Building a Website using Squarespace

Please note: this event is run by the Small Business Development Corporation for small business owners in Western Australia only.

A website is one of the best ways for your clients or customers to learn more about your business, your brand and the types of products or services you offer.

Under the guidance of a Squarespace Authorised Trainer, this full day interactive workshop will teach you how to build a simple website in Squarespace including the basics of website design, adding and editing pages, connecting your social media accounts, adding brand fonts, colours and styles to your site, and checking mobile compatibility.

For this workshop you will need to do the following:

• Bring a laptop and ensure you have a good WiFi connection. You will not be able to build your website on a phone or tablet.
• Start a Squarespace account using any template

This topic covers:

• How to use Squarespace to build a website
• Design and layout of your new homepage
• Scheduling, ecommerce and membership features within Squarespace
• Adding your own brand style, fonts and colours to your Squarespace website. 

This workshop is suitable for business owners looking to build and maintain their own website.

The facilitator of this topic, Business One Stop Shop (BOSS) is dedicated to helping small business owners thrive through expert advice, hands-on workshops and building a community of like-minded people.
