You may be wondering how in the world you can sound like you know what you’re talking about. Well, I’ve come up the most effective way and it is as follows – know what you’re talking about. That was rather blunt, wasn’t it?

You are likely looking at favicons all day, but don’t realize that not having one on your website is killing you. It really is – you’re missing out on that entire opportunity to brand your website.
