In this article, you’ll learn how to change the favicon of your Blogger website, what a favicon is, and how to generate your own favicon using a free online tool. So let’s dive in!
❓ What is a Favicon?
The favicon is the small icon that appears in the browser tab when someone visits your website.
👉 By default, Blogger shows the orange "B" icon as the favicon.
✨ For example, look at the browser tab above – you’ll see a small icon. That’s the favicon!(alert-success)
Replacing this icon with your own logo improves branding and makes your blog look more professional.
