Better Data Presentation with Chart Blocks

No matter what your ideas are, Squarespace wants to provide you with the tools to present them in a beautiful way. That’s why we’re excited to announce the newest addition to our tools: Chart Blocks. Whether you're a non-profit organization, a financial or political blogger, or just really like graphs and stats, Chart Blocks allow you to present your data in an effective and attractive way.

Chart Blocks come in three shapes: line, bar, and pie. They’re fully responsive, so they look great on any device. You can also customize them with a variety of color palettes.

You can use Chart Blocks to show a business’s growth over time, the change in ratings for your favorite TV show, or the results of a poll you held on your website. Making charts is as easy as copying and pasting from a .csv file, but you can also add data cell-by-cell in the editor.
