With over 10 years’ experience in building Squarespace websites and crafting & curating content into what audiences actually want to see, our specialist team get people like you making an impact online.

Our unique approach to building your personal website

We start with strategy and an initial kick-off session, meaning you’re involved with your digital transformation from the get-go. We’ll work with you to explore how you want your website to look and feel, and to assess what content you’ve got and what content you need to make.

We plan your website structure (everything in its place and a place for everything!). Then we design & build your website, tailored uniquely to you.

Crafted and designed for both desktop and mobile as standard, we’re also able to optimise your content against key search terms, improving your search visibility in Google.

What makes us different?

We’re a team of content specialists, designers, photographers and web builders who weave together all our skills for every project.

Content is a key feature for any website, and we’re experts in taking ‘crumbs’ and spinning it into gold. Whether it’s content capture interviews, photography / video sessions or a mix, we take your words, imagery and information and elevate it to the best it can possibly be, so you’re presented at the highest level and in the brightest light.

Previous work

burningred were a pleasure to work with. I couldn't be happier with the website the team created for me. It looks fantastic, and it is very easy to update and manage independently.

Meg was an outstanding project manager, and Gareth Aled's contribution on the design and graphics side was superb. The team were patient when I needed time to provide the content they needed; they were always available to advise and suggest different approaches when necessary; and they were very accommodating when I wanted to tweak some layouts. I wholeheartedly recommend the burningred team to anyone who needs a personal website.

Squarespace website design & development FAQs

  • Yes. Squarespace's drag-and-drop functionality is intuitive and quick to pick up. In our end-of-project training session, you'll be taught how to update, add or remove sections, elements or entire pages. There's even a mobile app which gives you analytics access plus the ability to make edits to your site, on your phone.

  • It's just a matter of connecting it through either your third party service (i.e. GoDaddy) or through Squarespace itself. We'll chat about your requirements at the outset of the project but flipping to your existing domains is easy to do.

  • The amount of time it takes to build a website can vary greatly depending on many things. From the complexity of the design, the number of features and functionalities required through to the size of the website and number of pages itself.

    A simple brochure-style website with up to 10 pages and limited features can typically be completed in a couple of weeks, while a more complex site with custom features and a large amount of content can take several weeks-months to build.

    The other element that can greatly affect actual ‘live’ date is your content - and the timely provision of it! Projects run on track when the content is provided at the start, so we can get ahead with building and populating your site.

  • This is a tricky one, as there is no ‘one size fits all’; however, the cost of a website can be affected by a number of factors, including the complexity of the design, the number of features and functionalities required, the amount of custom development work needed, and if content is also required.

    Simple brochure-style personal brand websites with a few pages and limited features can cost anywhere from £2000 - £3000, while a larger site with more portfolio pages starts from £3500. See our prices above for more info.

  • Yes, we offer comprehensive training for using Squarespace websites. This can be on a one-to-one basis or be delivered as part of a workshop for an entire team.

    In addition to website training, we also offer SEO training for your specific Content Management System - giving you maximum control over the organic reach of your content and making it work harder.

  • Wix can be a powerful system when used well, but it's traditionally been marketed towards small business owners or personal brands who want to build their websites themselves.

    This is great, but we often find our clients - or potential clients - can't claw back enough time from their day-to-day work to put into designing and building a website. It can be an overwhelming process if you've never done it before, and so our clients tend to prefer to commission us to design and build their website (with their own input and involvement, of course).

    You wouldn't typically expect to see an agency using Wix as their primary website builder - our specialisms are in Squarespace, WordPress and Umbraco, dependent on the client requirements.

  • Yes, we can make websites in specific languages and/or create multi-lingual websites where you have full flexibility and can add different text.

    We also have experience with using third party translation tools (like Google Translate or Weglot) which will automatically create versions of your website.

  • No. One of the great features of Squarespace is that it offers its own dedicated hosting and support services.

  • Yes, we design all websites to be ‘mobile first’ - this means ensuring your website works well on mobiles as a priority over desktop.

    Squarespace is particularly great for mobile user experiences as it's designed for mobile viewing, 'out of the box'.

  • As part of our service, we can install Google Analytics 4 on your website (GA4).
