Squarespace makes a nice-looking site, but the polish comes with trade-offs. You’re locked into their templates and their way of doing things, the pages carry a lot of weight so they load slowly, and the fee lands every month whether you touch the site or not. The moment you want something the template doesn’t do, you’re stuck. You end up paying a subscription to maintain a site that still isn’t quite yours.

Page Forge is the simpler way. We hand-build your site around your business, not a template, so it looks the part and loads fast. We host it, secure it and make your changes for you, with a real person in Sussex to call. One clear price, everything included, live in days, and if you’re moving from Squarespace we handle the switch, domain and email included.

A much bigger project than a typical small business site, and Nick handled it brilliantly. Multiple pages, interactive guides, the lot. Fast, well built, and he understood exactly what we needed as a technology consultancy. Couldn’t be happier with the result.

FAQ

Common questions

Can you move my existing Squarespace site over?
Yes. We rebuild your site as a fast, clean Page Forge page and handle the move, including your domain and email, so there’s no downtime and nothing for you to sort out.
Is Page Forge cheaper than Squarespace?
Over time, usually yes. Squarespace charges every month for as long as you have the site. With Page Forge you pay a small setup fee and a low monthly that includes hosting, updates and a real person to call, with no jump in price to unlock features.
What happens when I need a change?
You email or message us and we make it, included, up to six times a year. No logins, no template wrestling, no risk of breaking your own site.
