The change the style of the footnote number in the running text use the
\setupnote command and to change the style/layout of the footnote entry
itself use the \setupnotation command.

%%%% begin example
\setupnote
   [textcommand={\offset[y=-1ex]},% raise the number
      textstyle={\switchtobodyfont[10pt]}]% change the font size

\setupnotation
   [footnote]
   [  alternative=serried,% number in the paragraph
      headcommand=\groupedcommand{\hskip{8pt}}{},% space before the number
         distance=4pt,% space after the number
    numbercommand={\offset[y=-1ex]},% raise the number
      numberstyle={\switchtobodyfont[10pt]},% change the font size
           before={\blank[medium]}]% vertical space before the entry

\starttext
\dorecurse{3}{\samplefile{weisman}\footnote{\samplefile{ward}} }
\stoptext
%%%% end example
