01Quick answer
What does a Squarespace web designer do?
A Squarespace web designer designs and builds your site inside Squarespace, adds custom code where the editor stops, and sets up SEO, commerce and scheduling properly. You keep full control and can edit everything yourself after launch.

03Who it is for
Built for people like you.
Most of these clients are in the US, UK, Canada and Australia, and I have worked with clients in 70 countries.
Not the right fit if you need complex member areas or heavy integrations. WordPress usually suits those better.
-
Therapists and coaches
A calm, personal site with scheduling and forms connected, that you can edit without calling anyone.
-
Authors, creatives and advisors
A site that looks custom, not like the template everyone else picked, with room to grow into.
-
Agencies and designers
Custom code, layouts and commerce on Squarespace 7.1, delivered under your brand.
04Sound familiar?
What usually goes wrong.
01
It looks like everyone else
The template was a good start, but now your site looks like a thousand others and does not feel like your brand.
02
The editor stops short
You need a layout, a feature or an integration that Squarespace does not offer out of the box.
03
Nobody finds it
The site is live, but it does not show up on Google for the services you offer.
05Under the hood
Squarespace, beyond the editor.
Where most of the custom work happens on a Squarespace 7.1 site, and what a Circle Platinum Partner handles every week.
01
Fluid Engine layouts
Sections laid out in Squarespace 7.1 Fluid Engine, with their own mobile arrangement so pages look intentional on a phone.
02
Custom CSS
Fonts, spacing, buttons and section styles beyond the Site Styles panel, kept in one tidy, commented stylesheet.
03
JavaScript and code injection
Scripts added through code injection or code blocks for features the editor lacks, loaded only on the pages that need them.
04
Custom sections and animations
Accordions, tabs, sliders, sticky elements and subtle scroll animations that still edit like normal blocks.
05
Member areas and courses
Free or paid member sites, gated pages and courses, set up with pricing, access rules and welcome emails.
06
Commerce and subscriptions
Products, variants, subscriptions and digital downloads, with a checkout that works smoothly on a phone.
07
Acuity Scheduling
Appointment types, intake forms, reminders and payments, embedded so booking feels like part of your site.
08
Integrations
Email platforms, Google Analytics, Meta pixel, CRMs and Zapier connected, plus third-party widgets where needed.
09
Squarespace SEO
Page titles, descriptions, clean URLs, alt text, 301 redirects and Search Console, set up for every page.

How much does a Squarespace website cost?
It depends on the pages and features you need. After a short call I send a fixed quote, so the full price is clear before any work starts. The Squarespace plan itself is paid to Squarespace.
Is Squarespace good for SEO?
Yes, for most small businesses. Squarespace handles the technical basics well, and I set up titles, descriptions, headings, alt text and page structure so each page has a clear topic.
What is a Squarespace Circle Platinum Partner?
Circle is Squarespace's program for professional web designers. I am a Circle Platinum Partner, which means working as a Squarespace web designer for clients is a regular part of my week.
Can you add custom code to Squarespace?
Yes. As a Squarespace expert I use code blocks, code injection and small scripts to cover most needs, from custom sections to third-party widgets, and I keep the code documented so it survives updates.
Can you move my site to Squarespace from Wix or WordPress?
Yes. I rebuild the pages in Squarespace, move your content and images, and redirect every old URL so your search rankings carry over.
Will I be able to edit my Squarespace site myself?
Yes. Everything stays editable in the normal Squarespace editor, and you get a recorded walkthrough at handover.
How long does a Squarespace website take?
Most Squarespace sites take two to five weeks from the approved quote to launch, depending on the pages, the custom code and how quickly content is ready.
What do I need to provide?
Your logo, page text or notes, photos, and contributor access to your Squarespace site. The account and billing stay in your name.
What are the most common Squarespace mistakes?
Demo text and default SEO settings left in place, heavy code pasted across the whole site, oversized images, and Fluid Engine layouts never checked on a phone. Each one is easy to fix once you know where to look.
