How to add a Favicon

In this article we'll guide you through the process of adding a Favicon to your website.

There are two ways to add a Favicon, either by adding your own or adding the Favicon design upgrade to get it professionally designed by our designers.

Via the Website editor's general settings.
Make sure you already uploaded your 'Favicon' icon file to your 'File store' first. If not, you can do so by going to the 'File store' in your website editor and upload your chosen icon. Please note, the file should be in the .ico extension, e.g. Yourfilename.ico. Then copy to file's URL by right clicking on the file and selecting 'copy link address'.

  1. In the website editor, go to the 'Settings' tab, then click on 'General'.
  2. Find the 'Browser icons' section.
  3. You'll see two options open to you:
  4. Paste your favicons URL in to the 'Favicon box'.
  5. Finish the process by updating the settings.

Via Favicon upgrade.
If you choose the 'Favicon design' upgrade, our designers will professionally design a custom Favicon from your logo or your company's branding if the logo is not suitable.

  1. In the website editor, go to 'Upgrades'.
  2. Select 'Favicon design'.
  3. Before adding the upgrades make sure to read the description and our terms and conditions.
  4. Click on the 'Add now' button.
  5. An email will be sent to you confirming your upgrade and letting you know what will happen next.
  6. Once the icon has been designed we will upload and apply it to your site.
