To connect a Squarespace domain to a Squarespace website, your domain must be parked and both the domain and website must be in the same Squarespace account.

Requirements

  • Domain must be parked (not linked to another website)
  • Domain and website must be in the same Squarespace account
  • You need admin rights to the website and domain manager access

Connect Your Domain

  1. Open your domain dashboard
  2. Click your domain
  3. Click Website
  4. Click Connect Existing Website
  5. Select the target website
  6. Click Continue and Confirm

Edit Domain Connection

  1. Open domain dashboard
  2. Click your domain
  3. Click Website
  4. Click Change Connection
  5. Select new website
  6. Click Continue and Confirm

Disconnect Domain

  1. Open domain dashboard
  2. Click your domain
  3. Click Website
  4. Click Change Connection
  5. Click Park This Domain
  6. Click Continue and Confirm

Important Notes

  • Billing and permission settings remain separate for connected domains
  • You can't connect a domain to a specific page (but you can redirect it)
  • To reconnect after using third-party services, remove all third-party entries and restore default Squarespace settings
  • Subdomains are treated as third-party domains and require DNS records for connection

If you lack access:

  • For website access: Request admin editor rights
  • For domain access: Request domain manager permissions

For shared billing and permissions, consider transferring the domain instead of connecting it.
