What our Squarespace service covers.
From a blank canvas to a finished, search-ready site. Pick what you need, or tell us your goal and we will tell you which one fits.
New Squarespace Website Design

Squarespace Website Redesign
Your content is fine, the look is dated. We rebuild the design without losing the pages and rankings you already have.

Designer or developer: which do you need?
Squarespace Designer
Makes it look right. Layout and visual style, picking and styling templates, brand look and feel, page content placement.
Squarespace Developer
Makes it do more. Custom code and CSS, integrations and third-party tools, fixes beyond template limits, performance and technical SEO.
When you hire a Squarespace expert who does both, you stop stitching together two freelancers and one of them blaming the other. We do both, under one roof.

The Rank-Ready Groundwork most designers skip.
A beautiful site that nobody finds is an expensive brochure. Every site we build runs through the same six-point groundwork before launch.
Clean structure and headings
A clear page outline so Google understands what each page is about.
Titles and meta written to be clicked
Not just filled in to turn a field green.
Speed and Core Web Vitals
Right-sized images and fast loads, because slow sites lose rankings and visitors.
Hand-written schema markup
JSON-LD added by hand so your pages can earn rich results in search.
Internal link plan
A clear structure that spreads ranking strength across your site.
Local SEO setup
So nearby customers find you before the big directories do.
Recent Squarespace builds and what they solved.
We do not just fill in templates. Here is how we have solved real technical and SEO challenges for recent clients.
Healthcare · Local SEO
Generative Engine Optimization
The challenge
A psychiatry practice needed a fast, professional site optimized for local and telehealth search, built to meet medical-compliance expectations.
What we did
Deep local and telehealth keyword research, hand-written FAQPage and Physician schema via JSON-LD, structured condition pages, and a dynamic team directory branching into individual provider profiles, plus a sticky footer with crisis lifelines, accepted insurance plans, and telehealth licensing disclaimers.

Education · Migration
Junior Mind Masters — gated content platform
The challenge
Migrate an educational platform to Squarespace while building a content strategy with pillar-based blog categories and a newsletter-gated PDF resource system.
What we did
Migrated the full site to Squarespace 7.1 with all pages and rankings preserved, built a session-based gated-content system delivering PDFs through an automated welcome sequence, and engineered responsive custom code blocks the client can manage without breaking the mobile layout.

How working with us goes.
1
Free consultation
We talk through what you have and what you want. You get a flat quote and a realistic timeline, no obligation. Day 1–2.
2
Design and build
We build on a private staging version your customers cannot see, and you review it as it takes shape.
3
SEO and polish
Before launch we handle the structure, speed, and schema that get the site found, then tidy every detail.
4
Launch and support
We take the site live, confirm everything works, and stay reachable afterward. You are not left alone with it.
What you provide, and what you walk away owning.
What we need from you
Your logo and any brand colors or fonts · Text and images for your pages, or a clear brief so we can draft them · Access to your current site or domain at launch · Timely feedback at each review round.
What you own at the end
The Squarespace account and site, registered in your name · Full editing access with clean modular blocks · All content, code, and schema we created · No retainer lock-in — care plans are optional.
Optional, after launch
Squarespace website maintenance and care plans
Some clients want to run the site themselves, and our clean build makes that easy. Others would rather hand it off. Our care plans cover content updates, new sections and pages, speed and uptime checks, schema upkeep, and ongoing SEO monitoring in Search Console, so the site keeps earning instead of drifting.
Care plans are month to month with no long contract. Tell us how hands-on you want to be and we will scope it to fit. Already have a site and want to rank in your niche? See our Squarespace SEO services.
- Content and page updates
- Speed and Core Web Vitals checks
- Schema and technical SEO upkeep
- Monthly Search Console monitoring

Squarespace builds for the work you do.
Skip The Middleman
Why hire us as your Squarespace developer.
For years we did this work quietly for other agencies. Now we work directly with business owners, which means you skip the middleman, the markup, and the guesswork.
No outsourcing
The person who quotes your project is the person who builds it.
SEO comes first
We build to rank, not just to look good in a portfolio.
Straight answers
If something will not work or is not worth the money, we say so before you spend it.
You own everything
Your site, your account, your content, with no retainer lock-in.
Who You Work With
No account managers, no handoff to a junior.

Founder & Lead Developer, HOU Digital Marketing, LLC
Mukesh has spent more than fifteen years building and ranking websites. For most of that time he did the work quietly behind the scenes for other agencies, the same agencies that charge a premium and outsource the build. He founded HOU Digital Marketing to cut out that middle layer, so business owners work directly with the developer at a fair flat price.
His focus is the overlap most studios miss: a site that looks the part and is engineered to rank, with the technical SEO, schema, and clean structure done by hand on every project.

The work happens online from start to finish, so wherever you are in Texas, the process and the results are the same.
Squarespace, answered honestly.
What is the difference between a Squarespace developer and a Squarespace designer?
A designer makes your site look right. A developer makes it do more, with custom code, integrations, and fixes that go past what the templates allow. We do both, so you get a site that looks the part and works the way you need it to.
How much does it cost to hire a Squarespace developer?
Our packages start at $800 for a Lite site, $1,400 for a Medium site with a blog and advanced SEO, and $1,800 for a full redesign with migration. These are flat starting prices, not hourly bills, and we confirm the exact quote after a free review.
How long does a Squarespace website take to build?
A Lite site usually takes one to two weeks, a Medium site two to four weeks, and a redesign with migration three to five weeks. Timelines depend on how quickly content and feedback come back from you, and we agree on the schedule before any work starts.
Can you move my WordPress or Wix site to Squarespace without losing my Google rankings?
Yes. We map every old URL to its new Squarespace page and add 301 redirects so Google passes your existing search authority to the new site, then we monitor Search Console after launch to catch anything that slips.
Can you fix or finish a Squarespace site someone else started?
Yes. A lot of our work is rescuing half-built or broken Squarespace sites. Send us the site and tell us what is wrong, and we will tell you honestly what it needs and what it will cost.
Do you build on Squarespace 7.0 or 7.1?
We build exclusively on Squarespace 7.1 using the Fluid Engine editor. This keeps your site fully responsive, faster, and far easier for you to edit yourself after launch.
Will I own my Squarespace site and be able to edit it myself?
Yes. The site is registered in your name and you own every part of it. We build with clean structure and modular code blocks so you can change text, swap images, and publish blog posts without breaking the layout.
Where in Texas do you work?
We are a Texas-registered studio working with clients across the state and beyond. Squarespace work happens online from start to finish, so location does not change the process or the result.
Will my Squarespace site show up on Google?
That is the part most designers skip and the part we lead with. Clean structure, proper titles and descriptions, fast load times, hand-written schema, and a clear internal link plan. We are an SEO agency first.
Not sure which package or platform fits?
Send us your current site and your goal. We will tell you honestly what it needs, what it will cost, and how long it will take, with no obligation.
