For designers, developers, and people building businesses around Squarespace.
How to Add a Pricing Table to Squarespace
If you sell services, memberships, packages, courses, retainers, or subscriptions, a pricing table can make your offer much easier to understand.
Instead of making visitors read through paragraphs of pricing details, a pricing table lets them compare options at a glance.
That matters because most people are not only looking for the price. They are trying to answer a few quick questions:
Which option is right for me?
What do I get?
What is the difference between each plan?
Where do I click next?
Squarespace does not have one perfect “pricing table” block that works for every use case. But there are several ways to add one, depending on how polished, editable, and interactive you need it to be.
You can build a simple pricing table with native Squarespace sections. You can embed a third-party pricing widget. Or you can use a section library like Kleemt if you want a more designed pricing table without building the layout from scratch.
Option 1: Build a simple pricing table manually in Squarespace
The simplest option is to build your pricing table directly inside Squarespace using sections, columns, text blocks, buttons, and shape/image blocks.
This works best when you have two or three offers.
For example, you might create three side-by-side pricing cards:
Starter
$500
Good for small projects
Includes X, Y, and Z
Button: Book a Call
Growth
$1,500
Good for more complete projects
Includes X, Y, Z, and more
Button: Book a Call
Premium
$3,500
Good for full-service support
Includes everything above plus strategy
Button: Apply Now
This route is nice because everything stays inside Squarespace. You can edit the plan names, prices, descriptions, and buttons without touching code or relying on another platform.
The downside is that it can take some fiddling to make the columns look polished. If one plan has more text than another, the cards may not line up evenly. You also need to check mobile carefully, because columns often stack differently on smaller screens.
Use this option if:
you only need a simple pricing section
you want to keep everything native to Squarespace
you do not need toggles, animations, or advanced comparison features
you want the section to be easy for a client or team member to edit
This is the most practical starting point for a basic Squarespace pricing table.
Option 2: Use a third-party pricing table widget
Another option is to use a third-party widget tool like Elfsight Pricing Table or Common Ninja Pricing Tables.
These tools let you build the pricing table in an external editor, then embed it into Squarespace with a Code Block or Embed Block.
A widget can be useful if you need features like:
pre-designed pricing table templates
column, grid, or table layouts
recommended-plan ribbons
highlighted offers
buttons for each plan
no-code design controls
future edits from a dashboard
The biggest advantage is that you do not have to build the pricing table manually inside Squarespace. You create the table in the widget editor, copy the embed code, paste it into your Squarespace page, and publish.
The tradeoff is that you are now relying on another platform. Free plans may include branding, view limits, or feature limits. Paid plans may be worth it if the widget solves a real business problem, but it is still another tool to manage.
Use this option if:
you want a no-code editor
you need a more structured pricing table
your pricing changes often
you want plan highlights or ribbons
you do not mind using an external widget
you want something faster than building the layout manually
This can be a strong option for SaaS-style pricing, memberships, coaching packages, courses, or tiered offers.
Option 3: Use Kleemt’s Pricing Table section
If you want a pricing table that feels more designed without building the layout yourself, Kleemt is worth looking at.
Kleemt is a Squarespace section and block library. After setup, you can add custom sections directly inside Squarespace, including a Pricing Table section.
This makes it different from a generic external widget. The goal is not only to display pricing information. The goal is to make the section feel like it belongs inside a more polished Squarespace page.
Use a section like this when you want the pricing table to feel more premium than a basic text-and-button layout, but you do not want to custom-code the entire thing.
This is especially useful for:
service packages
creative retainers
memberships
courses
coaching offers
productized services
agency packages
comparison sections on landing pages
A pricing table is not just a design element. It is a decision-making section. The visitor is comparing value, not just price.
That means the section should make the differences between your offers easy to understand.
