We’ve got a great guide and video on how the favicon works on sites and how to add it in.
Let me know how you do with the information above! I’m happy to answer any questions you think of as you work on your business.
Hello,
When google searching on the PHONE it usually should show beside the website link.
I have this same problem. My Favicon is showing on Desktop up on the tab (same as ur screanshot), but not showing when searching using the phone while it is still showing the sort of Grey earth/circle icon.
Hi, @Raadelli . Thanks for describing your specific situation. On mobile Google searches, this can be done by following Google’s guidelines on how to define a favicon for mobile searches. It involves adding an additional advanced SEO meta tag into your site code in order for Google to consider placing it.
Hello @Lilith ,
How and what is the code that needs to be implemented for the favicon to appear on Google Search Results?
It isn’t enough to just add the favicon in Theme Settings > Favicon for it to appear in Google Search?
Hi @Lilith Can you assist with where in the code I should put this meta tag?
Hey Lilith - where exactly can i add the additional advanced SEO meta tag into my site code?
