So you're up to your eyeballs in work, your calendar is packed and you know if you continue on like this for much longer, you're gonna hit burnout and loose your passion for your business?

I had it in my mind for a few months that I wanted to change my sites domain name but was nervous about what it would mean for my SEO and all the traffic that was going to my website from Google.

Let’s be real, SEO can be a scary thing for the small business owners and creative entrepreneurs of the world.

You know it’s important, but you literally don’t have a clue of where to start and are having nightmares of code and technical programs.

If you're looking to get help with your Squarespace site you might have noticed a few badges on designers sites stating they're either a Squarespace Circle member, a Squarespace Authorized Trainer or both.

If you're sitting there scratching your head wondering what the heck either of these are and what exactly they mean, I'm here to clarify that for you today!

Last year it's safe to say I had went pretty hard in the work department and slacked on the whole 'living' thing.

My boyfriend was also going through one of the hardest years of his job training, so our time spent together was mostly just sitting at our desks in our office.

I wrote quite a while back about what I'm individually up to behind the scenes of my business but things have changed a bit since then, and I definitely feel that I'm more productive and efficient these days, so it's time for a new post!

So you've just finished up with your 5th WordPress technical meltdown and headache this month and are so over crying into your keyboard when trying to create the vision you have in your mind on a site?

Wanna know what the most searched thing in my blogs search bar is? SEO.

I know y'all want me to talk about Squarespace SEO on this blog and I've honestly tried bringing myself to do so on manyyyy occasions, but I admit, writing about SEO bores me to tears, so I just never write the posts. 😂

Hey, hey new Squarespacer!

Or let's be real, current WordPress user who is totes fed up with the WordPress headaches and is currently researching Squarespace because you hear whisperings that it's wayyyy easier to use.

So you're looking to add an option for site visitors to schedule a booking consultation call with you?! 

Fabulous idea. I can tell you from experience that offering these calls with make a big time difference to how many clients you're able to land. So first, job well done on even taking the time to set this up.

If you're reading this post, then you know the importance of building your email list, and because of that I am SO proud of you!

You friend aren't getting all glossy-eyed over a follower count but are instead ready to put time and energy into a less-glamorous, but significantly more rewarding and vital piece of your business - your email list!

So you may have heard of the hack out there about how to create a section of rotating testimonials with the Squarespace summary block. If you're unfamiliar, I teach you how to do it in this post.

Less than impressed with the number of booking inquiries you're getting? Your website should be your best marketing employee, working for you 24/7, but if it's not pulling it's weight these days and bringing in the clients you want, here's a few things we can fix to get you to where you want to be  - booked out!

Which block do I use most in all of my site designs?

Whichever block you're thinking of, I can almost guarantee that it's not the one. 

The most useful block in Squarespace? The spacer block.

I know I love to see the behind the scenes of how other online business owners organize all the things in their business, so today I'm going to share a little bit of how I do things.

Specifically, I'm going to show you into my Asana.

'How do you get clients?' It's the #1 question new Squarespace web designers ask me.

Now that I've launched a course too, I expect I'll start getting 'how do you get students to buy your course?' questions coming my way soon as well.

Y'all, today I'm going to share something I think you really need to hear.

I know it can be tough living in the 'real world' while working in a 9-5 but harbouring dreams of something completely different.

Working online while traveling the world, it’s a dream for many and good ol’ Instagram does a wonderful job of plastering our feeds with people who have managed to make the dream come to life.

(Or is that just my feed? I dunno.)

I'm back with another edition of monthly recaps, the posts where I take you behind the scenes of the business, and show you what I've been scheming up, as well as the successes and the failures (*ahem - lessons learned*).
