How to create a favicon?

Follow this steps and create favicon for your website! For those of you who don’t know what I am talking about, favicon is short for “Favourites-Icon” and is sometimes referred to as a “Web icon”. Favicons are a great way of adding a little personality or identity for your website! I created three steps so u can be on your way!

1. Choose an image
- logo, small image, keep it shaped like like a cube (e.g. 100 x 100 px)

2. Use an online generator
- such as http://www.genfavicon.com/ or Chami where you can upload an image from your PC. Once generated you can download it

3. Add the following html code to your website (into the <head> part)

  • <link href="/favicon.ico" rel="icon"/>
  • <link href="/favicon.ico" rel="shortcut icon"/>

Happy generating!
