Squarespace is one of the best-looking website builders out there, no argument. But every update, every price change, every new photo still means logging into their editor and figuring it out yourself. The design is polished. The upkeep is not automated.
In a line: Squarespace is the right call if you want a full online store or a library of designer templates. MCP Village is the right call if you want a professional site that stays current because you just tell your AI what changed.
Squarespace plans run about $16–23 a month, billed year after year. That works out to $200–280 annually, whether you touched the site once or a hundred times.
Every update means logging in, navigating their editor, and remembering how it all fits together. The wrong hours and the old menu price tend to stick around because the friction is just high enough.
Their AI feature helps you get started, but it's capped, because AI costs them money and they have to manage that. It is not your own unlimited assistant.
Squarespace prices are based on their published plans and change periodically. Check their site for current rates.
If you're running a full online shop with dozens of products, inventory, and checkout, Squarespace is built for that and we are not. If you want to browse 190+ designer templates and have a 24/7 phone support line to call, they have both. MCP Village is built for a focused, professional site for a local business, a solo maker, or a service provider who just wants it to stay accurate without becoming a part-time webmaster.
MCP Village costs $29.95 a year. Connect the AI you already pay for and keep your site current by saying so.
