About Marian Erikson

SQUARESPACE WEB DESIGNER

As a Squarespace expert who’s customer-service focused, I’m here to make your website-building process fun and stress-free. I love developing websites for small business owners. A professional website makes such a positive impact on your business and your life!

I’ve been creating and maintaining websites since 2017. I began donating my services and building websites for non-profits I was involved with. I then built websites for my voiceover business, for my husband’s consulting business, for my podcast, for a friend’s short term vacation rental business, and on and on. I loved doing it! I had invested in training to master web design principles and SEO strategies and immersed myself in designer communities. I continued learning and loving web design, and was doing all this “for fun” until it finally dawned on me that I could be doing it for a living.

Doing something I love. Helping people. Being creative. What could be better?

Need a New Website, a Redesign, or some Ad-Hoc Updates?

Whether you need a new website, or a refreshed site if yours is a few years old, I’d love to help. I’ll listen to your needs and goals, partner with you, create a plan, and build you a beautiful and effective custom website.

You can easily maintain it on your own with the training and documentation I provide.

Prefer to remain hands-off? I’m happy to provide support, updates, analytics, and maintenance whenever you need it.

Moving From Wordpress to Squarespace?

Many people are moving from Wordpress or other website hosts to Squarespace because of Squarespace’s features and ease of use.

I’ll evaluate your current site, make design/SEO recommendations to improve it, and transfer your site to Squarespace.

Why Do I Love Squarespace?

I have experience building websites in Wix, Lodgify, and Squarespace.

They each have their strengths, but Squarespace is my love.

It’s a fully-managed cloud-hosted environment, always available, always responsive, and their customer service is fantastic.

Best of all, it’s extremely user-friendly and easy to maintain - especially with the training and documentation I provide!

You Might Wonder…
“If Squarespace is so Easy, Why Do I Need a Designer?”

Not everyone does. I, for example, found that I LOVED dabbling in website building before I had any training or expertise. That’s not everyone’s cup of tea though.

And while Squarespace is easy to use, where people get caught up is on website DESIGN and SEO best practices. Squarespace is easy to work with, but it’s also easy to mess things up!

What I Bring to the Table…

I’ll build your website with design best practices and on-page SEO in mind. It will be simple for users to navigate and simple for Google to understand who you are and what you offer.

A Few More Things About Me

I’m a Squarespace Circle Member

As a professional Squarespace expert I’m part of a community other Squarespace designers who enjoy benefits including access to exclusive content, early product release information, and optimized customer support. I also receive discounts I pass along to you including a 20% discount off your first year’s website subscription, and discounts off 3rd party tools and integrations.

Besides Creating Amazing Websites…

… and bringing people’s online presence to life, I love podcasting. I have a 10-minute daily plant-based podcast where I narrate some of the best content created by experts, with their permission. I used to be a full-time Voiceover artist before falling in love with web design, so it was a natural fit to jump into podcasting. I still have a few long-time Voiceover clients I service… it’s fun doing 30-second radio commercials here and there, or recording voiceovers for telephone answering systems.

When I’m not working on the above, I’m enjoying time with my husband and two daughters, our rescue kitty and dogs, or friends on the pickleball courts.
