up. He made thoughtful and provocative suggestions that took me down paths I might not have explored.
The result of our collaboration feels like me! And yet, so much of it was Kirk... including his willingness to accept feedback and recalibrate when we found ourselves going off course. I’d absolutely recommend Kirk to anyone I like. If you’re a jerk, don’t use Kirk. He’s a good guy, and deserves better!
