Give Icon to Blog
Most of people recognize and remember a site by the logo. Icon on browser title bar may be a good idea for tabbed-browser.
Icon on your blog can be in .ico format or any picture format (jpg,gif,png). But i suggest you to pick the gif one. Why? Because you can put animated icon on your blog within gif format.
There are a lot of webpages using static picture for their icon. If your page use animated icon, it will drive visitor’s attention while they are currently reading another page on the browser tab.
However, all you have to do is upload your icon and simply edit your html header file.
- Upload your picture
if you host your own site it won’t be difficult for you. Just upload icon file through FTP Manager but if you don’t, i suggest you to upload it on image-host-site like Photobucket. - Edit head tag on html file
Open html source of your page. You should see a code like <head><title> etc. Now you just need to type code below :
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://mysite.com/icon.jpg"/>and make sure you put that code after <head> and before </head> - Save Your Changes
- Refresh your Site
If you have some problem please ask me below, good luck !
