3. Why do you choose ShowIt over the other web platforms?
I have gotten a lot of questions about this and had some people ask, “Should I really switch from Squarespace to Showit? I’ve spent so much time, energy, and money learning Squarespace but almost every single time I see a really imaginative and gorgeous site its Showit.”
As soon as I discovered Showit, I was in love. I used WordPress prior, but I also had designed a Squarespace site in college for my sorority. Also, I designed my wedding website on Squarespace when I got married and my portfolio was on there too when I was a student trying to get jobs post-grad. I had a class on WordPress in college, so I had explored them all!
My opinion…
You can build a successful website design business using ANY website platform. I love Showit, and it is perfect for the clients I work with and my design goals. This is KEY!
If my main audience were e-commerce businesses, I would not use Showit. I would use Shopify. For the many life coaches and business coaches I’ve worked with, I would never suggest Shopify to them because Showit fits their needs better.
If Squarespace is your jam, then that’s awesome! There will always be clients who are right for Squarespace and love it! The same goes for WordPress, Kajabi, Wix, any of them.
Only you know if you need to switch platforms, and I think the best thing to do is explore them all and create a free trial and see what resonates with you and who you want to work with!
