Last updated on December 21, 2022 @ 5:31 pm

You can use your own domain with Squarespace! In order to do this, you will need to purchase a domain from a domain provider and then connect it to your Squarespace account.

Once your domain is connected, you can set it as your primary domain, which will allow you to use it with your Squarespace account and take advantage of all the features that Squarespace offers.

PRO TIP: If you’re using Squarespace, you can use your own domain name (like www.yourname.com). However, there are a few things to keep in mind:

    1. You’ll need to set up DNS settings with your domain registrar.
    2. You’ll need to point your domain name to Squarespace’s servers.
    3. If you’re transferring an existing website to Squarespace, you’ll need to update your DNS settings and wait for the transfer to complete before your site will appear at your new domain.

Failure to properly set up DNS could result in your website not appearing at your custom domain, or worse, someone else’s website appearing at yours! So be careful and make sure you follow the instructions carefully.
