Does SBA work on Squarespace Personal plan?

No — Code Injection is a Core/Business/Commerce plan feature. The Personal plan ($16/mo) doesn't allow header code edits. If you're on Personal, you'd need to upgrade to Core ($23/mo) or higher. This is a Squarespace platform limitation, not an SBA one.

Will SBA conflict with Squarespace's built-in analytics?

No. Squarespace Analytics, Google Analytics, and SBA are independent — they don't interfere. Many small businesses run all three.

Do I need to publish my site after pasting the code?

No — Squarespace Code Injection takes effect immediately on save. No publish step needed.

What if I'm in the visual editor (Fluid Engine)?

Code Injection is in Settings, not in the page editor. Exit the visual editor (click X or Done in the top right) and you'll see Settings in the sidebar.

Squarespace Analytics: A Simpler Alternative to Google Analytics (2026)

Why Squarespace's built-in analytics aren't enough

Squarespace Analytics is fine for the basics — visitors, traffic sources, top pages — but small business owners hit limits fast:

Vague source attribution. Tells you "social" but not which specific Instagram post.
No AI assistant. You read the dashboard and figure it out yourself.
No way to connect your posts to traffic. You'd have to figure out yourself which post drove which spike.
Weak repeat-visitor tracking. Hard to tell which people keep coming back.
Limited download options. No spreadsheet download for sharing with a bookkeeper or marketing person.

Why SBA fits Squarespace site owners

Alfred AI. Ask traffic questions in plain English and get real answers.
Auto social tracking. We scan your Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn posts every morning and connect each one to its traffic spike.
Repeat visitor streak. Flags likely future customers (people who visit 3+ times — they're seriously considering you).
Weekly Monday morning email. Plain-English recap; no login required.
No cookie banner. SBA uses no cookies — and if you're not running Google Analytics on Squarespace either, you don't need a banner at all.

How to install SBA on Squarespace (2 minutes)

Requirements: Squarespace Core, Business, or Commerce plan. The Personal plan ($16/mo) does NOT include Code Injection — you'd need to upgrade. This is a Squarespace limitation, not SBA-specific.

Step 1 — Sign up and copy your snippet

Start your free trial at app.smallbusinessanalytics.io. Copy the one-line tracking snippet from the setup screen.

Step 2 — Open Squarespace Settings

Log into Squarespace and open your website dashboard (click the pencil icon if you manage multiple sites). Then click the gear icon (Settings) in the left sidebar.

Step 3 — Navigate to Code Injection

Scroll down in Settings until you see Advanced — click it. Then click Code Injection.

Step 4 — Paste in the Header field

Click inside the Header field (the first text box) and paste your SBA snippet:

<script src="https://app.smallbusinessanalytics.io/tracker.js?tid=YOUR_ID" async></script>

Step 5 — Save

Click Save in the top left corner. Changes go live immediately — no publish step needed.

Step 6 — Verify

Go back to SBA's setup screen and click Run a test visit. We'll visit your site, confirm the tracker is installed, and seed your dashboard. If something's wrong, Alfred (AI assistant on the right side of the setup screen) walks you through fixing it.

Common stuck point: "I don't see Advanced in Settings." Almost always means you're on the Personal plan. Check Settings → Billing to confirm. Personal plans don't include Code Injection — upgrade to Core ($23/mo) or higher.
