When does a multi-page site help?

Give visitors a distinct page when they have a distinct job. A studio can use a home page for its offer, a portfolio for examples and a contact page for enquiries. A blog is useful if you expect to keep adding articles.

Can you share a draft and check the form?

A Squarespace trial starts private. You can use a site-wide password to share the built-in address with someone you choose. Check where a form block stores its submissions before using it. The form’s confirmation and a saved response are two separate checks.

Most trial accounts do not receive form submission emails. Squarespace describes a Circle partner exception and alternate storage options such as a connected Google Drive account. A visible form or success message alone does not establish that you received the enquiry.

How would you check a portfolio enquiry on paper?

Draw a portfolio page and one enquiry form for a fictional client. Mark the page private in your sketch and keep the exercise offline.

Decide what to ask
Write the two fields you need to reply and one reason to contact you. Leave private project details out of the first enquiry.
Follow one response
Draw the confirmation and write which test destination should hold the response. List how you would check each independently.
Set the publishing checklist
Note who can see the draft, who owns the domain, and which form destination you would check before sharing a public link.

What should you check before choosing a plan?

Compare the website subscription for your market and billing term. Check the plan’s contributor limits and any fees that matter if you sell products or paid content. A trial lets you prepare the site, while public availability requires a paid site.

Which pieces can you export if you move?

Squarespace can export selected content in a WordPress XML file. It requires a published site set to Public and does not export from a trial. The export can include one selected blog, but it does not reproduce the whole design or every page type.

Keep copies of important text and images, a list of page addresses and a record of where forms send data. Check whether each needed item appears in the export and plan to rebuild anything the new host cannot import.
