Editing icons

Icons are an essential part of delivering information. Icons help improve the visual appearance of the page and help your visitors easily digest information. 

Here are some reasons why you should add icons to your page: 

  • Better user experience: Your visitors focus not only on the text but also on the visual design of a website.
  • Visual aid: Icons can help you draw attention to specific page elements with relevant images.
  • Consistent appearance: You can rest assured that your icons will be displayed just the way you want them across all devices without losing quality.
