Setting up a domain name with Squarespace often involves more than just pasting in a code. Whether you're working with GoDaddy, Google Domains, Namecheap, Bluehost, or another registrar, you’ll need to correctly update DNS records (like A records, CNAMEs, and sometimes MX records)to point your domain to Squarespace and ensure everything works correctly.
For non-technical users, this can be confusing or overwhelming. One wrong change can result in your site not loading properly, error messages showing your site is insecure, or your email going offline.
That’s where we come in.
This Squarespace DNS setup service is designed for business owners, creatives, and website managers who want to skip the stress and get expert help. Whether you're launching a new site, transferring from another platform, or reconnecting a domain after a rebrand, we’ll handle all the technical steps to ensure your website goes live with no disruptions.
We regularly help clients who:
Tried to connect their domain but aren’t seeing their site go live
Accidentally broke their email by changing DNS settings
Are confused by the instructions from their domain provider or Squarespace
Want to avoid waiting on hold with support or dealing with technical jargon

Still unsure? Just reach out—we’re happy to confirm whether this service is right for your situation.
Frequently Asked Questions
I tried connecting my domain to Squarespace but it’s not working. Can you still help?
Yes! Whether you’ve partially set things up or something went wrong, we can take over and configure everything properly. We’ll review your DNS settings, correct any misconfigurations, and ensure your domain points to your Squarespace site as it should.
Will this service also fix issues with my email?
Absolutely! While our primary service is domain-to-Squarespace connection, we’ll make sure your email services (like Google Workspace, Outlook, or Zoho) continue to work by preserving or restoring the correct MX records during setup.
Which domain providers do you support?
We work with all major registrars, including:
GoDaddy
Google Domains
Namecheap
Bluehost
IONOS
Squarespace-acquired domains
...and more.
If your provider isn’t listed, feel free to check with us—we’ve probably worked with it before.
I bought my domain through Squarespace - do I still need this service?
If your domain was purchased directly through Squarespace and connected automatically, you likely don’t need manual DNS setup. However, if you’re transferring a domain, experiencing email issues, or need help making additional DNS changes (e.g., for third-party services), we can still assist.
How long does it take for my domain to go live after setup?
Once DNS settings are updated, most sites are live within a few hours. In rare cases, it can take up to 72 hours due to global DNS propagation—but we’ll notify you once everything is in place on our end.
What if I have multiple domains or want to connect a subdomain?
We can help with those too. If your setup involves multiple domain names, custom subdomains (e.g. blog.yoursite.com), or domain redirects, just let us know—we’ll quote accordingly or provide a bundle.
Is this a one-time fee or a subscription?
This is a one-time service fee. There are no hidden charges or ongoing subscriptions. Once we’ve completed the setup and confirmed your site is live, your job is done.
