Hi everyone. I’m needing some quick advice. I have my small business website on Squarespace ([https://www.teachmindset.com](https://www.teachmindset.com)) - I’m happy with home page / about etc but my BLOG needs a lot of work and Squarespace templates so limiting. Ideally, I want my blog on ghost - on a subdomain. If I did this would it hurt SEO? I really want to start writing and publishing more prolifically. Also - is there any easy way I can replicate the current site structure and have a great blog all on GHOST? Any advice welcome please about which way makes sense. Thank you! ---

Hi, It wont hurt the seo… You can use a permanent redirection from [yourdomain.com is available for purchase - Sedo.com](http://yourdomain.com/blog) to [blog.yourdomain.com](http://blog.yourdomain.com) & to make ghost blog same as your current blog you need to have a custom theme developed & for content check with your current provider if they have an option to export the blog contents in json format. ---

The answer can’t be quick as there are many question altogether :-p - Domain A: You have [https://www.teachmindset.com/](https://www.teachmindset.com/) (homepage) - Domain B: You want [https://www.teachmindset.com/blog/](https://www.teachmindset.com/blog/) using Ghost in the futur right ? **SEO** , it won’t be impacted if the transition strategy is well done. **Migration** : I don’t know if Squarespace offers a solid export fonction ?? If not I would simply copy paste everything manually. The part I’m not sure is about the **DNS record** for Domain A & B. I’m not sure this could work. Anyone? ```auto CNAME www.teachmindset.com teachmindset9239489.squarespace.link CNAME www.teachmindset.com/blog teachmindset.someprovider.link ``` Could there be an issue where squarespace override the /blog url ?? Else using [blog.teachmindset.com](http://blog.teachmindset.com) is a good idea as well with a 301 redirect. ---

Thanks for response, pascal. I have just also discovered firepress. Hmmm… options! Tempted… With firepress - If made a long form landing page as static home page and just had blog on ghost I can have top level contact forms etc - unless with firepress I could have 2-3 static pages? And I could transfer domain from Squarespace? There’s very little to my site…a more magazine blog would allow me to transcend education, wellbeing and coaching / business worlds - all of which I service! If your up for challenge of helping me pull this off! Maybe with a little ghost developer help too… ---
