Blogs serve many different purposes, no matter what your niche area of focus is. A blog website gives writers and content creators a safe place to store and share their work. But a successful blog can also help you improve your site’s SEO, find a community or audience, or grow into other types of content. 

Here are seven great Squarespace blog templates to help you envision your unique website and get started.

1. Harman

Keep it clean, simple, and focused with this blog website template. This template is a great starting point if you don’t want to make images one of the focal points of your blog. Simply showcase your posts in chronological order and tweak the site colors to match your aesthetic.

2. Fillmore

Create a classic blog homepage with the Fillmore blog design. Posts appear in a grid layout with a feature photo and the template includes pages for extra photos and other details about you and what you’re passionate about. You can adjust how many articles appear in each row of your grid or even add a block at the top to highlight a featured post.

3. Palmera

Palmera is another classic blog design, with space for a featured image, title, and quick description or preview for each post. This could work well for a blogger with a lifestyle blog or a food blog, for example. This blog design also includes an online shop page where you can sell everything from print on demand merch to affiliate products. Or remove or hide the page until you’re ready to monetize your content.

4. Souto

If images are a key part of your blog, the Souto template could be a good choice. The grid for your blog posts gives your images a little more breathing room, so you can easily share photos in different orientations. This could work well for food bloggers who want to showcase pictures of their finished recipes.

5. Sundew

A blog website isn’t just for blogging. You can upload and host a podcast using a blog site and an RSS feed by creating new blog posts with embedded audio files for each podcast episode. The Sundew template is perfect for a podcast. Or you can easily take the template and customize the article pages for a regular blog layout.

6. idrah

You can build a lasting career or side project by sticking to a blog, but some content creators decide to expand into different topics, social media, or revenue streams like a shop or online courses. The idrah template is a perfect way to share all of those things at once—blog pages from different topic categories, featured items from your shop, and popular articles that capture your brand.

7. Otroquest

Your website can come with you, no matter how your content grows and changes. The Otroquest template is made with a streamer in mind but is ideal for any content creator who wants a home base for everything they create. The site template features a blog, events schedule, videos, merch shop, and a paywalled Member Site where subscribers can get exclusive content.

Remember that every Squarespace template is fully customizable and these are just blog examples to get you started. You can pull new ideas or design blocks to personalize any blog design you choose. But picking a template that fits your needs now can help you get a site finished and live more quickly.
