Squarespace blogging

2) Template selection
Preformatted site styles can be imported into your pages with just a few clicks, ready for you to make amendments as you wish

3) Banner and navigation
You can import your own graphic into the head of a page and make rapid stipulations as to where the header and footer bars sit within the layout

4) Fonts and styles
Here you can access the style classes within the selected template and define new visual rules without touching a single line of code

5) Custom CSS
A slim code viewer lets more technically minded users make swift edits to lower level styles, while a link to the full listing offers a great developer reference

6) Site Config
Typical pages or modules can be added with extreme ease, with further options offered to tailor how they operate and behave within the overall site structure

So what really sets Squarespace apart from the blogging pack?
Anthony Casalena, founder Squarespace

“Everyone says it, but we really mean it: Squarespace is unlike any other blogging or website-building platform out there.
We have created a framework for building websites that is functional, beautiful to look at, and dead simple
to use. We have professionally designed templates that can be customised and tweaked to granular levels (both for those with advanced CSS/HTML skills and those that have none), killer
lightbox photo galleries, advanced form and data collection options and a system that’s flexible enough to allow users to go far beyond what’s offered with any other typical blogging or website building tool.
The cloud infrastructure that supports our client sites is flexible enough to handle huge influxes of traffic (as is often the case with Digg founder Kevin Rose’s blog) and adaptable enough to meet the needs of a diverse group of clients including business owners, photographers, indie rock bands, bloggers, videographers and everything in between. Users always own their own content, and can easily import and export all of their data should they ever wish to do so.”
