Squarespace SEO Tools

About the Work

At Squarespace, I've contributed to a suite of free SEO utility tools designed to attract organic traffic from users actively searching for help starting a business or building an online presence. These tools sit at the top of the acquisition funnel — reaching users before they've decided on a platform — and funnel them toward Squarespace's core product.

Business Name Generator

The Business Name Generator helps aspiring entrepreneurs brainstorm and validate business name ideas. I worked on building the tool and expanding its reach through vertical-specific landing pages.

  • Vertical Pages: Built targeted pages optimized for specific industries and business types (e.g., restaurant name generators, clothing brand name generators) to capture long-tail search traffic with high purchase intent.
  • SEO-Driven Architecture: Designed a scalable page structure that allows new verticals to be added quickly, each with unique metadata, copy, and keyword targeting.
  • User Experience: Ensured the core generator experience is fast and frictionless, keeping users engaged and reducing bounce rate.

Domain Name Generator

The Domain Name Generator helps users find available domain names for their new business or project. This tool is especially powerful as a gateway to Squarespace Domains — converting high-intent users at a natural moment in the business-starting journey.

  • Domain Availability Integration: Built the front-end experience around live domain availability lookups, giving users real-time results.
  • Cross-Sell Flow: Designed the tool to naturally guide users toward registering a domain and starting a Squarespace site in one cohesive flow.
  • Performance: Optimized for fast search interactions and smooth result rendering, even under high query volume.

Technical Highlights

  • Scalable SEO Page Templates: Built reusable templates that make launching new tool verticals fast, consistent, and low-maintenance.
  • Organic Traffic Growth: These tools are a key part of Squarespace's SEO strategy, reaching users with high commercial intent before they've entered a traditional marketing funnel.
  • Cross-Team Collaboration: Worked with SEO, product, and content teams to align on keyword strategy, UX patterns, and conversion goals.
