How Do I Make My Squarespace Site Go Live?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 2:48 am

When you’re ready to make your Squarespace site go live, there are a few things you need to do. First, you need to purchase a domain name. You can do this through Squarespace or through a third-party provider like GoDaddy or Hover. Once you have your domain name, you need to set it up to work with your Squarespace site.

This is called connecting your domain. You can do this yourself or have Squarespace do it for you. If you’re doing it yourself, you’ll need to change some settings at your domain registrar and then add some DNS records at Squarespace. If you’re having Squarespace connect your domain for you, they’ll take care of all of that for you.

After your domain is connected, you need to choose a subscription plan. Squarespace offers two plans: Personal and Business.

The Personal plan is great for most people who are just getting started with their website. The Business plan has some extra features that businesses might find useful, like the ability to sell products online and use custom logos. Once you’ve chosen a plan, you can enter your payment information and start using all of Squarespace’s features.

If you ever need help getting started with Squarespace or have any questions along the way, our Customer Care team is available 24/7 over chat, email, and phone.
