您的 Squarespace 網站每小時都在損失客戶
如果您是創辦人,看著競爭對手用更差的內容排名高於您,您的 8 秒載入時間就是原因。
Why leave Squarespace?
- Downloads 300–600KB of platform JavaScript on every page load, slowing mobile Time to Interactive to 6–9 seconds
- Delivers Lighthouse scores of 35–60 on mobile, triggering Google's speed-based ranking filters
- Locks your design inside template constraints that prevent custom layouts, animations, or component logic
- Charges $23–65/month for a subscription model where you never own the codebase or deployment pipeline
- Loads full commerce functionality (cart, checkout, inventory scripts) on non-commerce pages, bloating every request
- Blocks custom API integrations, headless CMS connections, and server-side logic your business model needs
What you gain
- Lighthouse 95–100 mobile scores from day one, passing Core Web Vitals and avoiding speed-based ranking penalties
- Full design freedom to build custom layouts, animations, and interactions without template system limits
- You own the entire codebase and can deploy to any host, switch agencies, or hire in-house without vendor lock-in
- Hosting costs drop to $0–20/month on Vercel or Netlify versus $23–65/month recurring Squarespace fees
- Custom functionality -- headless CMS, third-party APIs, dynamic pricing, member portals -- without platform restrictions
- Sub-2-second page loads that recover 5–12% conversion rate lost to Squarespace's JavaScript bloat
Squarespace 的性能問題
Squarespace 建構美觀的網站。不過它也會向每位訪客傳送大量的 JavaScript -- Squarespace 平台框架、所有範本指令碼和商務功能都會載入,無論頁面是否使用它們。Mobile Lighthouse 分數在 35-60 範圍內是 Squarespace 網站的典型表現。
對於依賴有機搜尋的企業來說,這是一個真正的問題。在更快堆疊上的競爭對手因為具有更好的 Core Web Vitals 而超越同等內容的排名。
從 Squarespace 遷移涉及的內容
Squarespace 具有部落格文章的內容匯出功能(XML)。產品資料透過 CSV 匯出。頁面和自訂內容需要結構化提取。我匯出所有內容,使用 Next.js 和 Tailwind CSS 重建設計系統,並以顯著更好的效能實現相同的視覺美感。
保留有效的內容
如果您的 Squarespace 網站的設計您喜歡,我會在程式碼中忠實地重建它 -- 通常在此過程中改進它,使其能以 Squarespace 範本限制所阻止的方式進行回應式設計。

|---|---|---|
| Lighthouse (mobile) | 35–60 | 95–100 |

Common questions
Will my Squarespace design be preserved?
I rebuild the design as React components matching your current Squarespace aesthetic. In many cases the rebuilt site looks better because Next.js gives full CSS control without Squarespace template constraints.
What happens to my Squarespace blog?
Squarespace exports blog posts as XML. I import all posts into Supabase or Sanity with metadata, categories, tags, and featured images preserved.
What about Squarespace Commerce?
Squarespace Commerce exports products as CSV. I migrate products to Shopify (if you need managed e-commerce) or to a headless commerce setup with Next.js + Stripe for custom checkout.
Why does Squarespace score badly on Lighthouse?
Squarespace loads the full platform framework on every page — including commerce functionality on pages that are not shops. This adds 300-600KB of JavaScript that cannot be removed. It is not a configuration issue; it is the platform architecture.
Will my SEO improve after migration?
Almost certainly. Moving from Lighthouse 35-60 to 95-100 removes a negative ranking signal. Combined with preserved URL structure and SEO metadata, most clients see ranking improvements within 60-90 days.
