Do you use favicons?

A lot of sites nowadays tend to have well-designed favicons because it makes your site look a lot more professional. I always find it difficult to design a proper, well-designed favicon because of how small they are. It's just so difficult to get any proper detail because of how tiny it is and how small everything will look when you upload the file. Do you guys bother with favicons or do you not upload any favicon files? Do you think there is any benefit of having a well-designed favicon?

I do generally make favicons for that nice polished feel. It takes some effort to figure out how to make something that small look good, but it's worth it.

Yes I use favicons because it makes your website stand out from all of the other websites the person has bookmarked. And it doesn't have to be a fancey favicon, a simple one will do. And I know me personally I don't look at website names whenever I am going through my favorites I look for favicons to differentiate between websites.

I am using favicons on all my websites and it is a way to distinguish your sites with other sites on the browsers.
Also, you need to create your own favicons if you don't want to be similar with other sites.
Just creating it in Photoshop and submit on a tool to covert it into .ico file.

Hope it helps!

It is amazing how a site without a favicon stands out as a bit odd. It is a small thing, but virtually essential if you want a website to be considered legitimate.
