Some things to keep in mind for favicons

Keep in mind that Google has some guidelines for showing your favicons in the search results:

Google Search allows only one favicon per website, which is defined by its hostname. Thus, https://www.example.com/ and https://news.example.com/ can each have their own favicons, but https://www.example.com/sub-site, being a subdirectory, shares the main site’s favicon.

Favicon guidelines include:

  • Only one favicon per main site and its subdirectories.
  • Favicons must be accessible to Googlebot and Googlebot-Image.
  • A favicon should accurately represent your site’s brand.
  • Favicons should be sized in multiples of 48px square, though SVGs are size-flexible.
  • Keep your favicon URL consistent.
  • Inappropriate favicons, including explicit or hateful imagery, will be replaced by Google with a default icon.

That was easy, wasn’t it? So, no more excuses, get to it. Change that favicon on your Synorex Website site!
