Gets the job done
I can't say what it's like to build a site on squarespace, I didn't use it that way. I did buy a domain name through them and connected it to a site I built through google sites. I found the process of connecting the domain name to the site to be extremely difficult and not intuitive at all. It's not impossible to do, but if you do this, save yourself the hassle of figuring it out yourself, and get help through their chat assisstance function. The chat function was relatively easy to use and the person who helped me did a good job of helping me complete the steps I needed to do and they waited patiently as I did them. I wish the process was easier and intuitive so I could have done it myself, I also don't care for the AI functions, but that's my personal preference.
