Favicon (pronounced fav-eye-con) is the short name for “favorites icon” and is otherwise called as a shortcut icon. It is a square icon that is shown next to the URL of any webpage in a browser that supports tabs like Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Internet Explorer. It works as an identity of the website and company. It must be 16×16 (most common) or 32×32 pixel using 8 bit or 24 bit color.
