Social Links

You can easily connect your Pixpa website with your social media profiles on platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, Instagram, Behance, Pinterest and YouTube, and many others. Your website visitors will then be able to find you on various social media platforms and follow you.

Your social media profile links appear as icons on your website. You can control whether you want to show these icons on your website’s header, footer, or both.
