3 No-Code Design Tricks to Improve Your Squarespace Website

Not everyone is a Squarespace website designer, and not everyone knows how to code. That is the beauty of Squarespace, you can create something truly amazing with little to no code. In this tutorial I will be showing you how to enhance your Squarespace website with just 3 simple elements.

Check Out The YouTube Version

I have created a video version of this tutorial on my Squarespace design YouTube channel. Check it out for a more visual look at this topic.

1. Add a Scrolling Marquee Block

This is a fantastic way to show off some of your past projects, testimonials, or even allow your audience to see the brains behind the operation with a “meet the team” section. All are made available through this Squarespace built in feature.

  • Use wave effects

  • Change direction

  • Pause on hover

2. Use Animations

This is super simple and is made available with the Squarespace built-in functions. Simply:

Navigate to Site Styles → Miscellaneous → Animations

  • Choose from scale, fade, or slide effects

  • Select save and these changes will be made site wide.

3. Add Animated Backgrounds

  • Navigate to section background → Select Art

  • Choose from a number of different artistic, animated backgrounds

  • Adjust colors to your liking.
