Frequently Asked Questions

About My Web Design Process

What's your approach to Squarespace web design?

I leverage Squarespace's powerful platform to create beautiful, functional websites that perfectly match your brand without all the DIY stress. My process starts with understanding your goals and vision, then carefully selecting and customizing the perfect Squarespace design to bring that vision to life. I focus on creating an engaging user experience while taking full advantage of Squarespace's built-in features.

How long does it typically take to complete a Squarespace website?

Most Squarespace projects take 3-6 weeks from kickoff to launch, depending on the complexity of your needs. However, because I work with Squarespace's streamlined platform, I can deliver faster than traditional custom-coded websites while maintaining excellent quality.

What's included in your Squarespace design services?

My comprehensive Squarespace packages include the following:

  • Template selection and customization

  • Mobile-responsive design optimization

  • Integration of Squarespace's built-in SEO tools

  • Connection of your domain and SSL certification

  • Training session for managing your site

  • 14 days of post-launch support

Can you only create new websites or redesign existing Squarespace sites?

I do both! Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to improve an existing Squarespace site, I can help. For redesigns, I'll evaluate your current site and either refresh your existing design or migrate you to a new one that better serves your needs.

Investment and Pricing

What does a Squarespace website investment look like?

My Squarespace design services typically cost between $2,000 and $8,000+, depending on your needs and project complexity. However, this doesn't include Squarespace's subscription fees, which I'll help you select based on your business requirements. After I understand your needs, I'll provide a detailed quote.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes! I understand that web design is an investment. I offer a flexible payment schedule: 34% to secure your spot on my calendar, 33% at the start of the project, and the final 33% due before launch.

Working Together

What do you need from me to get started?

To begin your Squarespace project, I’ll need the following:

  • Brand assets (logo, colors, fonts)

  • Copy/content and high-quality images

  • Examples of your favorite or competitor websites

  • Clear goals for your new website

Don't worry if you don't have everything ready – I will guide you through gathering these materials.

How involved will I be in the process?

I've designed my process to be collaborative while respecting your time. I'll have key check-in points for feedback and approval, but you won't need to be involved in every detail. You'll have access to a preview of your site throughout the development process.

What happens after my website launches?

After launch, you'll receive:

  • A comprehensive training session on managing your Squarespace site

  • Documentation for common updates

  • 14 days of priority support

  • Optional monthly maintenance packages

I’m also available for future updates or changes as your business grows.
