What is a Favicon?
A favicon is a small 16X16 image located at the top of your browser in the url bar.




How to Change your Favicon

    First go to Layout >Edit HTML in your Blogger Dashboard.
    Backup your existing template before making any changes!
    Place the code below directly below the </head> tag in your template
<link href='http://bsaves.com/HowHero/Blogger%20Templates/moonspot/images/favicon.ico' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/vnd.microsoft.icon' /> <link href='http://bsaves.com/HowHero/Blogger%20Templates/moonspot/images/favicon.ico' rel='icon'/>
