By Impran M N
Centralizing your domain and website under Squarespace simplifies management and removes the need for a separate registrar dashboard. This guide covers connecting a GoDaddy domain to your Squarespace site, from the GoDaddy side through to confirming the connection in Squarespace.
01Log in to Squarespace
Sign in to your account, or create one if you're new, so you have a site ready to connect the domain to.
02Start the transfer in GoDaddy
In GoDaddy, click Domains, select Transfer Domains, and enter the domain you want to move over.
03Connect the domain to your site
In My Products, find the domain, click Manage, and use the connect option to forward domain traffic to your Squarespace site.
04Finish the connection in Squarespace
In Squarespace, go to Settings, then Domains, choose Connect Third Party Domain, enter your domain, select GoDaddy, and click Connect.
05Manage domain settings in Squarespace
Under Settings, Domains, you can register and manage domains with Squarespace or continue managing third-party domains like this one.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to fully transfer the domain, or can I just connect it?
Squarespace supports connecting a third-party domain from GoDaddy without a full registrar transfer, which is the quicker route shown in this guide.
Why would I move a domain from GoDaddy to Squarespace?
Registering and managing your domain through Squarespace centralizes your website and domain settings instead of juggling two providers.
What if I run into an issue during the transfer?
Contact GoDaddy Support by phone, text, or chat for help resolving technical problems on their end.
Do I need to already own a domain to use this process?
Yes, this guide covers connecting a domain you already registered with GoDaddy — you can search for a new domain separately if needed.
