FAQs

Why do you design on Squarespace instead of other platforms?
I exclusively design on Squarespace for these five reasons:
1. User-friendly interface
2. Built-in security + SEO
3. All-in-one web platform
4. Highly customizable design options
5. Affordable for any budget -
Are there additional costs for a new website design?
Yes. Here’s what to keep in mind:
Domain Name: If you don’t already own one, you’ll need to purchase it (I recommend using Squarespace – around $20).
Website Hosting: Squarespace hosting plans start at approximately $18/month.
Stock Images: Some images are free, but custom or premium imagery may come with an additional cost.
Copywriting: Website copy isn’t included in our packages, but if you need it, I can provide a quote to add it to your project.
-
How involved do I need to be in the design process?
It’s entirely up to you! You can choose:
Hands-On: Collaborate closely and provide feedback every step of the way.
Selective Input: Share your vision and key preferences, then let me run with it.
Laid-Back: Trust me to handle it all and review the final design when it’s ready.

Do I need a domain name before we start working together?
Nope! You don’t need a domain before we begin. I can help you choose one and get it set up through Squarespace. If you already have a domain, then we can transfer it to Squarespace before we launch.
-
Who owns the website once it’s complete?
You do! Once the site is finished, I hand over full ownership to you, along with a tutorial on how to manage it. With Squarespace, you’ll have control without needing a web admin. It’s designed to be user-friendly, so you can update and maintain your site with confidence.