Use this option if:
you want a more polished pricing section
you are already comfortable working in Squarespace
you want something faster than custom design work
you want the pricing table to sit alongside other custom sections
you are building a more interactive or premium-feeling page
Kleemt is especially useful if you are improving more than one part of the page. For example, you might pair a Pricing Table with testimonials, logo rows, image galleries, countdowns, timelines, expandable lists, or social proof blocks.
Option 4: Use an image-based pricing table
You can also design a pricing table in Canva, Figma, Photoshop, or another design tool, export it as an image, and upload it to Squarespace.
This is usually not the best option.
It may look fine visually, but it creates problems.
Text inside an image is harder to edit. It may not be accessible to screen readers. It can be blurry on some screens. It does not respond as cleanly on mobile. And if your pricing changes, you have to go back to the design file, export a new image, and re-upload it.
Use this option only if:
the pricing table is temporary
the pricing table is mostly decorative
the real pricing details are also written in text elsewhere
you need a quick placeholder while building the real section
For most websites, use live text instead.
What about custom code?
You can create a pricing table with custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
But for most Squarespace users, that is not the most realistic option.
Custom code can work well if you are a developer or if you are building a highly specific layout. But it also means future edits may require editing code. That can become annoying if prices, plan names, features, or buttons change often.
For most people, the better choices are:
build a simple version natively in Squarespace
use a no-code widget like Elfsight or Common Ninja
use a designed section from a library like Kleemt
Custom code is possible, but it is usually not the first route I would recommend for a pricing table.
What should a good pricing table include?
A good pricing table should make the offer easier to choose.
At minimum, each plan should include:
plan name
price
short description
key features or deliverables
who the plan is best for
call-to-action button
If you have one option you want people to choose most often, make that clear.
You can label it:
Most Popular
Best Value
Recommended
Best for Growing Teams
Best for Most Clients
Do not overdo it. One highlighted plan is helpful. Three highlighted plans defeats the purpose.
Keep the pricing table simple
The most common pricing table mistake is trying to say everything.
A pricing table is not the place to explain every policy, edge case, add-on, and exception.
It should help someone choose the next step.
If you need to explain more, add a short FAQ underneath the pricing section.
Useful FAQ questions might include:
What happens after I book?
Can I customize a package?
Do you offer payment plans?
What is not included?
How soon can we start?
What happens if I need more support?
That keeps the pricing table clean while still answering the questions that affect the buying decision.
Which option should you use?
If you want the simplest route, build the pricing cards manually in Squarespace.
If you want a no-code editor with templates and plan highlights, use a widget like Elfsight or Common Ninja.
If you want a polished Squarespace section that feels more designed, use a section library like Kleemt.
If you are building a serious sales page, do not think of the pricing table as decoration.
Think of it as the moment where the visitor decides whether your offer makes sense.
The clearer that section is, the easier the next step becomes.

Best Free Squarespace Plugins, Snippets, and Add-Ons
Squarespace does not have a WordPress-style plugin marketplace.
That does not mean you are stuck with only the built-in settings.
A lot of the best Squarespace enhancements come from small plugins, code snippets, browser extensions, and embeddable tools made specifically for Squarespace users. Some change how your site looks. Some improve the shopping experience. Some help with SEO. Some make it easier to add features Squarespace does not handle natively.
The key is knowing the difference between a useful plugin and a random script you pasted into your site because someone said it was free.
Free is great. Broken, bloated, or outdated is not.
Below are some of the best free Squarespace plugins, snippets, and add-ons worth knowing about.
If you want a larger collection of paid plugins for common Squarespace limitations, you can also browse our Squarespace plugins. If you are looking for tutorials and code walkthroughs, start with our Squarespace tutorials.
What counts as a Squarespace plugin?
In Squarespace, the word “plugin” usually means one of a few things:
a copy-and-paste code snippet
a small CSS or JavaScript enhancement
a third-party widget embedded with code
a browser extension that helps you manage or improve your site
an official Squarespace Extension that connects Squarespace to another service
That is different from WordPress, where plugins are installed inside a dedicated plugin system.
