Is Squarespace Good For SEO?

Every Squarespace website and online store comes with a suite of integrated features and useful guides that help maximize prominence among search results.

SEO page titles & descriptions

SEO page titles and descriptions are set by default, but you can modify this content for search or social purposes without changing the page content seen by visitors.

Hide a page

All Squarespace customers have the ability to choose to hide a page from search engines.

Control your social image

Control the image appearing alongside your content when you (or anyone) shares that content on social media.

Sitemaps

Your Squarespace site comes with a site map using the .xml format, so you don’t need to create one manually.

Automatic markup

Your site content, like products and events, are correctly marked up by default to help improve search engine indexing.

SEO settings for pages and items

Customers can browse, manage their cart, and pay without ever leaving your store.

SSL security

All Squarespace Domains and third-party domains include free SSL certificates when connected and pointing to Squarespace sites.

Clean URLs

All pages and collection items on your site have static URLs that are easily indexed and read by search engines.

SEO panel

The dedicated SEO panel allows you to have more control over the details that matter most like your site title, description, and page title formats. The built-in search preview tool shows exactly how your site will appear in search results to users.

Built-in mobile optimization

All mobile-friendly Squarespace sites are also search-engine friendly.
