Expert Squarespace Website Review
We know what works and can take your site from good to great. We'll make sure your site users and visitors experience those subtle features which elevate the browsing experience. It's like walking into a five-star hotel or dining in a Michelin star restaurant: you can feel the difference. And we'll do the same for your site.
This isn't about tearing your work apart. It's about spotting the things you can't see when you've been staring at your own site for too long. Fresh eyes, expert perspective, honest feedback.
What We Actually Look At
We can offer an honest critique, finishing touches or a second pair of eyes on a developing project. Know your site doesn't look quite right or is a little confusing to navigate, but not sure why? We'll identify those tricky-to-spot issues and can make small changes that'll have a big impact.
Our team has the design experience and the IT expertise to tackle both the aesthetic and the functional in our design review service. We might advise on things like layout or the use of effective colour and font combinations. Or we may highlight issues like incorrect URL structure or image sizing, both of which could slow down your site or impact its discoverability on Google.
We also check accessibility – colour contrast, alt text, heading hierarchy, keyboard navigation. We built a Chrome extension specifically to check heading structure on Squarespace sites because we kept finding the same issues over and over. Skipped heading levels, multiple H1s on a single page, paragraphs styled to look like headings but not tagged properly. These things affect both accessibility and SEO, and they're surprisingly common.
First Impressions & User Experience
People form opinions about your website in seconds. We'll look at whether your site communicates what you do clearly and quickly, whether the layout guides visitors where you want them to go, and whether the overall feel is polished and intentional.
The difference between a site that looks 'fine' and one that feels considered often comes down to details. Spacing, alignment, font pairing, image placement, the flow between sections. We know what to look for because we've built hundreds of Squarespace sites and we've seen what works and what falls flat.
Technical & SEO Health
Beyond how things look, we'll check what's happening under the bonnet. Page load speeds, image file sizes, mobile responsiveness, meta titles and descriptions, heading structure, URL slugs. These directly affect your Google rankings and your visitors' patience.
You'll get clear, prioritised recommendations. Not a 40-page report full of jargon. You'll know what to fix first, what can wait, and what impact each change should have. If you want us to make the changes, we can do that too.
At Any Stage of Your Project
We can help at whichever stage of a project you're at; whether you're stuck midway and want some guidance or are counting down to launch and just want a little reassurance.
Some of our favourite reviews have been for people who built their site themselves and just want a professional to check it over before they hit publish. No judgement, only solutions. We've also reviewed sites built by other designers when clients wanted a second opinion. That's fine too – we're here to make the site better, not to score points.
Who This Is For
Small businesses, freelancers, creatives, charities, membership organisations, and growing brands who want a professional online presence without the complexity. We've built sites for dog wellness clubs, nutrition companies, education consultancies, creative agencies, and everything in between. If you need a website that works as hard as you do, we're your team.
We work with clients across the UK and internationally. Most of our collaboration happens over Zoom and email, so location is never a barrier. Some of our best projects have been with people we've never met in person.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Design, user experience, mobile responsiveness, SEO setup, accessibility, page speed, and overall functionality. You'll get clear, actionable feedback with recommendations prioritised by impact.
-
Your call. We can provide a detailed review for you to work through, or we can make the changes ourselves. Most clients prefer a mix – they handle the straightforward bits and we tackle the technical stuff.
-
Most reviews are done within a few working days. We'll confirm timing when you get in touch.
-
Our most detailed reviews are for Squarespace sites since that's our specialism. But if you're considering a move to Squarespace, reviewing your current site is actually a great starting point for planning the migration.
-
Honestly? That's often when it's most valuable. Sites that look great can still have slow-loading images, poor mobile layouts, missing SEO basics, or accessibility gaps. A review gives you confidence that everything's performing as well as it looks.
-
Absolutely, and we'd encourage it. Catching issues before launch is much easier than fixing them afterwards.
