Skip the Tech Spiral
By now, you’ve picked a domain that’s simple and clear. The next move is buying it and connecting it to your site.
This is where a lot of people spin out, Googling DNS records, stressing about registrars, and getting lost in setup instructions that read like a foreign language.
Here’s the truth: buying and connecting a domain doesn’t have to be a tech headache.
Where to Buy a Domain
There are plenty of options out there, but you don’t need to overthink it:
Namecheap — Great prices, simple interface, and no extra fluff.
Google Domains (now under Squarespace) — Straightforward and easy to connect.
GoDaddy — Popular, but comes with a lot of upsells you don’t actually need.
And since we’re building on Squarespace, you can also buy your domain directly inside your account. If you do, it connects automatically, no messing with DNS settings or copy-pasting codes.
Already Own a Domain?
If you’ve already purchased a domain somewhere else, that’s fine too. Squarespace, WordPress, Kajabi, most modern platforms make it pretty painless to connect an existing domain. Usually, it’s just a few clicks and a quick copy-paste.
No need to transfer or start over. Just connect it and move forward.

The Big Point: Keep Moving
Here’s what matters: don’t let this step stall you. Whether you buy from Namecheap, Squarespace, or somewhere else, the result is the same, a domain that points people to your site.
That’s it. No gold medal for spending the most time on setup.
Closing Thought
Your domain is just a doorway. The goal is to get the door open, not spend weeks polishing the hinges.
So skip the tech spiral. Buy the domain, connect it, and keep building. Every minute you save here is energy you can put into creating content and serving your audience.
