I would use the subscription to move my wives blog from wordpress.com to squarespace and show her the light :). She currently hits around 300+ pageviews/day and counting, now one year in to her blogging she is looking to step it up and move in more customizable setup.

It’s been a long time since I started looking for the right place to move all my web personalities: my portfolio, my successful food-blog, my photo site, etc. and Squarespace was already in my shortlist. Maybe this is my chance to finally try it (and a whole year is a quite reasonable amount of time to test it effectively). Thanks for the opportunity.

If I won I would use the squarespace subscription to show the school that I work at that content management systems aren’t all outdated, slow and difficult to use, in the hope that they might switch to something as professional as squarespace, making the management of their site (performed by me) a simpler and pain-free task. One can dream…

How would I use a subscription to Squarespace?
Easy answer: Firs of all I will create a cool webpage for me, and help a couple of friends to improve their own.

Upon winning a free Squarespace subscription, I would immediately hop into action and build a website for the launch of my new freelance business, Bella Vita Creative. My first love is graphic design, but I took a detour into the world of high school teaching after I was diagnosed with breast cancer three years ago. I loved being in the classroom, but was promptly “RIFed” (laid off) after my first year of teaching due to state-wide education cuts. Three months of unemployment was enough to make me realize that I don’t want to leave my destiny in the hands of some (possibly) non-existent employer who may never call. With the encouragement and support of fellow designers and friends, I decided to re-launch and re-vamp my freelance business, this time with a more unique selling point. I’m excited and anxious to see what new adventures lie ahead. A Squarespace-designed website will go a long way toward helping me get my life and business on track. I can’t wait!

Thanks for considering me!

How would you use your Squarespace subscription if you won?
I would create an portfolio site for my art. Art is meant to communicate, teach, motivate, and inspired, but it can do none of those things if it isn’t shared.

I would use the subscription to launch a new yoga site to build greater cohesion among the community world wide–with a very different approach from existing yoga sites.
Ky
October 11th, 2011
It would be my first website ever.
Currently I am in need for a website because I am close to releasing an iOS app. So I need a website that is beautiful, professional and easy to build.
I also need the blogging capabilities to be able to post up news about the product. The fact that it has an iPad app attracts me greatly because that means I will be able to update my blog from on the go.
Lastly. I am also an artist. And even tho I do artwork as a hobby it would be great to create a portfolio of my best work. Who knows when that might bring me a job in the future, huh?

Amanda Moore
October 12th, 2011
I’d use it for a local Lions car racing club that I currently run as it would allow the board members to be able to post updates directly to the site, such as a Presidents blog, rather than all postings going directly through me. It would also allow for more community interaction than currently is built in to the website.

I always wanted a site of my own without any complications or difficulties, With Squarespace Website Builder I believe I can easily create a site of my own.
The features of cloud hosting, 24/7 website monitoring, ability to tweak the different web design template according my preferred style and easy to use GUI based web page editor sounds like a promising and creative prospect.
Having a neat and clear blog will definitely fulfill my dream of sharing and learning from others all over the world.

I would use squarespace to put up a minimum viable product for a baby boomer ecommerce idea I’m currently testing. Using a well-designed squarespace site, I could further test, iterate, test, iterate, test, iterate….gathering learnings to develop a more complex ecommerce and content platform. Squarespace is a great way for business savvy (but technically challenged) entrepreneurs to test an MVP idea before investing in tech resources.

This is nice, I wonder who would won? and its worth $240 a year! wow! I’m not sure if I can still continue to afford it even if I win. :) This must be a very reliable hosting site! I guess when I win, I would host an art submission site where artist can submit and share their own graphics artwork. I trust that Squarespace can handle heavy traffics. and Yeah I must have a lot of traffic to be able to continue with Squarespace subscription should the one year plan expire.
I must have a lot of visitors in my graphic site and I must have a lot of ads. This is nice. :)
I hope I would win. :)

How would you use your Squarespace subscription if you won?
I’ve been doing something called the Penitence Project for the last couple of years. Basically, I pick a kid in need, and then campaign to fundraise and etc. to help him/her and the family with the kid’s needs. So far, I’ve just been doing it on Facebook and my junky free hosted GoDaddy site, but this would open the opportunity to really make it look pro, and thusly draw in some bigger donators. Maybe then, I can make it an ongoing project that helps kids all year round instead of just once a year.
I have a passion for helping kids, and realize the potential that the internet affords for anonymous donations to assist people. I think the ease and sleek design of SquareSpace would really take things to a new level for this project, and could open up new opportunities to assist more kids.

I am a 14 year old Website/Graphic designer living near London in the united kingdom. With myself being at school a lot of the day and designing at the weekends and after school (I get back at 7 o’clock!) it is difficult to build pixel perfect sites and graphics. Ive used a square space trial before and find it very simple to create effective and modern designs therefore I would use my square space subscription to build up my online portfolio which is taking me a long time to develop as I can never seem to build a site and stick with it and to build higher quality websites for my clients.

Two words: Curated aggregation. Being a bit of a must-have-beta-invite and a “wait, what does that do?”, inquisitive techie/designer hybrid freak, I have spread myself very think across so many platforms. I would use Squarespace as a place to bring it all together; the photography, travel blogs, volunteer blogs, fundraising projects, inspiration, bookmarks…a place of all things I call “@jamielynn”.
I would also make it vehemently clear that I am not Jamie Lynn Spears and for Pauly D to stop blowing up my Twitter account as he thinks I am the little sis. Thanks for that.

A win here would give me the needed platform to launch my web development freelancing business and generate much needed income as I recently lost my job as well as free me from office work hours so I can spend more time with my kids when I have them.
A win here would allow me to concentrate on the task at hand instead of having to worry about what is really going on behind the scenes like I have had to do in the past with other hosts.
A win here would be just what I needed.
