Preface

Squarespace is an incredible tool designed for users of all technical proficiencies. The objective of Squarespace from Signup to Launch is to teach you how to build websites with the technical knowledge of a developer, along with project organization skills and design intuition.

While there are other books on Squarespace, Squarespace from Signup to Launch focuses specifically on the latest versions of the platform, 7.1 and Fluid Engine. This book provides a comprehensive guide to building a website on the Squarespace platform, encompassing not only the technical steps required for any website creation but also a broader perspective.

As a web designer and agency owner, I am excited to provide you with exclusive access to the resources utilized by actual Squarespace experts. I have gathered insights from professionals who work with the Squarespace platform on a daily basis. Each chapter includes valuable perspectives gained from interviews with designers, developers, marketing specialists, and search engine optimization experts. This way, you can truly learn from the best in the field.
