Hi @SKG0369
"SEO by default" - Squarespace provides tools to allow you to set up SEO (titles and descriptions, meta descriptions etc) for your website. There is a list of things that can be done outside of Squarespace to optimise your website for search engines. That list depends on your needs, but I will share some basic steps.
What keywords are you using to search in Google and failing to see results? I can see that only your homepage is in Google's index. See screenshot. What you can do:
Submit your sitemap to Google Search Console. Although you probably already have, as your homepage is indexed. You could wait and do nothing, Google will eventually index all the pages in your website if possible. Request Google to index your web pages individually. This way you tell Google all the pages that you want to be in Google, rather than wait for Google to crawl your sitemap. Note, this will still take time, although potentially faster than just submitting a sitemap. Once your pages are indexed, check that you have optimised your pages for your keywords. Potentially more work on this, depending on your answer to bullet number one. Hope this helps.

Hi @SKG0369
I can help you with your current situation. Below, I've provided some potential insights that might be helpful:
It's common for newly published websites to take some time to appear in search queries. This delay is due to the indexing process that search engines like Google undertake. First, submit your sitemap on Google Search Console so that Google can discover your pages efficiently. Use the URL Inspection Tool to perform live tests for all the URLs and submit indexing requests while doing the live tests. It will help refresh the data in the search results and index the pages. Here are some resources to guide you through the process: URL Inspection Tool: https://youtu.be/Pe_-TkdbXN0 Google Search Console Guide (+ Tips & Tricks): https://youtu.be/WAjd9B7whgY?si=lqQFSaFU2LFw2jx You will find the full Squarespace SEO checklist here and If you prefer to receive personalized recommendations on your website, check out SEOSpace. I hope these insights are helpful. If you have any further questions. Please feel free to ask.
Thank you,
