Common Ground squarespace 7.1 Template

Say goodbye to politics as usual

Many political websites feel like they were designed by committee for committees. The Common Ground template is different. It's built around storytelling, authenticity, and making it easy for supporters to get involved. Because the best campaigns feel personal, not political.

  • Core Pages: Homepage / About / Blog / Contact

    Action pages: Event listings with RSVP functionality, volunteer signup, donation integration

    Vision showcase: Beautiful layout for your policy platform

    Mobile-optimised: Looks great on every device your voters use

    Bonus pages: Instagram links / Privacy policy / Cookie policy / 404

  • Candidates who want to show up as real people with real solutions. Whether you're running for city council, school board, or state office, the Common Ground template helps you tell your story in a way that actually resonates.

  • Squarespace account + subscription: A paid Squarespace Business plan once you’re ready to publish your site. By purchasing the template, a 20% discount will be automatically applied to your site subscription.

    Domain: You will need to purchase a domain via Squarepace or a third party platform. If you choose an annual Squarespace plan, you’ll receive a free domain for the first year!

  • Everything that matters! You can easily swap out all the text, images, and colours to match your campaign branding.

  • This template comes with a single-use license: one purchase, one website. You can't share it with other people, claim the design as your own, duplicate it for additional sites, or resell any part of it.

Your questions, answered

  • Squarespace is a website building platform that lets you create professional sites without coding or website design experience. You can drag and drop elements to build pages, add your own content, and customise the look and feel. It includes everything you need, such as hosting, mobile optimisation, built-in tools for blogging, online stores, appointment booking, email marketing, and analytics. Think of it as an all-in-one solution that handles the technical stuff so you can focus on your content.

  • A Squarespace template is a pre-designed website that's ready to customise with your own content. Think of it as a professionally designed foundation: the layout, structure, and styling are already done, so you just need to swap in your text, images, and colours to make it yours.

    While Squarespace includes basic templates with every account, our premium templates are designed to look custom-built and include strategically planned pages.

  • After you purchase a template, you'll receive an invitation to access your new Squarespace site within 48 hours. Once you accept the invitation, I'll transfer full ownership to you and remove my access.

    If you've purchased a package that includes customisation, I'll transfer the site to you after completing all the agreed-upon work.

  • The Do-It-Yourself

    Perfect for when you're starting out and want a standout website on a budget. You get your website template, 2 weeks of friendly email support to help you through any setup questions, plus 20% off your Squarespace subscription and an extended 6-month free trial to get you started without the immediate cost pressure.

    Your template will be delivered to your email within 2 business days of purchase.

    The Perfect Launch

    Perfect for the confident DIYer who wants to level up with an expert finish. You get everything from The DIY package, plus 2 weeks of friendly email support, 1 custom built page of your choice to make it truly yours, and a professional site review and polish to ensure everything looks seamless before you go live.

    Your site review and polish includes: A thorough walkthrough of your entire site to check for design consistency, mobile responsiveness, and user experience flow. I'll fine-tune spacing, alignment, and typography, test all your links and forms, and make sure your SEO basics are in place. Think of it as having a professional eye catch all the little details that elevate your site from good to great.

    You'll receive your template by email within 2 business days of purchase. I'll contact you at the same time to talk through your custom page and set up your site review and polish session, which you can schedule anytime in the next 6 months.

    The Done-For-You

    Perfect for when you need a website that wows with a custom touch but don't have time to handle the details yourself. You get everything from The DIY package, 2 hours of retainer support over 2 months for ongoing questions, 1 custom built page of your choice, and full content and branding integration so your site feels completely tailored to your you.

    I'll reach out within 2 business days to talk through your template customisation, collect your content, and confirm a project timeline. If you're working toward a particular launch date, please get in touch in advance to ensure there’s availability. 

    Your content should align well with the existing template layout and structure. While I can customise some sections to better fit your needs, the process works best when your content matches what's already built into the template.

    Before we begin, you'll need all your content ready β€” copy, photos, logos. After purchase, I'll send you a Notion document that follows the template outline, making it easy for you to slot your content into the right spots. Once you fill it out, I'll handle the rest and bring your site to life.

  • No problem! You can have multiple websites in your Squarespace account. Your new template will appear as a separate site alongside your existing one, so nothing gets overwritten or lost.

    If you want to move content from your old site to the new template, you'll need to copy it over manually. This gives you full control over what gets transferred and where it goes in your new design.

  • Your template includes an extended 6-month free trial, so you have plenty of time to customise everything before paying anything. When you're ready to go live, you'll need a Squarespace Business plan (or higher) and a domain name. Good news: if you choose an annual Squarespace plan, your first year's domain is free.

    Some templates include editable graphics that require Canva Pro to customise. If yours does, you can start with Canva's 30-day free trial so you don’t have to commit to the subscription.

  • Nope! All of our templates use DIY friendly features and you won’t need to know how to code to customise them.

  • Yes! Our templates are fully customisable, including fonts, colors, layout and images. The templates are designed to be your starting point, not your endpoint. Use the structure and layout as your foundation, then make it completely yours.

  • Absolutely! All templates are fully optimised for mobile devices and include a separate mobile editor. Everything automatically adjusts to look great on any screen size, but you also have full control to fine-tune the mobile experience.

  • Yes! Squarespace offers a built in e-commerce store function. You can add one to any template.

  • Of course, I’m always happy to help. The Do-It-Yourself and Perfect Launch packages come with 2 weeks of support, and the Done-For-You package includes 2 hours retainer support over 2 months.

    Squarespace additionally offers award winning live chat and email support.

  • All of our templates are for Squarespace 7.1 and use the latest Fluid Engine editor.

  • Each template purchase comes with a single-use license: one template, one website. If you need it for multiple projects or clients, you'll need to purchase a separate license for each site you want to create.

  • Due to the digital nature of our products, they are non-refundable. Please make sure you read all of the product details before purchase and reach out if you have any questions.
