How can I update the image that appears in Google search for my store?

Topic summary

Google search is showing a generic globe icon for the store instead of the brand logo. The goal is to replace it with the correct site icon used in search and browser tabs.

Key step: set the store’s favicon (the small site icon browsers and Google display).

Suggested actions:

  • In Shopify: Online Store > Themes > Customize > Theme settings > Logo, upload/add a favicon.
  • If no favicon option there: Online Store > Themes > Customize > Sections > Header, and set the favicon/logo from the header settings.

Notes:

  • Changes won’t appear immediately; Google needs time to re-crawl/index before the new favicon shows in search results.
  • A screenshot was shared for context, but the solution depends on theme settings rather than the image itself.

Status: No confirmation of resolution; outcome depends on Google’s indexing delay after updating the favicon.

How can I change this image on my shopify store? When I google my store name this globe is the picture instead of my logo.

Go to your Online store > Themes > Customize > Themes Settings > Logo, and add a favicon for your store.

If it does not have a favicon option, check in your Online store > Themes > Customize > Sections > Header.

It will take time for Google to index and appear your favicon thereafter adding.
