Why Favicons Matter
Favicons are small but mighty branding elements. They appear in browser tabs, bookmarks, history, and shortcuts, helping users quickly identify and return to your website. A professional favicon builds trust and recognition.
Modern websites need multiple favicon sizes to look perfect across all devices and platforms. Our favicon generator creates all necessary sizes from a single image, saving you hours of manual resizing.
Best Practices for Favicons
- Use Simple Designs: Favicons are tiny. Keep designs simple and recognizable at small sizes.
- Square Format: Upload square images (same width and height) for best results.
- Transparent Background: PNG with transparency works best, especially for logos.
- Brand Colors: Use your brand colors for instant recognition.
- High Resolution: Start with at least 512×512 pixels for best quality when downscaling.
- Test Across Devices: View your favicons on different browsers and devices.
