Fix8 Media Squarespace Specialists are excited to share with you two brand new offerings from Squarespace! On November 4, Squarespace released two new product experiences to add to its already robust core product: Squarespace Cover Pages and Squarespace Commerce.
Squarespace Cover Pages
Designed to meet the needs of those seeking a slick and simple one-page website, Squarespace Cover Pages offer 28 different layout choices and a basic version of the Squarespace 7 interface. With hosting fees starting at just $3/month, this new offering is ideal for a special event, hobby, social media complement, and other uses.
Although Squarespace has always offered users ecommerce capabilities, the company saw a greater interest from companies looking to build robust ecommerce businesses using the Squarespace platform. To meet the demand, Squarespace has responded with a Commerce offering that includes a number of enhanced features, including a commerce mobile app; abandoned checkout recovery for customers who leave items in the cart without completing a purchase; real-time shipping rates for UPS and FedEx; and improved product grids, back-end navigation, templates, and metrics. With hosting fees starting at $26/month, the new Squarespace Commerce package is just one of the many examples of how Squarespace has its finger on the pulse of the market, continually improving tools that meet its customers’ needs.
Existing Squarespace customers can switch to either of these new products via the website manager. If you’ve got any questions about these new offerings, give us a shout! We’d be happy to help!
“For the past 8 years, we’ve watched Squarespace demonstrate its true commitment to its users—from the company’s heroic efforts to mitigate downtime for its millions of users when Hurricane Sandy impacted power to its servers, to its thoughtful, consistently impressive updates. The latest announcement of these tailored packages comes as no surprise to me. Identifying the core needs of its audience, Squarespace has once again flexed to the challenge of tailoring its already robust website platform to meet the specific needs of its core demographic. The result? Amazing new templates, features, and offerings that empower us to better customize solutions that fit our clients’ specific needs and situations.”
