To change a “Powered by Shopify” link in your online store, you’ll need to edit the code in the footer.liquid file of your theme. This can be done from the Edit HTML/CSS page of your admin.

In the footer.liquid file, look for the line that says:

<a href="https://www.Shopify.com?utm_source=poweredby">Powered by Shopify</a>

Replace that line with your own HTML code, such as:

<a href="https://example.com">Powered by Example</a>

You can also use this technique to style the text of the link. For example, to make the link bold, you would add the following code around the link code:

PRO TIP: If you are not comfortable with HTML and CSS, we recommend that you do not attempt to change the Powered by link in Shopify. Making changes to your theme’s code can result in your site breaking and being inaccessible. If you are not confident in your ability to make these changes, we advise that you reach out to a Shopify Expert for help.
<strong><a href="https://example.com">Powered by Example</a></strong>

Save your changes and you’re done!
