How to Add a Button in the Header in Hostinger Website Builder

July 18, 2025

If you’re using the Hostinger Website Builder and want to make your site more engaging and conversion-friendly, adding a button in the header is a powerful way to do it. Whether you want to link to a contact form, newsletter signup, or shop page, having a button in the top navigation can grab attention fast.

In this post, I’ll walk you through the exact steps to add and customize a header button in Hostinger Website Builder.

Step 1: Access Your Hostinger Website

Start by logging into your Hostinger account. Go to the “Websites” section and click Edit Website next to the project you want to update.

Step 2: Enable the Header Button

  • Click on the website header to select it
  • Click “Edit Header”
  • Go to the Elements tab
  • Toggle Show Button to ON

Once enabled, a button will automatically appear in the header.

Step 3: Customize the Button Text and Link

Click on the new button and set the text to something like “Sign Up” or “Contact Us.”
You can link it to:

  • Any page on your site
  • An external website
  • A specific section of a page
  • An email address or phone number
  • A downloadable file

In the example, the button is linked to the Contact page.

Step 4: Style the Button

You can customize the button’s appearance for both the normal and hover states:

  • Fill color: Choose brand colors (e.g., orange or yellow)
  • Text color: Make sure it stands out (e.g., black on yellow)
  • Border: Adjust color, width, and radius for a rounded or squared look
  • Text size: Make the button big enough to be noticeable

Don’t forget to also style the hover effect—a subtle color change on mouseover can make a big difference.

Step 5: Publish Your Changes

Click Update Website to apply your changes, then preview your site live to test the button.
