Favicons

Have you ever noticed those small icons in the URL where you enter the web address of a website? These are what are known as “favicons”. Since visual elements are easier to remember, these can be used to attract  visitors’ attention to the website. Favicons make it easier for a website to be remembered and get back to once needed. For example, if a visitor looks for your website in their browser’s bookmarks, they will more quickly recognize and locate your link. Favicons are valuable for the following purposes:

• support branding
• visual recognition
• makes a site more comfortable
