Why Is My Squarespace Site Not Showing Up on Google?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 5:27 am

If you’ve built a website on Squarespace and you’re wondering why it’s not showing up on Google, there are a few potential reasons. It’s possible that your site isn’t connected to a Google account, that your site isn’t published, or that your site is set to “Private” in the Sharing Settings.

If your site isn’t connected to a Google account, you won’t be able to see it in search results. To connect your site to a Google account, go to Settings > Connected Accounts > Google and enter your Google credentials.

Once you’ve done this, your site will appear in search results within a few days.

If your site isn’t published, it also won’t appear in search results. To publish your site, go to Settings > Site Publishing and click “Publish Now.

Once you’ve done this, your site should appear in search results within a few days.

If your site is set to “Private,” only people who have the link to your site will be able to see it. To change this setting, go to Settings > Sharing & Permissions > Password Protection. If you want your site to be visible to everyone, select “No” next to “Password protect this site?”

If you want only certain people to be able to see your site, enter a password in the “Password” field and click “Save. ”

Conclusion:
There are several reasons why your Squarespace website might not be appearing on Google. The most common reason is that the website isn’t connected to a Google account or published yet. You can fix both of these issues by going into the settings of your website and following the instructions above.

PRO TIP: If you are having difficulty getting your Squarespace site to show up on Google, there are a few potential reasons why. First, check to make sure that your site is properly connected to Google Search Console. If it is, then the next step is to check your site’s robots.txt file to see if there are any directives preventing Google from indexing your site. Finally, if none of these solutions work, it is possible that your site has been penalized by Google and you will need to contact their support team for assistance.
