How to Create a Squarespace Duplicate Website
Want to test changes, redesign your site, or create a backup without affecting your live website? Duplicating your Squarespace site is a simple and safe way to experiment.
Here’s how to do it in just a few steps:
1. Go to Your Dashboard
Start by logging into your Squarespace account.
From your dashboard, you’ll see a list of your websites.
2. Duplicate Your Website
Find the website you want to copy.
Click the three dots (•••) next to your site
Select Duplicate Website
Squarespace will automatically create a copy with all your pages, content, and design settings.
3. Rename Your Duplicate
Once the duplicate is created, give it a new name so you can easily tell the difference.
For example:
“Test Version”
“Website Redesign”
“Backup Copy”
4. Start Editing Safely
Now you can make changes to your duplicate site without affecting your live website.
This is perfect for:
Testing new layouts
Trying different fonts or colors
Redesigning your entire site
5. Save and Use When Ready
When you’re happy with your changes, you can:
Keep the duplicate as a backup
Or upgrade it and connect your domain to make it live
Final Tip
Duplicating your Squarespace site is one of the easiest ways to work safely behind the scenes.
Always duplicate your site before making big changes—it gives you full freedom to experiment without risk.
