How to Design a Website You LOVE in Less Than An Hour

Building a website can feel like a massive task, especially if you're starting from scratch. We’re excited to share our way to ditch that overwhelm, feel inspired by your website, and be excited to show it off!

Here are our tips on How to Design a Website You LOVE in Less Than an Hour:

Step 1 - Get Inspired by Websites You Love

Getting inspired by others is a great way to help streamline and fast-track your website design process!

In the art world, we call this "using a reference". From painters to musicians to graphic designers, folks from all disciplines often use this method to help keep themselves focused on their creative vision and get inspired.

When designing your website, consider finding a few examples of other websites that speak to you and incorporating elements of those designs that you love into your project.* This can be anything from colour schemes to fonts to menu design. Once you have a few ideas of what you like best, designing your website will likely be much more fun and simple.

*Important tip: Always remember to be conscious of your local copyright laws and respect the rights of those you admire. It’s okay to emulate - not imitate or plagiarize.

Step 2 - Use a Template!

One of the fantastic things about modern website design platforms like Squarespace is that nearly anyone can build a beautiful landing page for their business using pre-designed templates. 

Website Templates allow you to create a stunning website in a matter of minutes! Once you’ve installed the template, you can customize countless elements to fit your brand and vision perfectly. It’s an incredible time-saver that provides a beautiful starting point for your design and allows for a fraction of the effort needed to design it all yourself. 

The best part? If you love the design of your template, you don’t have to do anything but add your content and show it off to the world! That means you can spend all that extra time engaging with your clients and building your brand.