So for this list, I am using “plugin” in the practical Squarespace sense: tools that extend what Squarespace can do.
1. Ghost Plugins Free Library
Ghost Plugins has one of the most useful free Squarespace plugin libraries around. The library includes copy-and-paste components and code solutions for things like buttons, navigation, announcement bars, mobile menus, cursors, image styles, blog links, and small design details.
This is a good place to start if you want to make a Squarespace site feel more custom without buying a full premium plugin.
Best for:
design tweaks
button styles
header and navigation details
announcement bar styling
small visual effects
copy-and-paste enhancements
Watch out for:
Do not install ten snippets at once. Add one, test it, and keep notes on where you added the code.
Good first pick:
Try a small visual improvement first, like a button style, mobile menu tweak, or text highlight. Those are easier to test than site-wide behavior changes.
2. SF Digital Free Squarespace Plugins
SF Digital has a strong collection of free Squarespace plugins and tools, especially for ecommerce and practical UX problems.
Some of the free plugins listed include:
mobile product category dropdown
PDP accordion
lead time messages
product image aspect ratio fixes
mobile call-to-action footer
social icon brand colors
order status page message
fractional quantities
clickable navigation dropdowns
animated nav underline
product title line breaks
add cart text
clickable list items
in-app browser notice
quick exit button
stacked product images on mobile
This is one of the better free resources because the plugins solve specific Squarespace problems instead of only adding visual flourishes.
Best for:
ecommerce stores
product pages
mobile shopping improvements
navigation tweaks
small conversion improvements
practical UX fixes
Watch out for:
Some ecommerce plugins touch important parts of the buying experience. Test on desktop and mobile before sending traffic to the page.
Good first pick:
If you run a store, start with something simple like product image aspect ratio, mobile CTA, product title line breaks, or add cart text.
3. Squarespell Free Squarespace Plugins
Squarespell has a mix of paid and free Squarespace plugins. The free ones I found include:
These are more front-end experience plugins. They are useful when you want a page to feel more interactive without building the effect yourself.
Best for:
landing pages
sales pages
lead magnet pages
launch pages
portfolio pages
small interactive effects
Watch out for:
Animated effects should support the message on the page. Do not add motion just because it is available.
Good first pick:
The copy-to-clipboard plugin could be useful for coupon codes, discount codes, event codes, short URLs, or shareable snippets.
4. SquareWebsites Free / $0 Plugins
SquareWebsites is better known for premium plugins like filtering, tables, maps, lazy loading, and cart tools, but there are also $0 options listed in the plugin library.
The free options I found include:
Social Tabs Plugin
Recent Comments Widget
These are narrower use cases, but they are still worth knowing about if they match a specific need.
Best for:
blogs
social links
comment-driven sites
sites that want to surface recent discussion or activity
Watch out for:
Check compatibility and setup requirements before installing. Some plugin pages are built for specific Squarespace structures or versions.
Good first pick:
Use the Recent Comments Widget if comments are actually part of your content strategy. If your blog does not get comments, skip it.
5. SEOSpace Free SEO Plugin
SEOSpace is a Squarespace-focused SEO plugin and Chrome extension. It helps scan Squarespace pages and gives you practical SEO tasks to work through.
The free plan includes access to the Chrome extension and a limited site audit, which makes it useful for quick checks before publishing or updating important pages.
Best for:
SEO audits
page titles
meta descriptions
alt text
basic on-page SEO cleanup
checking live Squarespace pages
Watch out for:
SEO tools can tell you what to fix, but they cannot replace clear positioning, useful content, and strong pages.
Good first pick:
Run your homepage, top service page, and best blog posts through SEOSpace before making more complicated SEO changes.
Related internal link:
If you are improving your site for search and conversion, pair an SEO pass with your core feature pages and plugin pages, especially if you use tools from the SQSPThemes plugin library.
