An EPK, or electronic press kit, is a digital portfolio that helps you promote your music to journalists, bloggers, and booking agents. If you’re a musician, you need an EPK. But can you make an EPK on Squarespace?

The short answer is yes, you can make an EPK on Squarespace. Squarespace is a website builder that allows you to create a professional website with no coding required. And with Squarespace’s built-in blogging feature, you can easily create an online press kit that will help you get the word out about your music.

PRO TIP: If you are considering using Squarespace to create an EPK, be aware that there are some significant limitations. First and foremost, there is no built-in template or easy way to create an EPK on Squarespace. You will need to use the code editor to create a custom page or import a pre-made template. Secondly, Squarespace does not offer any kind of media management system, so you will need to host your audio and video files elsewhere and embed them on your Squarespace site. Finally, there is no way to password protect your EPK pages, so anyone who has the URL will be able to view them.

Here are some tips for creating an EPK on Squarespace:

  • Choose the right template: Look for a template that has a clean and professional design. You want your EPK to look polished and professional, so avoid templates that are too busy or gimmicky.
  • Include all the essential information: Your EPK should include your biography, press photos, tour dates, and contact information.

    Make it easy for journalists and booking agents to find the information they need.

  • Make it easy to share: Include social sharing buttons on your EPK so it can be easily shared online. You can also embed your EPK onto your own website or blog.

With these tips in mind, you can easily create an EPK on Squarespace. So get started today and promote your music like a pro!
