How Do I Add an Email Capture to Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 6:25 am

Adding an email capture to your Squarespace site is a great way to grow your audience and keep them updated on your latest content. There are a few different ways to go about this, and the best method for you will depend on your specific needs.

If you just want to add a simple sign-up form to your site, the easiest way to do this is through Squarespace’s built-in Form Block. This can be found in the Block Library (under the “Basic” category) and added to any page on your site.

Once you’ve added the Form Block, you can customize it to collect whatever information you need from your visitors. Be sure to include an email address field, as this is how Squarespace will collect your visitor’s information.

PRO TIP: If you are using Squarespace to build your website, be aware that there is no built-in email capture function. You will need to use a third-party service or add your own code to create an email capture form.

If you need more control over your sign-up forms, or if you want to use a third-party service to manage your email list, there are a few other options available to you. One popular option is MailChimp, which integrates with Squarespace through our Code Block.

This gives you the ability to add custom sign-up forms to your site, and gives you more control over how your forms look and function. You can find instructions on how to set up this integration here.

Another option is to use our Embed Block to embed a sign-up form from another service onto your Squarespace site. Many email providers offer HTML code that you can copy and paste into this block, which will display the form on your page. Some services that offer this option include Constant Contact, AWeber, and MailerLite.

No matter which method you choose, adding an email capture to your Squarespace site is a great way to grow your audience and keep them updated on your latest content.