6. Kwame / SquareSkills
Kwame from SquareSkills has been building custom Squarespace plugins and tools. One specific tool he shared was an Automatic Website Trial Renewer for Squarespace on Gumroad.
Before publishing this one as a “free plugin,” I would double-check the current Gumroad price and whether Kwame wants it positioned publicly as free. Based on the email trail, you had a private free code, but that does not always mean the product is publicly free for everyone.
Best for:
Squarespace pros
designers managing multiple trial sites
agencies that spin up client drafts
workflow automation around Squarespace builds
Watch out for:
Because this touches account or trial workflow, make sure the current version still works and that the use case is clearly explained before recommending it broadly.
Good first pick:
List this as a “worth checking” plugin or “free with code / ask Kwame” unless you confirm the public price.
Suggested phrasing:
“Kwame at SquareSkills has also shared Squarespace workflow tools through Gumroad, including an automatic trial renewal helper. Check the current product page to confirm availability and pricing before installing.”
7. SQSPThemes Free Squarespace Tutorials
Not every useful Squarespace enhancement needs to be a downloadable plugin.
The SQSPThemes Squarespace tutorials library includes free walkthroughs for common Squarespace problems, including popups, lightboxes, galleries, product image behavior, countdown timers, background video controls, product swatches, mega menus, related posts, and more.
Some tutorials point toward premium plugins, but the tutorial library is still useful if you are trying to understand what is possible before buying or installing anything.
Best for:
learning what a feature requires
deciding whether you need a plugin
comparing native Squarespace options against custom code
understanding common Squarespace limitations
Useful internal links:
Watch out for:
Some features are simple tutorials. Others are better handled with a maintained plugin. If the feature affects your store, navigation, forms, or revenue, lean toward a tested plugin.
Good first pick:
Start with the tutorial that matches the problem you already have. Do not browse plugins just to find something to install.
8. Free Product Reviews Option from SQSPThemes / Wiremo
The SQSPThemes plugin page includes a $0 product review option connected to Wiremo.
If you run a Squarespace store, reviews can help customers feel more confident before buying. This is especially useful for stores with products that need social proof, buyer photos, star ratings, or customer feedback.
Best for:
ecommerce stores
product reviews
social proof
improving product page trust
Watch out for:
Review tools often depend on a third-party service. Check the current free plan limits, branding, and whether the review display matches your store design.
Good first pick:
Try it on one product category before rolling it out across a full store.
9. Elfsight Instagram Feed
Elfsight’s Instagram Feed widget is not a Squarespace-native plugin, but it works like one for many users. You create the feed in Elfsight, copy the embed code, and paste it into Squarespace.
It is useful if you want more control over your Instagram feed layout than Squarespace gives you natively.
Best for:
Instagram feeds
visual portfolios
social proof
active brands with strong social content
creators and service providers
Watch out for:
Free widget plans often come with limits or branding. Also, Instagram widgets depend on third-party APIs, so they can change over time.
Good first pick:
Use it on a social proof section, press page, portfolio page, or about page. Do not put a heavy social widget on every page unless it is important.
10. POWR Plugin Library
POWR offers a library of no-code website plugins and has a free sign-up option. These tools are not Squarespace-specific in the same way Ghost or SF Digital plugins are, but they can be embedded into Squarespace.
The most relevant POWR tools for Squarespace users are usually forms, galleries, popups, reviews, countdowns, banners, and other embedded widgets.
Best for:
advanced forms
popups
countdowns
banners
small no-code widgets
lead capture
Watch out for:
Free plans usually have limits. You may also see POWR branding depending on the widget and plan.
Good first pick:
Use POWR when the built-in Squarespace block does not go far enough, especially for forms or small conversion widgets.
11. Mailchimp Pop-Up
Mailchimp appears in the official Squarespace Extensions library. If you already use Mailchimp, you can create a subscriber pop-up or signup form and connect it to your Squarespace site.
