Services by Progress Akande
Squarespace website design creates or rebuilds an editable site with clear content, coherent styling and a usable booking or inquiry path. Progress Akande works with Squarespace, Squarespace Domains and Acuity Scheduling for consultants, coaches and service businesses whose current pages need stronger presentation, mobile fixes and a structure they can maintain themselves.

The scope
An outdated site may still contain useful explanations, familiar URLs and a recognizable identity. I assess those assets before replacing them. We review which pages visitors need and which material can be consolidated. The new structure should make the site easier to navigate without treating every existing decision as a mistake.
For a new Squarespace build, the same content-first approach applies. Your services, proof and contact path need to be defined before styling begins. We agree what you will supply and where copy direction is required. This prevents a polished layout from becoming a collection of empty sections waiting for information that has not been gathered.
Distinctive typography, considered spacing and well-chosen images can create a premium experience without making the owner afraid to edit a page. I tailor styling to the approved brand while keeping the content structure understandable. Any custom work is discussed in terms of what it changes and how it should be maintained.
The phone layout is reviewed independently of the desktop view. Stacked sections need a sensible reading order, headings must remain legible and buttons should not compete for attention. Mobile fixes can address image framing, awkward breaks and excessive empty space. Animation is restrained so essential content remains accessible and the site feels deliberate rather than distracting.
Squarespace SEO settings deserve page-by-page attention. Titles and descriptions should summarize the actual content, while headings help a reader understand the hierarchy. Image descriptions are written for the image’s purpose. A site rebuild also needs an inventory of existing URLs so changes do not casually strand links people already use.
Domain and email setup are reviewed carefully because website changes should not interrupt business mail. Squarespace Domains may manage the domain, but the existing DNS and email arrangement must be understood first. Authentication records belong to the correct sending service. I coordinate the required settings with your account access and avoid claiming that a website subscription automatically solves every email requirement.
Acuity Scheduling can support an appointment path when it fits the business’s requirements. We define appointment types, availability and the information needed before a call. The visitor should understand what they are booking and what happens afterward. Forms are kept focused, with notifications tested rather than assumed to be working because a field appears on the page.
Handover includes the routine tasks you are likely to perform: editing text, changing images and updating page details. Client accounts stay under your ownership and project access is returned at handover. New builds, rebuilds and targeted fixes have different scopes, so each project is quoted before work starts with its own timeline and content requirements. The goal is a site that feels refined and remains usable after the design work is complete.
The Growth Engine
I review the current Squarespace site or the brief for a new one. We separate missing content, styling problems and booking friction so the rebuild addresses the actual weaknesses.
We define your offer hierarchy and the visual character the site should communicate. Existing material is assessed for usefulness rather than discarded simply because it is old.
I build the agreed layouts, customize styling and review mobile behavior page by page. You approve the content and presentation with room for practical feedback.
Scheduling, forms and notifications are tested against the intended customer journey. The handover shows you how to make routine edits without undoing the design decisions.
