Favicons are the small icons that sit in the toolbar of your web browser. They are also one of the more overlooked elements of web design. They fall below most people’s radar, but are noticeable when when they are present. If you have bookmark folders with several bookmarks, you know which sites have favicons.

These little icons are a great way to help market your site. Whenever someone bookmarks your site, it will stand out. Favicons are only 16×16, but pack a big punch in helping your site look professional.