This is useful if you want to collect newsletter subscribers without paying for a separate pop-up tool.
Best for:
newsletter signups
free downloads
launch lists
simple email capture
audience building
Watch out for:
Pop-ups can hurt the visitor experience if they appear too quickly or too often. Keep the offer clear and the frequency reasonable.
Good first pick:
Use a simple newsletter pop-up with one clear promise. Avoid generic “join my newsletter” language.
12. Weglot Free Plan
Weglot is a translation tool that also appears in the official Squarespace Extensions library. It can help you add multilingual functionality to a Squarespace site without manually duplicating every page.
The free plan is limited, but it can work for a very small site or a test of one additional language.
Best for:
small multilingual sites
testing a second language
landing pages
international audiences
proof-of-concept translation
Watch out for:
The free plan has a word limit. Machine translation should still be reviewed by someone fluent in the language.
Good first pick:
Translate your homepage and one key landing page first. Do not try to translate a full blog archive on a free plan.
13. Printful Squarespace Extension
Printful is listed in the official Squarespace Extensions library for print-on-demand products.
This is not a design plugin. It is more of an ecommerce extension. But it belongs in the broader “free add-ons” conversation because it lets you connect a print-on-demand workflow to a Squarespace store without carrying inventory upfront.
Best for:
merch
apparel
print-on-demand
creators testing product ideas
small shops that do not want inventory risk
Watch out for:
The extension may be free to connect, but the products are not free to fulfill. Margins, shipping time, and product quality still matter.
Good first pick:
Test one or two products before building a whole store around print-on-demand.
14. Judge.me Product Reviews
The official Squarespace Extensions library lists Judge.me as a product review option.
For ecommerce sites, reviews are one of the more useful plugin-like additions because they can improve trust right where buyers are making decisions.
Best for:
product reviews
ecommerce trust
customer photos
star ratings
social proof
Watch out for:
Check whether the Squarespace integration supports the specific review features you need. Not every review feature available on other platforms will necessarily work the same way on Squarespace.
Good first pick:
Use reviews on your best-selling products first.
15. Free Custom CSS Snippets
Some of the best free Squarespace plugins are not products at all. They are CSS snippets.
A few lines of CSS can adjust spacing, hide elements, change mobile styles, style buttons, improve blog layouts, or make default Squarespace blocks look more custom.
Best for:
button styling
spacing fixes
mobile tweaks
typography refinements
image effects
hiding or restyling elements
Watch out for:
Bad CSS can make a site harder to maintain. Keep a note above each snippet explaining what it does.
Good first pick:
Use CSS for small visual changes. Do not try to rebuild your whole site with custom CSS.
16. Free JavaScript Snippets
JavaScript snippets can add lightweight interaction to Squarespace.
Examples include accordions, lightboxes, smooth scrolling, custom buttons, announcement behavior, copy-to-clipboard functions, or small interface improvements.
Best for:
small interactions
interface behavior
buttons
lightboxes
accordions
custom UI moments
Watch out for:
JavaScript can conflict with other scripts. If you add multiple JavaScript snippets and something breaks, troubleshooting can get annoying fast.
Good first pick:
Use JavaScript only when the interaction matters. If the feature is purely decorative, CSS may be safer.
17. Native Squarespace Features You May Not Need a Plugin For
Before adding any plugin, check whether Squarespace already does what you need.
Many users reach for third-party plugins before fully using native Squarespace blocks, settings, and extensions.
Squarespace already includes or supports:
galleries
forms
buttons
announcement bars
product blocks
email campaigns
video embeds
basic analytics
social links
scheduling
member areas
basic ecommerce features
official extensions
Best for:
simple site features
low-maintenance builds
client sites
sites that need to stay easy to update
Watch out for:
Native features are usually easier to maintain, but they may not give you the exact design or behavior you want.
Good first pick:
Use native Squarespace features first when they solve the problem cleanly enough.
