My domain name won't connect to my website

gschutte — Sat, 20 Sep 2025 09:49:54 GMT

I built a website in Square and successfully transferred my domain (peaceinthepause.com) to Square.

We old website was built in Weebly via Bluehost and they deleted all of my content and files.

I can't get my domain, peaceinthepause.com, to connect to the website I built in Square. I tried renaming the website in the Bluehost/Weebly editor, per other resolution suggestions, but I don't see the place to do that.

I appreciate any insight and help.

HI, to understand you created a whole new website on Square and you are needing the .com to connect to the Square Online website.

Domain transfers can take 7 to 15 business days for Square to receive and process your domain. (Please note for future reference: a domain can remain with the domain provider for the life of the website, it does not need to "transfer out".)

Hopefully this Square Support page will help.

Thank you for your reply. Both Square and Bluehost have verified that the domain transfer was completed. The problem is with the site name in my "old" weebly account/presence creating a conflict with connecting my newly built website to my domain name.

I appreciate the note regarding where domain can live... however that is now a mute point. I am done with lackluster customer service via Bluehost and wanted to move to a better experience. Frankly, it's not going as well as I hoped.
