Social Icons

Melody Jaimon • January 25, 2023

The Social Icons feature includes links to your social media profiles on a variety of popular networks, including Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, WhatsApp, Google My Business, and others. Including social media links on your website is critical because it is one of the best ways to reach out to your audience and gain views, both locally and globally. You can select from an existing set of social icons or upload your own custom social icons.


To include the social icons:


  1. Click Widgets in the left panel.
  2. Drag the Social Icons widget into your website.
