Everything you need to know about favicons

For websites, blogs and online shops
Favicons are loved by webmasters everywhere and are a worthwhile addition to any web project. From small blogs – Blogger, Tumblr or WordPress – to online shops and large company websites, they demand the attention of visitors and create value in brand recognition.If you already have a corporate or company logo, this can easily be uploaded and incorporated into the design of the favicon. In addition, you can create a logo according to your individual style guidelines. You can also use a favicon to ensure clean source code, as browsers automatically search for the file "favicon.ico" and receive a 404 error message if they cannot find it.
Suitable for all browsers and devices
Your favicon will be displayed correctly in all browsers, and across home screens on all devices – from PC to tablet and mobile. Files and formats created by the Favicon Generator are compatible with and support the individual specifications of all browsers including Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari.The above browsers will display your favicon in two prominent places: within bookmarks and in the open tabs. Your favicon will also appear as an app icon if your website has been pinned to a mobile home screen.

You can upload both .png and .jpg files in the Favicon Generator.
