Squarespace Website Development for Islamic E-Store

Job ID: 39325976

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

Job Description:
Please read the full job description before applying or messaging. Only reach out if you’re comfortable with the stated budget.

I'm looking for a professional web developer with solid Squarespace experience to help me build a website for my Islamic digital store. The store will sell digital products only — no shipping, no physical items. These will include things like eBooks, planners, journals, and downloadable PDFs.

I already have the Squarespace account set up — I will add you as a contributor and provide full editing access.

Note: Logo file has been attached to this project.

Important Note About Product Content:
At this stage, none of the digital products are ready yet — you won’t be uploading actual files or handling product content. However, the entire structure, layout, and design should reflect the long-term vision of the brand.

Here’s the vision:

Barakah Press will offer spiritually grounded, minimalist digital tools for Muslims — such as du‘ā and adhkār trackers, ibādah planners, Sunnah checklists, Ramadan bundles, and habit reflection journals.
In the long term, the store will also serve students of Islamic sciences, offering practical, organized digital resources tailored to their academic and spiritual journeys — such as memorization trackers, study planners, and mutūn revision tools.

The layout you create should be clean, calm, and ready to display these kinds of tools attractively when they are uploaded in the near future.

Key Features Required:
Product search and filtering system to help customers easily locate items

Integration of a customer review and rating system to build trust and transparency

Secure payment gateway setup (Stripe or PayPal preferred)

Clean digital product display (for printables, trackers, journals, etc.)

Footer with navigation links and social media icons

Donation Setup

Mobile responsive design throughout


Design Preferences:
Modern and minimalist aesthetic

Clean lines, simple navigation, uncluttered layout

Neutral color palette (black, white, beige, olive, soft gold)

Visual style should reflect a spiritually grounded, universal Islamic brand

Align with Barakah Press’s ethos:

“Simple steps towards sacred goals”

Note: I don’t have a specific design or layout in mind. I’d like you to use your creative judgment to make the site look polished, clean, and professional. Think of it as: “make it look nice, simple, and good.”

About the Brand:
Barakah Press is a digital store offering minimalist, spiritually grounded tools and printables for Muslims — from general worshippers to students of knowledge.

Practical tools grounded in tradition — for seekers at every stage.

Planned product examples include:

The Du‘ā Daily – a daily adhkār tracker

Barakah Planner – a life planner centered on spiritual routine

Sunnah Steps – a daily Sunnah habit checklist

Forty Nights Journal – a 40-day reflection and habit journal

Style Inspiration (for Reference):
Here are five Islamic digital stores that reflect the clean and spiritual aesthetic I’m aiming for:

Salam Prints – www.salamprints.com

The Dua Journal – www.theduajournal.com

The Ummah Shop – www.theummahshop.com

Ilma Education – www.ilmaeducation.com/shop

The Organized Muslimah – www.theorganizedmuslimah.com

These are for inspiration — the final design should reflect the unique tone of Barakah Press.

Ideal Freelancer:
Strong portfolio of Squarespace websites (please include examples)

Experience with digital product-based stores

Comfortable integrating secure payment solutions

Ability to create intuitive, user-friendly interfaces

Bonus: cultural sensitivity or familiarity with Islamic design preferences
