Red Eye Homepage Blog Feature for Squarespace

Red Eye on Squarespace: homepage blog feature for music and event photography. See a sample and a launch check.

After the lights go down

Choose one detail from a live music set for a homepage teaser that leads to a longer story.

Apply it to a sample brief

Feature the live set with a limited photo pit window with a headline about one production decision. The story could explain how you handled credentials, access window, and press turnaround.

Build the page

Choose one featured article and pair its headline with a short summary of what readers will learn. Keep the blog index easy to reach.

Write an article teaser

Choose a story that supports a service you want to book. Write a headline that names the subject and a one-sentence summary that gives readers a reason to open it. Put the story link next to the text.

Choose one reason to open the story

Replace a generic recent-post label with a short headline that names the project or decision. Keep the summary focused on what the reader will learn. Compare it with the destination to make sure the promise matches the article.

Check it before launch

Check that the featured story link matches the visible title and that the section still works if the thumbnail is missing. A reader can predict what the article covers from the headline alone. Recheck the feature whenever the article moves or the service changes.

Working in Squarespace

Preview your page at a wide and a narrow width after adding realistic content. Test how longer text and mixed image sizes behave in your chosen layout, then repeat the task on the published site.
