To set your Squarespace website live head to Settings > Site Availability and here you will have the option to select Public.
Selecting public will, you guessed it, make your Squarespace website public and accessible on the internet.
If you’ve already paid for your hosting, you’ll be able to toggle to public straight away. If you haven’t yet paid for your hosting, you’ll be prompted to do so in order to set your Squarespace website live.
Squarespace will give you the choice of hosting plans for your website, I recommend opting for a Business plan but it really depends on your own needs. Select your plan, add your payment details and once you’ve done that, you can set your website to publish.
