In reality, designers do not take advantage of using favicons for the websites they design. Favicons are the mini graphics for a specific website and is displayed in the URL bar of a browser. It is found next to the name of the site in the bookmark list and next also the title of the page in an interface format of a tabbed document.

These favicons should be attractive so that it is seen at once by the users and should fit the logo or design of the corresponding page.
If your website has a favicon, the URL of your site is easily found in the bookmarks of your users. And then there will be a visual relationship between the visitors of your site and your website.
Making a favicon design can be very tricky. It is not that easy to make a beautiful mini favicon icon that measures around 16×16 pixels in size. But some designers may be able to do it with such great effect. The type of logos with clear geometric structure is much simple to work with than abstract images or the typefaces.
