Should I Buy a Domain Through Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 2:59 am

When you’re ready to start a website, one of the first things you need to do is purchase a domain name. Your domain is your website’s address on the internet, and it’s what customers will type in to find your site. You can buy a domain through Squarespace or through a third-party provider.

If you buy a domain through Squarespace, we register it on your behalf and it automatically renews each year. If you buy your domain elsewhere, you need to manually renew it.
