Flagstage vs Squarespace.

Squarespace is known for good-looking templates you edit yourself. Flagstage keeps the site you already have current, with a team making the changes. Here's the difference.

Topic	Flagstage	Squarespace
Who makes changes	We do. You describe the change in plain words.	You do, in the Squarespace editor, or someone you hire does.
Starting point	A copy of the site you already have, moved in for you.	A template you build from.
Before a change goes live	A private preview you approve. Nothing ships without it.	Edits go live when you save them.
Earlier versions	Every approved version saved; going back is one request.	No whole-site version history to roll back to.
Taking your site elsewhere	A full download after every update, in standard files any host can serve.	Some content exports to a WordPress-format file; the design stays behind.
Contact forms	Lead Forms: every submission saved, emailed, and downloadable.	Form blocks that email you or save to a connected service.
Your time each month	A message and a preview check.	Whatever the edits take, plus learning the editor.

Switching

Moving off Squarespace

Pages, galleries, and blog posts come over intact. Domains registered with Squarespace, including former Google Domains, can stay where they are.

How switching works

Will my galleries and blog come over?

Yes. We copy the public pages, photos, and posts as they appear today, then check them on desktop and phone.

Do I need to move my domain away from Squarespace?

No. Your registration can stay where it is. You update the records so the address points at Flagstage, and we confirm everything from our side.

Can I still use my Squarespace store?

We don't import carts or checkout. We can host the rest of your site and link to your store where it lives.
