Shopify vs Squarespace — Which is Best?
Looking to build a website, and not sure which platform to go with?
Below is an excerpt of an analysis of the two from Style Factory Productions.
On the face of it, Shopify and Squarespace look like similar tools: they let you create a website and they let you sell products (even if you don’t have any design or coding skills).
But they have a different history and started life with different purposes.
Squarespace was initially created as a solution for building and maintaining content–based websites, whereas Shopify was specifically designed as a solution for making an online store.
With the addition of ecommerce to Squarespace’s feature set however, and an increase in the number of content-creation tools available for Shopify, the two platforms have become increasingly similar and technically, you can now use either to create a content-driven website or sell products online.
