Look at the top of your browser — each tab has a tiny icon next to the title. That’s a favicon. It’s small, but it does real work for your brand.
Where favicons show up
- Browser tabs.
- Bookmarks and favourites.
- Phone home screens (when someone saves your site).
- Browser history.
Why it matters
- Professionalism. A blank or default icon looks unfinished. A proper favicon signals a real, cared-for business.
- Recognition. With many tabs open, people find yours by its icon.
- Trust. Small polish details add up to “this business pays attention.”
What makes a good favicon
- Simple — it’s tiny, so detail disappears.
- Usually your logo mark or a single letter.
- Clear at very small sizes.
- Matches your brand colours.
The takeaway
A favicon is a small detail that quietly separates a professional site from an unfinished one. It takes minutes to add — and every Vystra site ships with a proper favicon so your brand looks complete everywhere it appears.
