Squarespace Post Development Course

Had a Squarespace site developed but don’t know how to manage it? This course is for you!

I work with a lot of small businesses that pay to get a site built that is unique to them but don’t want to continue to spend money on the updates so risk the site going stale! I created this course to ensure all my clients know how to manage their site post development from adding in new text and images to creating blog posts and keeping up to date with the best SEO practices (to keep them seen on Google searches!).

“The easy to use post development guide is a key part of her service which means we can tweak the site ourselves as we move forward. We will definitely be using her services again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.”
