Exporting from Squarespace

Can you export a Squarespace website?

Updated November 2026 · Christopher, Dreamtech

Only partly. Squarespace's built-in export creates a WordPress import file with some of your content, such as pages and blog posts, but not your design, layout or many block types. To get a site that looks the same, the live pages have to be copied, with their images and fonts, into files you own.

What Squarespace's export includes

A file in WordPress format, meant to be imported into WordPress.
Some content: basic pages, blog posts and some images.

What it leaves out

Your design: templates, colours, fonts and layout.
Many content blocks, plus product, event and member content.
A site you can put online as-is. You'd be rebuilding in WordPress.

How to get a full working copy

The reliable way is to copy what visitors already see:

Save a full backup of every public page, image and file first, so nothing can be lost.
Copy each page into plain HTML with its images and fonts saved locally, removing Squarespace's scripts.
Fix what the scripts used to do: fade-in effects, image loading, the mobile menu, galleries and forms.
Check the copy side by side with the original, on desktop and phone, before anything goes live.
Host it on free hosting such as Cloudflare Pages and keep the same page addresses, with redirects for any that change.

That's what Site Freedom walks your Claude through, step by step.

Free export tools vs. a full move

Several tools will turn a builder site into HTML files. That's the website part. You still need to move the domain, set up email on it, point everything at the new host, and cancel the right products in the right order. That's where most moves go wrong.

Let Claude do the move for you

Site Freedom guides your own Claude through the whole move: website to free hosting on Cloudflare, domain to Cloudflare at cost, and email to Zoho Mail or kept on Google. You sign in and approve; Claude does the clicking. Nothing is cancelled until everything has been checked.

$95 once. Needs the Claude desktop app on a paid plan (Pro or higher) with Claude in Chrome.

Questions

Does the export include my images?

The WordPress export doesn't give you a clean folder of your images. A full copy downloads every image from your live pages, at the original size.

Will fonts I picked in Squarespace still work?

Fonts bundled with Squarespace may stop loading once you cancel. They're checked during the move and replaced with a licensed or close free font if needed.

Can I do this without code?

Yes. With Site Freedom, your Claude does the copying and fixing. You approve the plan, the test site and the switch.
