It's a good choice for service businesses, portfolios, and smaller sites. ### What Squarespace does well - Clean, fast-loading templates with good Core Web Vitals - Editable meta titles and descriptions - Automatic XML sitemaps - SSL included as standard - Built-in mobile responsiveness ### Squarespace's limitations - Limited plugin ecosystem: No equivalent of Yoast or Rank Math. - Schema markup: Limited structured data options — custom schema requires injecting code manually. - URL structure: Some URL elements are fixed by the platform. ### Our approach on Squarespace We make the most of the built-in SEO tools, work carefully with available URL and page structure, and use code injection for schema where needed. - [Getting started](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en-gb#main-content) - [Onboarding](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en-gb#onboarding) - [Troubleshooting](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en-gb#main-content) - [Websites](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/troubleshooting?hsLang=en-gb#websites) - [Integrations](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en-gb#main-content) - [Google Analytics](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en-gb#google-analytics) - [Google Search Console](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en-gb#google-search-console) - [Google Business Profile](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en-gb#google-business-profile) - [Google Tag Manager](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/integrations?hsLang=en-gb#google-tag-manager) - [Understanding SEO](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/understanding-seo?hsLang=en-gb) - [Website Structure](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/website-structure?hsLang=en-gb) - [Measuring SEO Performance](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/measuring-seo-performance?hsLang=en-gb) - [AI Search and SEO](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/ai-search-and-seo?hsLang=en-gb) - [Platform Guides](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/platform-guides?hsLang=en-gb) - [Working with BrisTechTonic](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/working-with-bristechtonic?hsLang=en-gb) - [Google Ads and PPC](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/google-ads-and-ppc?hsLang=en-gb) - [Common Client Questions](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/knowledge-base/common-client-questions?hsLang=en-gb) [![dark-bristechtonic-word-clear-background](https://support.bristechtonic.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/BrisTechTonic%20Website/Logos/dark-bristechtonic-word-clear-background.png?width=200&height=113&name=dark-bristechtonic-word-clear-background.png "dark-bristechtonic-word-clear-background")](https://www.bristechtonic.co.uk/?hsLang=en-gb) [mailto:hello@bristechtonic.co.uk](mailto:hello@bristechtonic.co.uk) Copyright © 2025, BrisTechTonic
