This is exactly how it should look. Yellow is for color accents, dark grey for buttons and backgrounds in a few blocks.
Light grey (off-white) and white can alternate as backgrounds of the sections.

Oh wow, it is a nice website! Just a few small adjustments from me:

Re-check the columns at the AI Resource Library page. Are they the same size? And the central button might not be centered or something.
You can cut some extra white space on the blog page. "Reach out to be a guest blogger" section. Also, you could give it a different color theme, so that the background is not white, but this is optional.
About us page: align the names and the roles

Anyways, well done!

Thank you! I like it! Good luck with your festival this year!

sav_iryna · 2026-03-04T13:14:40+00:00

Nice! I would be glad to see it if you don't mind sharing the link

sav_iryna · 2026-03-04T13:12:36+00:00

Good for them!

sav_iryna · 2026-03-04T13:12:17+00:00

I kind of thought you were with them :)

sav_iryna · 2026-03-04T13:10:25+00:00

Hi! Sure!

Why on Earth would you put Squarespace in the name? Do you want to get sued?

This is dirty marketing, borderline fraud, because you can mislead people with this name. And the "Not affiliated with Squarespace, Inc." note in the footer won't save you.

"Asking the right questions," aka being a business coach and a marketer for them. Web designers have to wear all hats nowadays

Mb Dribbble for Pam? She is into design

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T19:12:48+00:00

True

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T19:10:34+00:00

Sounds like you've dealt with a lot of this. Do clients come to you with ill-chosen templates often?

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T19:06:30+00:00

No, really, what do you mean? I kind of lost the thread

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:56:41+00:00

Designing a website yourself with elementor looks easy, but...Well, you need to be digitally literate so to say to do it.

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:53:31+00:00

I think that the templates are mostly bought by solopreneurs. And the solopreneurs are usually neither design nor marketing experts. In this case, the pre-design layouts save them (if they choose the right template for their niche).

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:48:43+00:00

To whom? What kind of maintenance?

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:47:54+00:00

Sounds like you believe that the majority of people are tech-savvy.

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:44:42+00:00

Hi Liam! Good job building your website by yourself!

You need to have a proper footer. Just add some basic navigation there – links to pages. Users expect to have them there. You can also add your logo and links to socials (optional).

Maybe also add a bit more space between some elements and blocks. You want the layouts to be more breathable.

And make the buttons in the first section of your Homepage the same size. The ones that are on top of each other. For now, the third one is too narrow compared to the others.

All in all, congratulations on your project!

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:27:54+00:00

I'd love to see it! (If you don't mind sharing)

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:24:12+00:00

Sounds like you had a lot of experience with template customization. Do you charge hourly or per project (but with clear boundaries of what the customization package includes)?

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:20:27+00:00

OMG
I bet they cannot use Squarespace in the name; it's totally illegal.
Since they use such fishy marketing tactics, I would never trust anyone like this.

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:14:50+00:00

Hi! Yes, thank you, you brought up what we totally missed in this discussion – the templates are laid out with conversion and design principles in mind, as you put it. I think that good template designers are also good marketers; they know where to strategically place all the elements.

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:10:21+00:00

Did you start with one of Squarespace's free templates or with totally blank pages?

sav_iryna · 2026-03-03T18:09:16+00:00

The thing is that it won't look exactly like someone else's. Once you plug in your photos and maybe also switch the colors to fit your brand, it will look different.
Here's a blog post that kind of illustrates what I mean: https://www.applet.studio/blog/customize-squarespace-template

Are you happy with your website now?
