Probably, many users noticed that when you open a website in the left corner of the tab displays a small icon that is typical for each portal. However, few people know what it is and how to change it on their website.
The history of the first favicons
A small icon on the site is called a favicon, which means "icon for favorites" translated from English. Initially, it was used to quickly find and restore bookmarks in IE browsers. Then it became universally displayed by almost all Internet walkers to give the site a special style.
