Adding Logo and Favicon: A Blogger Setup Guide

By Udochi J. Stephen

Adding a Logo to a blog has become an unwanted necessity.

In one of my previous post, I talked about the necessity of having a logo for a blog’s brand name and I shared how useful this can be.

 

However, in this article I will be showing you how to insert a logo using blogger (blogspot) account. Meaning that if you don’t have a blogger account, then you should follow this step

 

Before we proceed there are two things we need to have ready for this task.

  1. We need to have the logo ready
  2. We need to have our Favicon ready STEP ONE —— STEP ONE

 

— WHAT’S FAVICON —

Favicon which is a short form for favorite icon is a small icon used by browsers which show at the top tab of these browsers for identification of a bookmarked website.  The recommended display size of a favicon is usually 160 by 160.

For you to follow these step provided, it means that you must have created or set up your blog, using blogger. And if you have done that. lets insert our desired logo and favicon.

This is a sample of a website with a description of a logo and favicon.
