This book is ideal for anyone who wants to learn how to use the latest version of Squarespace to create a website from scratch and take it through to go-live. You don't need any prior experience with Squarespace, HTML or CSS, or building websites in general as everything is done using Squarespace's simple, browser-based interface.
Sitting down with this book to work on my new website was like having a personal coach by my side. The tone of the book is encouraging, clear and engaging. I am a true beginner at website design. I would have been lost without this book. I tried for nearly a year to create my site on wordpress and felt like a failure. Now in just two weeks, I have created a website I am delighted with thanks to Building Business Websites with Squarespace 7 by Miko. The simple, step by step guides and screen shots make everything so clear, I heard my self say again and again, I can do that! And oh I get it. This book was a break through for me since it made me feel tech savvy instead of tech stupid. Thank you for this book!

This book can be a tremendous help if you are considering a Squarespace web site. It is probably best to read the entire book, or skim it, before building the site. It is easy to read and actually quite interesting. There may be nothing that can't be found by visiting the help in Squarespace itself, but this will provide a great starting point and helper at your side while you work. There are many chapters covering the process and they are indexed well enough to be able to find something in particular. Availability as a Kindle book makes finding what you are looking for that much easier. If you build your site and follow the steps set forth in the sequence of the book, it will be a great assistant.
