Why Isn’t My Squarespace Website Getting Traffic?

You’ve got a beautiful Squarespace website. Your messaging feels aligned. You’ve even had friends or peers compliment your brand. But still—your traffic numbers are low. Leads are slow. And you're left wondering if all the time and energy you spent building your site was worth it.

It’s frustrating. It makes you feel like you’re doing something wrong—like maybe you’re just not “good at marketing.” And that’s just plain wrong.

The real issue? Your site doesn’t have the steady stream of content it needs to show up consistently, bring people in, and keep them coming back.

Meet Your Traffic Guides: Annie & Jennifer Know This Road

We get it. We’ve been there.

Both of us—Annie Figenshu (Downstage Media) and Jennifer Barden (Jen-X Web Design)—are StoryBrand Certified Coaches and Squarespace Circle members. We’ve worked with dozens of businesses who’ve said the same thing: “I love my website. I just need more people to see it.”

We know what it feels like to second-guess your visibility strategy. And we know exactly how to fix it.

What Happens When You Leave Your Website to Fend for Itself

Because here’s the thing: traffic doesn’t magically happen. And a pretty homepage doesn’t get you found.

When you don’t have a long-form content strategy:

  • You keep scrambling for visibility

  • You rely too heavily on social media

  • You leave search engines with nothing new to index

  • You miss out on warm leads who are ready to work with you—but can’t find you

But when you do?

  • Your message spreads while you sleep

  • Clients find you because your content is working behind the scenes

  • Your website becomes your best salesperson, not just a static brochure

The Blog Strategy That Finally Gets Squarespace Sites Seen

That’s why Jennifer created Traffic Transformer—a course designed specifically to help Squarespace users build a blog that brings the right people to their website.

This isn’t about becoming a content machine. It’s about writing strategic posts that help your audience find you, trust you, and take the next step.



A Strategic Path to Visibility

1. Nail Your Messaging
Before you start creating content, your core message needs to be crystal clear. This makes every blog post more focused and effective.

2. Audit and Strengthen Your Website
Make sure your Squarespace site is set up to convert the traffic you’re about to earn—from layout to calls to action.

3. Create a Smart Content Plan
Build a strategic editorial calendar that balances SEO opportunities with what your audience actually wants to read.

4. Automate and Repurpose with Intention
Turn every blog post into a week of content—email, social, even short-form video. Set up simple systems so your efforts go further.

5. Commit to Consistent, Ongoing Content
Publishing regularly builds momentum and authority. It doesn’t have to be constant, but it does have to be sustainable.

What Your Website Really Needed All Along

If you want more traffic to your website, you don’t need a redesign—you need a smart, strategic blog that works while you work.

When Blogging Brings the Right People to You

Imagine checking your site analytics and seeing that people are finding you through blog posts you wrote months ago. Imagine hearing a new client say, “I read a few of your posts and I knew you were the one I wanted to work with.”

This is what happens when your content has a system.

Watch Your Website Start Working While You Sleep

You’re sitting at your desk. The same website you built with care is finally pulling in warm leads. You’re no longer scrambling for visibility—because your content is doing the heavy lifting. And it’s working.

You didn’t need to start over. You just needed a traffic strategy that fit.
