The last thing I want to cover is your domain. Click on Domains and Email, then click Domains. Right now, your site uses a domain that Squarespace randomly generated for you.

You can edit this by clicking on it and writing your own domain name here. Keep in mind that this will still end in squarespace.com because this is the free domain that comes with your Squarespace plan. You can, however, purchase your own domain so that you don't have to include Squarespace in the URL, and instead it can just be your own site name.com. To do this, go back to domains, and then click get a domain. you can use this bar to search the name of the domain you want.

Squarespace will tell you if it's available and how much it costs. it will then guide you through the steps to secure the domain.
