You’re a creator or educator, and you need a website that helps you look the part.

You teach, inspire, and create for a living. But your site? It’s not pulling its weight. If you're like most creators and educators we work with, you’re probably stuck with:

  • A clunky DIY site you’re low-key embarrassed to share

  • A brand presence that doesn’t reflect your expertise or authority

  • A site that looks fine, but doesn’t convert subscribers, students, or sales

Get More Clients

You’ve got something to teach, or something to say. But if your message isn’t crystal clear, your site won’t convert. We use StoryBrand principles to turn your copy into a magnet for the right students, clients, or customers.

Book More Calls

A great site doesn’t just look polished, it nudges people to take action. We design Squarespace websites that guide your visitors toward the “yes”: more sign-ups, more bookings, more conversations that grow your brand.

Get Found Online

If people can’t find you, they can’t learn from you. We blend Squarespace SEO and conversion-focused structure to help creators and educators rank higher, get discovered faster, and pull in the right kind of traffic.

Build Instant Trust

Your audience needs to know you’re legit, fast. We design sites that feel as polished and professional as your content. When visitors land, they’ll feel confident they’re in the right place and more likely to opt in, sign up, or reach out.

How to get started as a creator or educator

Referrals can only take you so far. To stand out online, you need a strong digital foundation—starting with a website that’s built to attract, engage, and convert. That means design, SEO, messaging, and content all working together to grow your brand.

What Makes a Great Website for Creators?

It’s not just about looking polished—it’s about trust, clarity, and action. At Knapsack, we use the StoryBrand framework to create Squarespace sites that speak directly to your audience’s problems and move them to act.

Your site should answer three key questions within seconds:
What do you do? Who is it for? What should they do next?

That kind of clarity builds trust and lets your visitors know they’re in the right place.
