Free Squarespace template detector

Is this a Squarespace site, and which version?

Enter any Squarespace site to see the version (7.0 or 7.1), the template ID and how it does on basic SEO, accessibility and mobile speed.

Free, no signup. We read one page of the site, the same way a browser does.

Theme and page builder

The theme or template, plus builders like Elementor or Divi and the plugins visible in the page.

Hosting and tools

Cloudflare, WP Engine, Kinsta, Vercel and others, plus analytics, ads, chat and payment tools.

Google basics

Title, description, headings, structured data, sitemap and whether Google may list the page.

Accessibility

Image descriptions, page language and overlay widgets that do not make a site compliant.

Mobile speed

Google PageSpeed for phones, with how long the main content takes to show.

How to tell a site runs on Squarespace

You can check by hand too. These are the same signs the checker looks for.

1

Images load from images.squarespace-cdn.com or static1.squarespace.com.

2

The page code contains a comment that says "This is Squarespace."

3

Adding /config to the address shows a Squarespace login.

What the version means for you

Version 7.1 is the current one. Every 7.1 site shares one template system, so the look comes from settings, not a named template.

Version 7.0 sites use named templates that no longer get new features. Moving from 7.0 to 7.1 is a rebuild, not a switch, so it is worth planning.

Questions

Why do I see a template ID instead of a name?

Squarespace stores the template as an ID in the page code. On 7.1 every site shares the same base, so the name tells you little anyway.

Can I move from Squarespace 7.0 to 7.1?

Not with one click. Pages have to be rebuilt in 7.1. Squarespace lets you build a new 7.1 site and switch your domain when it is ready.

Is Squarespace good for SEO?

It covers the basics well. You still need good page titles, real content and a Google Business Profile for local searches.
