FAQs

  • If your business is primarily service-based and you want a website that’s easy to manage, looks great and works well without an ounce of coding knowledge - yes!

    Squarespace is our number one recommendation for service-based businesses because it’s so simple to use but still looks sleek and professional (especially with a custom Squarespace template).

    Plus, if you decide to start selling digital products or a small number of physical products, Squarespace has a pretty good e-commerce function too - so your website can grow as your business does.

  • Once your shiny new Squarespace website is ready to launch, you’ll need to sign up for a Squarespace subscription. There are different levels of subscription depending on your needs- but don’t forget you’ll get a 25% discount on your first annual plan through our Squarespace Circle Platinum status.

    You can find out more about Squarespace’s plans and pricing here.

  • It definitely won’t look like everyone else’s! The branding used in our Squarespace templates is really easy to update. All you need to do is watch your video trainings and then use the Squarespace design editor to add your colour palette, your logos and your fonts into the template - and instantly every element of your website will reflect your business’ branding.

  • You can duplicate any of the designed pages in the Squarespace template in a couple of clicks, so you can build from a professionally-designed starting point. Or you can start from scratch to design your own new pages too.

    Squarespace has lots of useful resources to help you get to grips with the design platform, but it’s really simple and intuitive to use so you’ll get the hang of it quickly.

  • Not at all! Our Squarespace templates come pre-loaded with some custom-coded features that take your website to the next level, you don’t need to have any knowledge of coding to customise your Squarespace template.

    Adding your branding, your imagery and your copy to your Squarespace template is as easy as dragging-and-dropping and copying-and-pasting - with no coding needed.

  • Yes - Squarespace has a number of features, including a blog, e-commerce function, and appointment scheduling system, that you can add to your website.

    Depending on which Squarespace plan you choose, you may need to upgrade to access more features - but that option is there for you, so your website can grow as your business does.

  • As a perk of buying your Squarespace template through us, you get an extended 12-month trial period - which means you have 12 months to customise your website with your branding, your imagery and your copy. When you’re ready to publish your site to the world (or once it gets to the end of the 12-month trial period), you’ll need to purchase your Squarespace subscription to get your website live!

  • No - each Squarespace template comes with a one-seat licence - which means it can be used for only one personal or commercial website project. If you want to create more than one website with a template, you’ll need to purchase another copy of the Squarespace template to do so.

    You are not allowed to resell your Squarespace template or claim the design as your own. If you are a website designer yourself, you can purchase a template licence and customise the template for your client’s website - but you must purchase a new template for every client.

    If you have any questions about how licencing works for Squarespace templates, please drop us an email for clarification.

  • Not currently.

    It’s not simple to apply a new Squarespace template to an existing Squarespace website, because there are so many factors and elements that are included in the template design.

    If you have a Squarespace website already and want to level up with one of our Squarespace templates, the best plan is to purchase a Squarespace template and build it as if you were building a new site - but obviously you can re-use your images, your copy and your branding from your current website!
