Log in to your website's control panel and upload the ". ico" file to your domain's root directory. Web browsers will automatically search for the Favicon. ico file in a site's root directory, and the image will appear in the address bar, favorites list and bookmarks for your website.
To add a favicon to your website, either save your favicon image to the root directory of your webserver, or create a folder in the root directory called images, and save your favicon image in this folder. A common name for a favicon image is "favicon.ico".
A favicon (/ˈfæv. ɪˌkɒn/; short for favorite icon), also known as a shortcut icon, website icon, tab icon, URL icon, or bookmark icon, is a file containing one or more small icons, associated with a particular website or web page.
