I love your video infact i have gone through them like so much for me to understand cause am a begginer and I have been doing lots of research and I tried to just build a website using WordPress and. Squarespace but for some reason I get stuck on the way and I don't quite understand how to buy Domaine while in the site please I don't how your going to help me but I need your help am feeling disappointed
I'm a 53 year old male accountant who grew up when computers were just coming out. I know how to use the basic office programs and surf the net. But I never knew you could make a website so easily. Good video for a middle-aged person like me. Thanks.
that is so good, good job!
Please do "Selling on squarespace" with tax calculator included and redirecting page to another web-site where you need to complete an formular to buy an product!
Did you do it all all? I need to know how to see I have no idea how
Yes please, I would really appreciate you doing an Ecomerce video if you could. Your videos are so easy to follow and very helpful. Thank you.
YES AN ECOMMERCE VIDEO PLEASE!!!
Thank you, Mike, for providing such an informative video. As a designer embarking on starting my own business, I'm so glad to come across your video prior to launching my website. Your demonstration of Squarespace covered everything I needed to know. To be honest, Squarespace exceeded my expectations. I'm relieved to discover that creating a website is not as challenging as I anticipated. I'm feeling pumped and ready to give it a shot. A big THANK YOU!
Exactly what I was looking for, specifically the Getting a Domain and Publishing. THANK YOU!!
Love your videos, very easy to follow and well explained. Thank you! I would appreciate an e-commerce one with all the ins and outs of setting up shop in Squarespace! :)
Thank you!!!! I went from feeling overhwlemed and wanting to cry... to... this looks pretty good and is actually super easy and awesome to build once you get the hang of it!.. All thanks to this video!!
Thank you so much. You saved me! I need to build a website asap without paying for it and was really struggling but after following along with you, it’s almost done 😊
Hi Mike, thanks for the video. This is the absolute beginner start of my Squarespace and website journey. I''m an artist looking to set up a portfolio site. The big take-away for me was to work with the design first before changing and loading your own content. I also now know what SEO means!
Thank you! This gives me a general idea of what I'm about to dive into with enough detail that I have a plan!
Thanks for making this simple and easy to understand! I’m trying to start a squarespace templates business (where I sell premade squarespace templates) and I was really excited to get started until I saw all the customization options and what have you. It was very overwhelming but this video makes it looks easy, thanks!
A wonderful whistle-stop tour. Thank you Mike 😀
Glad to see squarespace adopted the Grid interface similar to Zyro. All website builders need to adopt this.
Awesome tutorials! Thanks for bringing the beginner videos to us. Merry Christmas🙂
Great video! Super helpful, easy to understand and informative. Feeling very confident now in designing my websites. Thank you!
This is an awesome tutorial. Covering everything we need to know. Thanks!
Thank you for being so transparent. I'm not computer savvy AT ALL. You help make it easier for me to navigate through website💙
Love this, just looking for it. Thank you!
I'm moving from Squarespace 7.0 to 7.1, and found this video most helpful. Thanks for your time!
Thanks Mike. What a lot of info. First time I ever slowed play back speed.
Great video! I'm a Sound Designer and I want to create a website to just have a quick link to my portfolio for future clients and I would also like to start selling sound packs and Your video helped me tremendously with navigating the whole process of building that, thanks!
This was so helpful in building my very own yoga website and doing that for the first time! Thanks so much for this amazing content which was perfect to just listen and directly working through it as you were explaining.
Great work!
Where did u buy the domain from?
This is fantastic. Thanks for posting and sharing!
Dude, this was a great video. Helped me figure out how to set up my website without paying someone to d it for me. I save your video to watch and re-watched it again to improve my site. Thanks
This is awesome. Thank you Mike. I cant wait to get started
Great video. Very clear and concise. I subscribed so I can see more. Thanks
Hi Mike,
It was an amazing watch! I think Squarespace is one of the least explored platforms online. I have suggested it to some friends who are just getting online, and I think this video will be the perfect guide for them. It really was a great share, and I am sure many people will love it. I think it’s very beginner-friendly, and will help a lot of viewers. I will definitely share within my network and anyone who is getting started with Squarespace.
