The right domain can strengthen your brand and add credibility to your business. With over 350 million domains registered worldwide and roughly 10 million new domain registrations every quarter, it has never been more important for entrepreneurs to secure a domain and professional email address for their new idea. As a trusted ICANN-accredited Registrar, Squarespace makes it easy for anyone to claim a domain and professional email address, get started building an online presence, and transacting with your customers in one seamless experience.

“Securing a domain is often the first step of the entrepreneurial journey that makes your idea feel real,” said Paul Gubbay, Chief Product Officer at Squarespace “At Squarespace, we aim to make it as easy as possible for anyone to choose their ideal domain that reflects their brand and leverage the many tools available to engage with their customers, including sending emails to customers from the domain address."

Squarespace is evolving our domain and email offerings to provide our customers with even more powerful tools, including:
