Once you have created a favicon you need to upload the filename.ico to your web server.

Then to add a favicon to your website you simply need to insert the following line of HTML code into the head section of your web page.

<link href=”/images/favicon.ico” rel=”shortcut icon” />

After you have done this, refresh your browser and if all is correct the favicon will appear. Some browsers update much quicker than others.
