Episode 126: Why I Design on Squarespace over Wix or Wordpress


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why I only work with Squarespace and have intentionally chosen not to design websites on Wix or WordPress. I dive into the tech, design, SEO, and client management reasons behind my decision, plus I share some behind-the-scenes business updates, a little Instagram content win, and a powerful quote that’s been sticking with me lately about life being both too short and too long to stay miserable. As always, I appreciate you being here and listening in!

Topics I cover:

  • Why I exclusively design on Squarespace (and not Wix or WordPress)
  • The importance of clients being able to manage their own sites easily
  • SEO advantages of Squarespace, including image geotagging and blog inserts
  • The tech frustrations with Wix and WordPress plugins
  • My perspective on client empowerment and website accessibility
  • Recent business updates: creating a new Instagram intro post
  • A quick update on SEO School and SEO Inner Circle
  • Client appreciation and balancing life + business
  • A quote from Sophia Bush that really hit home: "Life is too short to not go for it. Life is way too long to be miserable."
