Squarespace vs. WordPress vs. Showit SEO: REAL RANKING RESULTS 2024!

[@addiejohnsonn]

Super interesting video, Paige! So now that you've seen the data, and both website platforms seem to be performing similarly, do you think you have any hypotheses for what was causing the drop in page views through March-August 2021? Do you think it was just an overall organic search trend that was less indexing of 'website design'? Really interesting and looking forward to your thoughts!! Always love that you focus on organic search vs social/paid advertising :)

Amazing test! I love it! I've designed in Wordpress for almost 20 years now... I personally prefer Elementor than Showit. I Never really liked Squarespace but I'm looking for something easier for non-tech clients. Thanks for sharing!

[@PaigeBrunton]

Mmm makes sense! Trying to help a technophobic client on their complex site builder after the project is done is always rather a hassle. I think you and your non-techy clients will genuinely love Squarespace when you try it!

[@viiidreams]

[@PaigeBrunton]

Hi happy sunday ! I like teh concept of the squarespace builder so much easier to use as wordpress with the gutenberg thing.... Today I see a lot of ss websites have whopping loading fast,does the squarespace team improved their platform specs?

[@roguenerdd]

Thanks for the video! I was wondering

[@PaigeBrunton]

Awwe thanks for takin' the time to say! Anndd yup - I you're not alone with that - so much chat about it, so good to actually test it and find out!

[@joannajensenphotography8191]

wow thank you for sharing. This is incredible. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm so sorry you had to do all of this work to find this out though. That sucks

What about the showit pages (not the wordpress pages hosted on a showit website but the actual showit pages) - what about those pages' SEO, any good?

[@PaigeBrunton]

Fab question Amelia! It's all the same really. The point I'd take away is basically, what's on the pages and the site is what matters significantly more than which website hosting company the pages are with!

[@Julian-Weber]

I checked your site and you moved it back to Squarespace? Is that correct?

[@PaigeBrunton]

Correct! Very happily back on Squarespace

[@MauiBodyworker]

I’ll stick with Squarespace thanks for this