And that’s a good thing
Very helpful for breaking through the fear of creating a website. Squarespace looks even easier than Weebly. One thing though, please look up the meaning of "robust." You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Very packed full of clear useful linear information. Like others it can be a daunting task to start. Let the Journey begin. Thanks Mike
Hi Mike,
I'm a big fan of your videos and they have been a great resource to me. Thank you! Would you consider adding an ADA Accessibility component to your various website development videos? It is something that is needed and I don't see if any of the website platforms have this feature.
Nice work mate, you're likable, smart and I like your video. Thanks.
I’d be very interested in a video about selling on Squarespace. I looked through your channel’s videos and found one on e-commerce from a couple years ago, but it seemed like you mentioned in this video to leave a comment if we’d be interested in learning more on selling rather than referring back to the e-commerce video you had already done. Thank you. I’m in the process of building a site and this was very helpful information.
This was excellent! Thank you!
Extremely helpful!
Great tutorial! Thank you
Great video! Thank you for making it
This was very helpful. Thank you!
Very informative, thank you!
Great video!
This video is so very helpful. Thank you
Thank you!
Awesome video, love this
To see what would look like on different sized monitors, pop the tab out and change its size by using the corners! Works amazing.
Thanks for sharing
I built a site using GoD-- a few years ago. But their tools are limited for creating a blog. I did research & decided to use SquareSpace for my new site. Thanks for this helpful tutorial! Your time stamps are a great quick reference tool. 👍🏼
Do you need help with Redesigning your SquareSpace store?
Thank you so much for the video and dwelling on the. new controls we have in 7.1
Amazing video thank you! I'm about to redesign my website (it's nearly 8 years old!) and was thinking of wordpress, but your video just changed my mind. Square Space looks so much better to work on!
Squarespace is definitely an amazing builder that offers more control and better customization over your website.
What's your experience working with it, and are you stuck at any point?
Do you need help with Redesigning your SquareSpace store?
Very helpful video. Thanks Mike.
Hi. Love to see a Selling on Squarespace article - Great content on this video.😊
Awesome tutorial! This helped me a ton. Thanks a lot!
Thank you Sir!
Thank you Mike. Please could you make a video on updating your website with your new information so that it may look fresh? Thank you.
I finished the entire video. Never skipped a second. Good tutorial. Do you have a WordPress tutorial too? I plan to start blogging.
I keep watching this brilliant video for reference. Thank you Mike
Very welcome
Nice👍
This video was soo helpful thank you Mike
My Squarespace looks much different. There must have been a big update recently. The first time I am told to click EDIT I cannot see anything that looks like this video when you click EDIT.
great video, helped me out a ton.
Thanks for a great tutorial. As the tutorial uses the cursor so much, please consider enlarging your screen cursor (or other similar effect) so it is easier to follow where it moves to.
Can y’all do a video on starting a web development company? One that utilizes squarespace and Shopify and the other website building platforms? I’ve recently started a digital media marketing in which I’ve made a few websites but I’ve had a hard time pricing it. Thanks for all the videos
That was a great video thanks Mike! Can i ask one question - do i need to pre optimise my images (size, pixels, etc) before uploading or does squarespace do that for me on uploading?? Conscious of image res and bad SEO / load speed? Thanks
This video is very helpful.
I would love a video on how to make money, and sell stuff on Squarespace with the commerce option. Great video. Thank you!
thank you
Definitely a paid promotion and self promotion smart we need more ppl like you
Thank you! this video was so helpfull
I like your channel, thank youuu 😊
i just bought domain, i told squarespace I get to know Squarespace from you.
thanks bro
amazing and helpful video. please make the video on selling. specially in different countries.
Hi Mike, great video! I would love to learn more about how to sell on Squarespace!
Awesome video. thank you! yes like a sell video please, thanks
Suuuch a massively helpful video! *liked and subscribed*
Thank you for your kind words Cailyn. Good luck with your website!
E-commerce video would be awesome!
