Is there a lesson on transferring a domains from squarespace? I thought I saw it but can't remember where now.
Hi Linda,
You can transfer your domain or switch to another host (and keep your domain name on SquareSpace), these are two different things. You can also do both (transfer your domain name and host your site on WA). Moving your site here (WA) or switching your host is what you should do if you want to work your site on WA. Both procedures (domain transfer and switching host) are very similar for all hosting companies but you need to follow the specifics to yours, SquareSpace. The following post will help you in case you want to host your site here:

Any question, I suggest contacting SquareSpace.
Hope this helps,
Tom
Hi Tom,
I am just getting a understand of all this so I may not be saying it right. The first issue is that I have a domain name at sqaurespace and I want to move it to WA. I guess the second issue is whether the content can be transferred?
Domain name and hosting are two different things. Who host your site is the company where all your site files, not only your content, are. You should switch your host and transfer your domain if you want (it’s up to you).
Ok thanks for trying to help me. I guess I will trying to figure out how to ask this question.
No worries, you’re good and you’re welcome! The following post from Kyle will help you out: WA Hosting - Setting Up Your Domain DNS Moving your site (switching host) to WA would be a must, domain transfer would be optional.
Hope this helps,
Tom

How do you transfer a site from squarespace to wa?

As far as I am aware, Squarespace does not host WordPress websites and Wealthy Affiliate ONLY host WordPress websites. Moving the content of your Squarespace website to Wealthy Affiliate is not an option. Transfer a Domain Name, Move a Website
MarionBlack,
Thank you very much!!! This was very helpful. I was able to Transfer my Domain. Like you said, I am not able to move the content because they do not use WP but I will just have to re-create it here. It ok because I needed to start from scratch anyway and work on my branding for this site. Any info on branding is welcome. Thank you again. I feel smarter already.

For some of the more experienced members of WA, beside Kyle’s training, what are some of the best strategies for developing content?
You Find content by listening to what your audience is talking about and how to find out that info, you join forum in your niche, social media groups etc. Then you use Jaaxy to research the topic then write an article.
It may not really be a strategy, but I just write what I am thinking about. When I do research, I take notes and compile the best information into my own words for my site. Most of the time, I just write from my own experiences, though and that works for me.
Some people outline what they are going to write about, others just write. If you write like you talk, that is the best advice I can give to you. Not everything we write has to sound scholarly, but accurate. You want to reach an audience, so "speak" to the audience with your own voice.
Best wishes,
Karin :)

Hey Linda,
Your message to Kyle did not go to him in a private message. Instead you have shared it in the community.
Thought you would want to know rather than ignore your question.
Hope this helps you.
