Squarespace Web Designer — Toronto, ON
A Squarespace Web Designer Who Knows Toronto's Market
Toronto's service economy doesn't reward blending in. I build strategic, custom Squarespace websites for Toronto's service business owners — entrepreneurs who are done with DIY and ready for a website that finally matches their level.
Built for Toronto. Delivered From Coast to Coast.
I grew up in Toronto. I built my corporate career there — in banking, tech, and the energy sector — before leaving to run my own photography and design business. So when I say I understand what it takes to stand out in a competitive, fast-moving market, I mean it.
I'm Erin Clayton, a Squarespace web designer and strategic copywriter. I work with service businesses across Canada — and Toronto is a market I know well. The standards are high, the competition is sharp, and a generic template simply won't cut it when your potential clients are comparing you to some of the most polished service providers in the country.
Whether your clients are searching "Toronto wellness coach," or landing on your site from a referral, what they find when they get there determines whether they reach out — or quietly move on.
What You Can Expect:
❋ STRATEGY FORWARD DESIGN - I use my marketing background to ensure every page has a job to do. We don't just pick colours; we build a path that turns visitors into leads.
❋ THE WRITER ADVANTAGE - Most web design projects stall because the client has to write the text. I remove that bottleneck. I write the words on your website to articulate your value for you.
❋ TECH PEACE OF MIND - I handle the mobile optimization, SEO setup, and domain connections. You just provide the vision; I handle the heavy lifting.
Built for Toronto's Service Business Owners
This is for you if:
You're a consultant, coach, therapist, lawyer, financial advisor, or professional service provider serving Toronto or the GTA
Your current website is DIY, outdated, or simply doesn't reflect the calibre of work you're doing
You're operating at a high level but your online presence hasn't caught up yet
You want a site that brings in the right clients — not just one that checks a box
You're ready to hand this off to someone who handles the strategy, the writing, and the design
Toronto's market is competitive. Your website needs to do more than exist — it needs to work.

Hiring a web designer should be a relief, not another project on your to-do list. I bring a steady, strategic lens to every build, blending custom Squarespace design with the professional writing you need to reach your audience. My goal is to remove the technical friction and build a site that matches the high standard of your work.

Copy That Does the Selling For You
Writing about yourself is the hardest part of any website project — and the part most people stall on. I remove that bottleneck entirely. Through a strategic interview process, I extract your expertise and write the words on your website for you. Clear, confident, conversion-focused copy that sounds exactly like you — but better.
-
Design Built for Squarespace
I build exclusively on Squarespace because it gives you real independence. After your site launches, you can update your content, add a blog post, or change your pricing without calling anyone. You stay in control. No tech anxiety, no monthly retainer, no dependency.

Local SEO That Helps Victoria Clients Find You
A beautiful website that no one can find is just an expensive hobby. Every website I build for Victoria clients includes keyword research, location-specific SEO setup, and a site structure that gives you a real shot at ranking for the searches that matter — like "Victoria marriage counsellor," "massage therapist Victoria BC," and the niche-specific terms your ideal clients are actually typing.