How to choose the right free Squarespace plugin
Free plugins are tempting because there is no upfront cost.
But every plugin still has a cost.
It can affect performance. It can add maintenance. It can create conflicts. It can make the site harder for a client to update later.
Before adding any free Squarespace plugin, ask:
Does this solve a real problem?
Is it made for Squarespace?
Does it work with Squarespace 7.1?
Does it require site-wide code injection?
Can I remove it cleanly later?
Will it slow down the site?
Will my client understand how to use it?
Is there a native Squarespace feature that already does this?
Is this still being maintained?
Does this affect checkout, forms, navigation, or anything tied to revenue?
The best free plugin is not the one with the flashiest effect.
It is the one that solves one clear problem without making the rest of the site harder to manage.
Free does not mean risk-free
Free Squarespace plugins can be genuinely useful.
They can help you add polish, improve SEO, collect leads, enhance ecommerce, and solve small design problems without hiring a developer for every change.
But the best approach is simple: add one thing at a time.
Install the plugin. Test the page. Check mobile. Check speed. Check forms, buttons, cart behavior, and anything tied to revenue or leads. Then document what you added and where you added it.
That way, your site gets better without turning into a pile of mystery code.
Start with the smallest plugin that solves the clearest problem. That is usually the one worth keeping.
Quick shortlist

Why Accessibility Needs to Be Part of Every Squarespace Designer’s Practice
I’ve been in the Squarespace ecosystem a long time.
Long enough to watch waves come and go: the templates everyone swore by, the “hot” styles, the plugin trends, the shortcuts that worked until they didn’t.
And when you strip all that noise away, something simple remains:
Good design is design people can use.
That’s accessibility in simple terms.
Not as a buzzword. Not as a legal scare tactic. Not as something you add at the end because a client asked about ADA compliance.
Accessibility belongs inside the practice of design itself.
Let’s talk about why.
Clients expect the effects of accessibility, even if they do not use the word
Most clients do not say “accessible design.”
They say things like:
“Make the text easier to read.”
“This part feels confusing.”
“People told me the form isn’t working.”
“Why does this look different on my screen?”
“Can we make this easier for older customers?”
They are describing accessibility issues without always knowing it.
What they want is a site that feels clear, sturdy, readable, and easy to move through. When your work reflects that, clients pick up on it. They may not be able to explain why the site feels better, but they know it does.
That is part of your advantage as a designer.
A designer who pays attention to structure, readability, contrast, navigation, and forms builds trust without needing to announce every detail. The site carries the proof.
Accessibility communicates professionalism more than aesthetics ever will
Anyone can make something look good in a screenshot.
What separates designers over time is whether the work holds up in real life: across devices, screen sizes, abilities, attention levels, lighting conditions, browsers, and everyday human situations.
A beautiful site that people struggle to read is not finished.
A clever layout that breaks keyboard navigation is not thoughtful.
A homepage that looks impressive but leaves visitors confused is not doing its job.
Professionalism is not only taste. It is care. It is whether the site works for the people who actually need to use it.
Accessibility is one of the clearest ways that care shows up.
Accessibility prevents the issues designers hate dealing with later
Every designer has dealt with strange bug reports, unclear client feedback, or that feeling of, “Why is this breaking? It worked fine for me.”
A lot of that gets easier when accessibility is part of your process from the beginning.
Clear heading structure makes pages easier to scan.
Readable contrast reduces complaints.
Proper labels make forms easier to complete.
Consistent navigation helps people know where they are.
Descriptive links make the next step obvious.
Alt text makes important images understandable when the image itself is not available or visible.
These details are not glamorous, but they make a site steadier. They also save you from unnecessary rounds of fixes later.
Accessibility is not extra work so much as cleaner work.
Accessible sites usually perform better
When someone can read, understand, and navigate a site easily, they are more likely to take action.
That can mean more inquiries, more purchases, more bookings, more signups, more donations, or simply fewer people leaving because something felt hard to use.
