Customize Your Favicon in Blogger

Last week I got an email from a blogger asking “What is a favicon? And how do I customize it?”

What a perfect question! Today we are going to talk all about how to add a favicon to your blogger site.

What is a Favicon?

First of all, a favicon is the cute little picture next to your url in an internet browser. Depending on which browser you are using it might look a tiny bit different. Here are some examples ::

Top – Favicon in Safari :: Bottom – Favicon in Firefox

How to Add a Favicon to Blogger

Customizing your favicon in Blogger is very simple.

First you will need to create your image in photoshop, paint, gimp, etc…

Make is an exact square, 30px x 30px. Then save that image to your desktop.

Navigate in your blogger dashboard to the layout tab. You will see “Edit” next to the favicon area.

Once you click edit a new screen will pop up where you will be able to upload your image and save.

And now you have a customized favicon!

    Thanks for the tutorial. I went through all the steps (Firefox) several times and I must be missing something. My favicon never shows up. All that’s there is a gray circle thingey and when I hover over it, it says, ‘This website doesn’t supply identity information.’ I’m not sure what on earth they’re talking about.

      Liz, Can you provide any more details as to what’s happening on your site? There are lots of reasons it may not be working…Tauni

      I am not sure I understand your question. Did you follow the process and you’re still seeing a blogger icon? — Tauni
