“When we approached Boxhall Marketing, our e-commerce website was brand new and we had zero rankings on Google. Since then, we have optimised our website in many ways and seen our rankings slowly grow for important keywords to our business.

Squarespace SEO RoadMap
Phase One: Analysis
I begin by conducting a thorough audit of your Squarespace site to assess its current SEO performance. This phase involves researching and identifying keywords that are most relevant to your business and audience. Additionally, analyse your competitors' SEO strategies to understand the market landscape. This phase is crucial for setting a strong foundation and clear, measurable SEO goals. Squarespace's user-friendly interface makes it easy to implement changes based on this analysis.
Phase tWO: On-Page Optimisation
We’re going to focus on optimising individual pages for search engines. This includes ensuring that all pages have SEO-friendly URLs, which Squarespace automatically generates. Optimise title tags, meta descriptions, and headers for your targeted keywords. Content is king, so ensure your site has keyword-rich, quality content that provides value to your audience. Also, optimise images with descriptive alt tags. Squarespace's built-in tools make these tasks straightforward, enhancing your site's visibility.
Phase Three: Technical
This phase involves improving the technical aspects of your website to boost its ranking. Work on enhancing the website's loading speed, a critical factor in SEO. Ensure your site is mobile-responsive, a necessity given the increasing mobile traffic. Squarespace templates are generally well-optimised for mobile, which aids in this aspect. Also, regularly check for and fix any broken links or site errors, which Squarespace's built-in analytics can help identify.
Phase FOUR: Content
Develop a robust content strategy that aligns with your audience's interests and search queries. Create and publish high-quality, engaging content regularly. Squarespace's blogging platform is particularly effective for this, offering a seamless way to add and manage content, which is vital for keeping your site dynamic and engaging for both users and search engines.
Phase Five: Links
Focus on building your site's authority through off-page SEO tactics. This includes acquiring high-quality backlinks from reputable sites, which significantly impact your site's search engine ranking. Engage in guest blogging, influencer collaborations, and leverage social media to enhance your online presence. Squarespace's social media integration makes it easier to share content and build a community around your brand.
Phase Six: Iterations
Regularly monitor your site's SEO performance using tools like Google Analytics and Squarespace's analytics. Track your rankings, organic traffic, and other key metrics. Use these insights to refine your SEO strategies continuously. Squarespace's analytics tools provide a user-friendly interface for tracking performance, making it easier to identify and focus on areas that need improvement

So it ensuring that it is secure, fast and responsive? There aren’t links to broken pages and is generally a pleasurable website to be on.
A lot of people over complicate Technical SEO, but what it really boils down to is the following:
Think of yourself as a Google Search Engineer - and ask yourself “What do you think makes a good website?”. Fast, secure, no dodgy loading - you can basically answer what Technical SEO is ultimately looking to achieve right there.

Once we have got a sound technical base for the site - a foundation that we can work from. It is time to start putting a strategy together that really ensures that you make the most of your Squarespace website.
It is one thing getting ‘traffic’ and ‘rankings’ - it is another thing completely to make sure that you get actual traffic and rankings that really make a different to your business.
Here that’s exactly what we plan for. Then once we have selected the right target keywords - we match that up with a specific page that grabs that users intent. This can then allow us to effectively “satisfy user search intent” the best.
But generally this just goes hand in hand with what you want to achieve as a business anyway, and Squarespace is a fantastic CMS to achieve just that.