Clients pay attention to results.
Clearer sites tend to get better results.
This is one of the reasons accessibility should not be treated as a separate moral category outside of business. It is part of how a site serves people well.
And when a site serves people well, the business usually benefits too.
Squarespace gives you a foundation, but the final experience is still on you
Squarespace handles some of the platform layer. That helps.
But that does not mean every Squarespace site is automatically accessible.
The final accessibility of a Squarespace website depends heavily on the choices made by the designer, site owner, copywriter, and anyone else adding content over time.
As a Squarespace designer, you still influence things like:
heading order
page structure
color contrast
font size
link text
button labels
image alt text
form setup
navigation flow
animation and motion
third-party embeds
custom code
plugin choices
PDF and file uploads
mobile layout decisions
That is why accessibility cannot be reduced to “the platform handles it.”
The platform may give you a starting point. Your design decisions shape the actual experience.
For a deeper technical reference, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines are the main standard used to evaluate web accessibility. You do not need to memorize every guideline to start doing better work, but you should understand the basics: content should be perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust.
Squarespace also has its own accessibility page, which is worth reviewing if you build on the platform regularly.
Designers need a practical accessibility workflow
You do not need to become a full accessibility specialist overnight.
But you do need a repeatable process.
At minimum, that process should include:
checking heading order before launch
writing meaningful alt text for important images
testing important pages without a mouse
checking color contrast
making sure forms have clear labels and instructions
avoiding vague links like “click here”
reducing unnecessary motion
reviewing mobile layouts carefully
scanning key pages with tools like WAVE or axe DevTools
giving the client basic guidance for maintaining accessibility after launch
This is the same kind of maturity that separates a real practice from one-off production.
The work is not just “make the site.” The work is to build something the client can trust.
You also need somewhere to send clients when the site needs real fixes
This is where I think the Squarespace ecosystem has had a gap.
There are accessibility widgets. There are developer tools. There are checklists. All of those can help.
But sometimes a client does not need another tool to understand the problem. They need someone to fix the site.
That is why I’m glad to see a Squarespace-specific option like Kat ADA.
Kat ADA focuses on accessibility remediation for Squarespace websites. They start with a free scan, then a specialist can make real fixes inside the client’s Squarespace site: things like alt text, labels, contrast, and structure.
That is useful for designers because you do not have to pretend to be an accessibility expert in every situation. You can still build with accessibility in mind, run your basic checks, and then bring in a specialist when a site needs deeper review or remediation.
If you have a client who is worried about accessibility, or if you want to audit one of your own Squarespace sites, you can start here:

Designers who care about these details stand out over time
I’ve watched how designers grow in this ecosystem.
The ones who build steady, respected practices usually share a similar approach: they take the work seriously enough to care about the details.
Not just the details that look good in a portfolio.
The details that make the site easier to read, easier to use, easier to update, and easier to trust.
Accessibility fits into that.
Clients may not always ask for it directly, but they feel the difference between a site that has been assembled and a site that has been built with care.
That difference influences your reputation more than you realize.
Accessible sites serve more people
Your sites will be used by people you may never meet.
People who navigate without a mouse.
People with low vision.
People who need stronger contrast.
People who are sensitive to motion.
People using screen readers.
People on small screens.
People who process information differently.
People who are tired, distracted, injured, aging, overwhelmed, or trying to get something done quickly.
They are part of your client’s audience whether anyone mentions them in the discovery call or not.
A site that works better for them is a better site for everyone.
Accessibility is part of doing good work
When you build with accessibility in mind, your sites become easier to use, easier to maintain, easier to understand, and easier to trust.
You get fewer surprises, fewer avoidable fixes, and fewer confusing moments.
Your clients get a site they are more confident showing to their audience.
And the people using the site get a better experience.
That is the work.
Not just making Squarespace sites look better.
Making them work better for the people they are meant to serve.
