Launching a website is a lot. This makes it manageable.
You’ve spent weeks building your site. The last thing you want is to go live and then discover a broken contact form, leftover placeholder text, or a domain that never connected.
This checklist breaks your launch into four clear phases, so you always know what to do next and nothing gets left for the last minute.
What’s inside
Phase 1: Build & Finalize.
Content, branding, and technical checks to make sure your site is truly finished, not just mostly finished.
Phase 2: Pre-Launch Setup.
Domain, SSL, privacy policy, SEO basics, and integrations, plus exactly where to find each setting in Squarespace.
Phase 3: Launch Day.
Your final run-through, going live, and how to announce your new site everywhere it matters.
Phase 4: Post-Launch.
What to do in your first week and first month to start bringing in traffic and inquiries.
Who it’s for
Service-based business owners launching a new Squarespace site, whether you built it yourself, customized a template, or just want a second set of eyes before you hit publish.
Go live with confidence. This step-by-step checklist walks you through everything to finish before, during, and after launching your Squarespace website, so nothing important slips through the cracks.
