Buy your dream domain

A domain name is the unique web address that helps people find your website, like yourwebsite.com. It serves as your online identity, making it easier for visitors to access your site without needing to remember a long string of numbers (IP address).

Domain name registration is the process of securing a unique web address for your website, ensuring that no one else can use it. This is done through a domain registrar like Squarespace, where you check domain name availability, choose your preferred name, and purchase it for a set period.

When choosing a domain registrar, look for a provider that offers transparent pricing, easy domain management, and reliable support. It’s also important to consider what else they offer, like website building tools, professional email, and security features. With Squarespace, you can buy your domain and manage everything from one place, with no hidden fees and seamless integration with your website.

No. Squarespace Domains do not require the purchase of a Squarespace website or any other Squarespace products or services.

Squarespace makes it easy to get professional email for your domain. You can purchase email addresses through our partnership with Google Workspace. If you already have an email provider, we can guide you through adding the necessary DNS records to your domain settings to make sure everything works smoothly. We also offer email forwarding as a feature with each domain.

Squarespace is a trusted registrar with hundreds of available TLDs and domain extensions for your website. You can find the full list on our Help Center.

Yes. Domain privacy is included for free with all domains registered through Squarespace. To learn more, visit our guide to WHOIS privacy.

Yes, Squarespace domains are protected with free SSL certificates to improve security. SSL ensures safe connections and prevents hackers from impersonating you or stealing visitors' information. We automatically renew your SSL certificate for your domain if your website is hosted with us.

Your domain name should reinforce your brand and be easy to find. If you have a business name already, try to use that as a guide, or use our Domain Name Generator to brainstorm ideas. In general, shorter domains with no numbers or hyphens are preferable. You can also consider purchasing multiple versions of your domain with any likely misspellings to help make sure customers find you.

Once you’ve registered your domain with Squarespace, it’ll be set to automatically renew to ensure you keep ownership (we’ll send you a reminder email 15 days before it does). We also recommend you help protect your brand identity by purchasing popular TLD variants. For example, once you’ve settled on your domain name and are ready to purchase a .com domain, also consider adding .net, and .org.

When choosing an annual Squarespace website plan, you can register your first domain through Squarespace free for its first year.

While your site is under construction, Squarespace provides a beautiful, simple holding page free of any ads. When you’re ready, our website builder makes it easy to launch your online presence with free web hosting, support, and storage included in your plan.
