Disconnecting a third-party domain from your Squarespace site involves two main steps:

Before Disconnecting

• Set a new primary domain first if disconnecting your primary domain
• Note: Disconnecting won't affect linked Google Workspace accounts
• For GoDaddy domains connected automatically, manual disconnection is required afterward

Step 1: Disconnect Domain

1. Log into your Squarespace site
2. Open the Domains panel
3. Select the third-party domain
4. Scroll down and click "Disconnect domain"
5. Confirm by clicking "Disconnect" in the popup

Step 2: Remove DNS Records

1. Log into your domain provider account
2. Remove all Squarespace DNS records

Important Notes:

• Domain visitors will see an error message until DNS records are updated
• Each provider has different steps for DNS record management
• Contact your domain provider for specific DNS editing instructions
• Expired site deletion automatically disconnects all linked third-party domains

For GoDaddy Users: After following the above steps, additional manual disconnection is required. Contact GoDaddy support for assistance.

This process applies to domains purchased from third-party providers. For Squarespace domains, refer to the domain transfer process instead.

Remember: Keep your domain's DNS records updated to prevent site access issues after disconnection.
