More information on favicon (favorites icon)

A favicon is a small, 16x16 image that is shown inside the browser's location bar(address bar) and bookmark menu when your site is called up. It is a good way to brand your site and increase it's prominence in your visitor's bookmark menu.

After you've created a neat favicon, it's time to add it to your site. To do so, follow the below simple procedure:

1. Upload the generated file ("favicon.ico") to your site. Verify it's there by typing http://mysite.com/favicon.ico in the browser's location, where "mysite.com" is your site's address.
2. Next, insert the below code in the HEAD section of your pages, at the very least, your site's main index page:

   <link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico">

3. That's it! Note that your favicon may not appear immediately after you've completed the above two steps. You may need to refresh a few times.
