How to Add a Favicon to Wix

Wix lets you upload a favicon through Website Settings. Wix recommends a square image of 16x16 to 250x250 pixels — upload a 250x250 PNG for the sharpest result. You need a Premium plan or a published site for the favicon to appear on your live domain.

Step 1 — Prepare your favicon

Generate a 250x250 (or larger square) PNG with the favicon generator. Wix accepts PNG, JPG, and GIF.

Steps

  1. In your Wix dashboard open the site and click Settings
  2. Go to Website Design → Customize → Favicon (or Manage → Favicon)
  3. Click Upload Image and choose your square PNG
  4. Click Save, then Publish for it to appear on your live domain
  5. Verify in Google Search Console by resubmitting your sitemap

Troubleshooting

  • Not showing on your domain? You need a Premium plan + connected domain, or the site must be published.
  • Still seeing the old favicon? Wix and Google cache it — wait or request a re-crawl.
  • Blurry? Upload a larger square source image (at least 250x250).
