Hi,

Can anyone direct me to any resources for how to move away from squarespace? I have a small website on there at the moment and my experience with them has been riddled with bugs and poor customer service, which is very annoying considering how much I pay them.

Is there a good way to move to a free open source alternative. I wouldn't know how to write any code but otherwise I'm reasonably competent I think.

Thanks

Depends how complicated your site is. If it is a static site, you might just be able to buy a nice template (or find a free one) and host it yourself

Can you link to where template can be bought, what the template is used on, and what software is needed to host it? Otherwise this comment is not very helpful..
