We get a lot of questions about which platform is best for blogging or creating general websites, and naturally we always say WordPress. I’ve been developing websites on the WordPress platform for a long time, and Angela and I both manage multiple WordPress blogs. It’s our go-to platform for several reasons. However, that doesn’t mean that WordPress is the only option. I’ve seen so many beautiful Squarespace websites and blogs, and I definitely think it’s a good choice for certain bloggers and companies. So! Because neither of us can really go in-depth about the features and perks of Squarespace, we thought it would be perfect subject for today’s resources roundup. If you’re a Squarespace user or are thinking about using it in the future, check out the following posts from fellow bloggers who know their way around this platform.