Thank you so much, Mike, I liked your tutorial as you presented helpful information. is it possible to use Squarespace for building a scientific journal website as well?.
I would not choose Squarespace just for one reason. I don't see how much it will cost me before I start building it. Pricing should be visible before I start doing anything.
I feel like this was a great guide when it was published in 2022. SS has already changed enough around that I'm having difficulty following along in 2023 :(
Thank you so much!
You're welcome. Thank you for watching!
Hello Mike, thank you for a great video! I am just curious, how easy is it to make a video where you're in a circle and your demonstrating your screen. Would you mind sharing what tool you're using to do this?
Hello thank you so much for this video I wish I would have found it sooner. Please create another video showing how to sale on Square Space
Great tutorial. I think I am going back to WordPress. I want to insert photos into bodies of text and have a description under each photo. I couldn't get a handle on changing fonts. I am building a travel blog/site.
Found your channel and it has helped a lot. I have a dilemma I can not figure out. I created an About page that goes in my navigation bar. The problem is I did not create the About page as an About folder. Is there a way to change the page to a folder or do I just have to retreat the whole thing?
I don't see any of the tools in the top bar (theme editor, etc.) on any of the browsers on my MacBook (iOS 13.5.2).
Nice shirt, Mike!
Thank you!
I need to know what kind of benefits the calendar can give if I am traveling to the locations that people book. For example, does it map it for me so that the client can tell if with travel time I can get to their location in time for the time they need. Can client book directly on the calendar? Does the site allow me to send a text or email reminder of the event automatically, etc.
Thanks for the video. I learned a lot. We are a very small town and we don’t have a website. Would like a website to share our town news, plus include a calendar for our monthly food bank. We also want to publish our community center calendar so potential clients can look and see when our center is available to rent. We rent it for community events like birthdays ect…..
If we created a website through Squarespace , what would be your recommendation for a calendar where folks could see the availability and maybe in the future, write their name in for a specific date………
Thank you so much for this!! I now feel more confidence in starting to set up my website. : ) Just a quick question. I already have a blog that has been in existence for 10 years.... is there any way to connect the blog to my SquareSpace so that I can keep my subscribers rather than start a whole new one on my SS website? Thx!
I’m selling on Etsy all your videos are amazing can you make a video how to sell using squarespace
I'm super interested in selling my art on squarespace and would love to hear your advice video on that!
I am trying to make a generic list in a text box but when I hit return the spacing is way too wide between lines. How do I narrow the gap between the lines? I want the text to be right under the previous line but when I hit the return it's like I hit the line twice. Is there a good way to create a general list?
Can you please make a video explaining selling items on square space. i really understood your explanation on this video and I thank you
Mike, Thanks for this video. It was very helpful. One question I have is the contact us page form. Where does that information go to? How do you send that up and link it to a email or google drive? Thanks!
interested in building commerce website so let me know when you release one
Thank you for this tutorial which will be very helpful to a novice such as me. A few questions, if I may be allowed: how do you build the file of pictures that you are uploading as you are building the website? Are these simply gathered in Windows pictures, for example? Most if not all membership websites have TOS in among their disclaimers. How do you add such information? Can you archive web content in Squarespace? Thank so much for sharing your thoughts.
Hi, Ted. Great question about photos. You can upload photos from your computer. Typically what you see in the library is images that have recently been uploaded. When I am working on a client's site, I upload the images they provide or I source stock photos. I hope this helps. --NC with Katherine Kole Mktg
Hey there. Can you explain how to see version history of your website? Can you revert back to different versions after you’ve made and saved some edits? Trying to understand how to protect my site. Thanks!
I have a squareup website, and I understand you can link that site with squarespace. It that where you add your domain. I would like to see something about the e-commence setup.
Is it possible to change your template after you’ve picked one?
Hi, i am wondering if someone can give me an advise. How can i add a second Domain. I added a web-Domain. now i would like to get an email-Domain (an personalized email address which matches my website) and it doesn't let me do it. It says google allows only 1 Domain. Would really appreciate any advise. Thanks
