10 AI prompts to plan your Squarespace site before you build a thing.
The hardest part of building a Squarespace site isn't the building — it's deciding what goes where. These plug-and-play AI prompts do the planning thinking for you. Click to copy. Paste into ChatGPT or Claude. Get unstuck in minutes.
Figure out what your site actually needs.
Before you build a single page, get clear on the structure. These prompts help you decide what pages you need, what order they go in, and what each one should accomplish.
Map out your full site structure
Use this when you're starting from scratch and don't know what pages your site needs.
Define what each page should accomplish
Use this when you have a page in mind but you're not sure what to put on it.
Find your brand voice
Use this when everything you write sounds like a stiff LinkedIn post or a corporate brochure.
Write the copy you've been avoiding.
"What do I even say?" is the most common reason Squarespace sites stay 80% finished forever. These prompts get the first draft out so you can edit, not stare.
Draft your homepage hero copy
Use this for the headline and subhead at the top of your homepage — the first thing visitors see.
Write your About page
Use this when you've been stuck on the About page for three weeks because every draft feels weird.
Write your services or product descriptions
Use this for service pages, product listings, or anywhere you're describing what you offer.
Write your email signup form copy
Use this when your "Sign up for my newsletter!" form is getting zero signups.
The details that separate "almost done" from "live."
Pages aren't enough. Your site needs SEO basics, a privacy policy, contact form questions that actually work, and the kind of small touches that make it feel finished. These prompts handle those.
Write SEO page titles and descriptions
Use this for every page on your site — they're the SEO fields Squarespace asks you to fill in.
Build your contact form questions
Use this so your contact form gathers the info you need to actually respond well.
Draft a starting-point privacy policy
Use this to get a usable draft you can review (and ideally have a lawyer glance at if you're collecting data).
You've planned it. Now build it.
