Lose the template limits. Squarespace sites tend to look good from day one, which is why so many creatives and small businesses choose it. Owners who contact us usually want something the template will not do: a different page structure, a custom tool, or faster changes without working through the editor. We rebuild the site on Replit and keep the look and content you like.

Its help centre lists which content types are included, and notes that only one blog page exports, so sites with several blogs need extra work.[1] Squarespace notes that content cannot be exported from one Squarespace site and imported into another. Products have a separate import and export process.[2] We use the export file for blog posts and pages it covers, and collect remaining content and images from the published site. Images supplied by Squarespace or its partners may carry their own licence terms, so we confirm what you can reuse. ## Addresses, redirects and integrations - We list the current page addresses, including blog posts and any collection or category pages, before quoting. - Squarespace page and blog addresses are usually simple paths, so many can be kept exactly. - Where an address must change, we set up a permanent redirect from the old address once the domain points to the new site. - We check forms, booking widgets, maps, analytics and newsletter sign-ups, and agree which are rebuilt, replaced with an established external service, or retired. - After launch we check the redirects and submit the new sitemap. This protects the signals your existing pages have earned. ### Design rebuild or data migration? A design rebuild recreates the look, structure and content of your public pages on a new codebase. A direct data migration moves structured records, such as hundreds of blog posts or collection items, through a scripted import. Most small sites need a design rebuild with a manageable amount of content carried across. Large content libraries get a technical assessment first, so the quote is accurate. After the move ## Editing in plain language Industries that often move from Squarespace - [Creatives and portfolios](https://aidrivensites.com/industries/creatives-and-portfolios) - [Interior design studios](https://aidrivensites.com/industries/interior-design-studios) - [Cafes](https://aidrivensites.com/industries/cafes) **Will my site look the same?** It can look very close, and we usually refine it at the same time. The new site is built fresh, so the code is yours outright. **What happens to my Squarespace store?** We can rebuild it on the new site with a payment provider such as Stripe, connect an established store service, or keep the store on Squarespace and link to it. We quote the option that suits you. **Will my search rankings survive the move?** We protect your search standing by keeping important addresses, redirecting those that change, carrying over titles and descriptions, and checking the site after launch. **Can I keep my domain and email?** Yes. The domain stays registered to you. We point the website to the new host and leave email records alone unless you ask us to change them. If the domain is registered through your current builder, you can keep it there or transfer it; we explain both. ## Sources - [1] [Exporting your site](https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/206566687-Exporting-your-site) · Squarespace Help Center · Checked 2026-10-26 - [2] [Importing and exporting content](https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/205814028-Importing-and-exporting-content) · Squarespace Help Center · Checked 2026-10-26 ## Thinking of leaving Squarespace?
