How Do I Test My Squarespace Website?

Last updated on December 20, 2022 @ 6:20 pm

As a Squarespace user, you may find yourself wondering how you can test your site before making it live for the world to see. Fortunately, Squarespace makes it easy to do just that.

With just a few clicks, you can create a test site that you can use to try out new features or changes before making them live on your actual site. Here’s how:

1. Log in to your Squarespace account and go to the Settings panel.

2. In the Site Management section, click Advanced.

3. Scroll down to the Publishing section and click Create Test Site.

4. Enter a name for your test site and click Create. Your test site will now be created and you’ll be taken to its dashboard.

5. From here, you can make any changes or additions that you want to test out. Once you’re satisfied with the results, you can publish your changes by clicking the Publish to Live Site button.

And that’s it! Now you know how to create and use a test site on Squarespace.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with coding or website development, Squarespace is not the platform for you. While Squarespace is known for its easy-to-use, drag-and-drop interface, the platform is still a complex system. If you’re not careful, you can easily break your site.

Conclusion:


Now that you know how easy it is to create a test site on Squarespace, there’s no excuse not to use one! Test sites are a great way to try out new ideas or changes before making them live on your actual site. So next time you’re considering making a change to your Squarespace site, be sure to create a test site first.
