What Do I Need to Bring to the Party?
A Domain Name, AKA Web Address or URL. If you don’t have one, you can purchase it through Squarespace after your demo website has been installed.
A Squarespace Hosting Subscription for your new website (Wait to buy this until after your demo is installed, and you will save 20% off your first year!)
Your very own writing, photos, graphics, logo, and story to replace the demo content.
The Artisan Template lets you tell your story in the most impactful way possible.

Frequently Asked Template Questions
-
Nope. Not at all. In Squarespace, you won’t need to do anything more advanced than click, drag-and-drop, or write. And we will show you exactly what you need to do!

Here are all the nitty-gritty details:
1. After you buy a mini Monster template, you will receive a contributor invitation email from Squarespace with a link to go to your demo site, and info on how to open a Squarespace account, if you don’t already have one.
2. With all of our video and written tutorials, you replace the demo copy, photos, images, and logos with your own, and change the fonts and colors on the template.
3. Pick a hosting plan through Squarespace and payment processor plan (if your website needs one).
4. Point your web address to your new site (or get a web address through Squarespace).
4a. Drink some bubbly and celebrate. You just built and launched your own website!
-
We asked all of our users this question, and their answers ranged from “one long weekend” to “a couple of weeks.” They also reminded us that the huge advantage in creating your own site is that you can add and edit things whenever you like! So, you can publish your website whenever you feel comfortable, and keep adding to it.
