As a follow up to a previous post, in which we took a look at the differences between Squarespace and WordPress — and in parallel to another of our previous posts, in which we had a look at 50 Notable Examples of Extremely Famous Brands Using WordPress — we figured it might be fun to also take a look at some real-life sites using Squarespace.
Whether you’re looking to see what Squarespace can do or examine some of the technicalities of the platform in general — or maybe you’re just looking for a little inspiration to carry over to your own site — here’s a collection of over 35 absolute beauties (some of which you may even recognize).

Know of any other top sites using Squarespace? Any favorites?
Woo, some of my clients made the list! Thanks for putting this together! Squarespace kicks ass.
Can you tell me how many of these websites are “off the rack” Squarespace and how many, if any, were tweaked by a developer? The performance of these sites is way better than the other live Squarespace sites I have seen. Thanks!
What are the base templates for each site? Would be interesting to know. Thank you
Generally I’m a big fan of square space. Especially for content sites. The biggest weakness that I’ve run into, is their e-commerce stuff. It’s okay if you’re new to e-commerce, but once you get a little bigger, an upgrade is usually required. If anybody is doing a migration, I highly recommend this tool (http://export-squarespace-products.com) to help you export your e-commerce related data.
Nice examples.
Squarespace is one of the best DIY website builders. The problem is that it is closed source, which limits customization. If you would like to have a unique, customized website for your business, I would recommend Wiredelta. With their help, you can make professional websites without any coding skills, and they have more themes than Squarespace and Weebly combined.
Which templates did these sites use? This article is of little value without that information.
If anyone else is interested in cryptocurrency this is what i follow. I do not know what template it is but i see it’s hosted via squarspace and i love it: https://www.emchat.net
