Favicon - that little added touch
Have you added a favicon to your site? If you haven’t then this post will guide you through the simple process. But before I start, let me explain what a favicon is. A favicon is the little icon that shows up in the browser and tabs of your computer (depicted below). It can distinguish your site from the masses by adding that special touch.
So how do you go about creating your favicon? Simple, follow the following few steps:
-
Create the favicon as instructed.
-
save it to your desktop
-
upload it to the root of your site (where the index page lies)
-
In the head section of your html add the following code: <link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”/favicon.ico”>
Done! You now have your very own Favicon! Enjoy!
