  When I see my blog posts show up on Google searches, the HostGator (my website host) logo shows up next to my posts rather than the one I have inputted for my site icon. How do I fix this?

  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Since thebarbellwayco.com is not hosted here at WordPress.com, but with Hostgator, I would recommend contacting Hostgator, as they would be able to assist you in getting that favicon changed:

  I actually found the instructions on how to change it from their site:

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities, but the essential difference is that we don’t have access to all WordPress sites, only ones hosted on our WordPress.com servers. For more information, please see:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any questions.

  Thanks!
