Logistics & Final Settings
In this lesson we are going to:
Go over final system settings in SquareSpace
Bring your website LIVE
Can this really be happening?
What a journey it has been. I'm sure you can feel it.
Things get very exciting when the time to go live is approaching. There are just a handful of final settings that need to be tended to. The settings and backend of SquareSpace are vast. I have narrowed down the primary settings that I recommend working through and will also mention a couple (analytics and commerce) that will be something to work your way into in time, once you have been open for business for awhile.
Don't get overwhelmed with every setting and option you see back there. They don't all apply to you, so you can work your way through what I cover, then get going!
