How do I add social media icons to Squarespace?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 10:51 pm

Adding social media icons to Squarespace can be a bit tricky. There are a few different ways to go about it. The easiest way is to add the icons from the social media platforms themselves. To do this, you’ll need to sign in to each of the social media platforms and find the appropriate icons. Once you have the icons, you’ll need to add them to your Squarespace account. To do this, you’ll need to go to your Squarespace account settings, and then under the “Design” tab, click on the “Icons” tab. Here, you’ll find a list of all of the icons you’ve added. You can drag and drop the icons into the desired spot on your website.

PRO TIP: If you are considering adding social media icons to your Squarespace website, be aware that this could have a negative impact on your website’s performance. Social media icons are often heavy in terms of file size, which can slow down your website. In addition, if the icons are not properly optimized, they can cause your website to display incorrectly on certain devices.

Another way to add social media icons to your Squarespace account is to use a third-party tool. These tools allow you to add the icons without having to sign in to each social media platform. Instead, the tool will automatically find the icons for you and add them to your Squarespace account. The downside to using these tools is that they may not always have the latest icons available. The best option may be to use both methods – adding the icons from the social media platforms themselves, and using a third-party tool if there are any missing icons. In the end, it’s important to remember to keep your website updated with the latest icons so that your followers can easily identify your content.
