SVG to ICO
This SVG to ICO converter creates favicon-ready ICO files from SVG logos and icons with multiple embedded sizes.
What sizes do you need?
A good favicon.ico should include multiple resolutions:
- 16x16 - Browser tabs (the tiny one)
- 32x32 - Taskbar and bookmarks
- 48x48 - Windows desktop shortcuts
- 256x256 - High-DPI displays and Windows 10+ (optional but nice)
ICO files can contain all these sizes in one file - the browser picks the right one automatically.
How to add it to your site
Put the favicon.ico file in your site's root folder and add this to your HTML head:
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico">That's it. Browsers look for /favicon.ico by default, but the link tag makes it explicit.
But wait, what about SVG favicons?
Modern browsers actually support SVG favicons now with <link rel="icon" type="image/svg+xml" href="/icon.svg">. The advantage: one file that scales perfectly to any size. The catch: older browsers don't support it, so you should still have an ICO fallback.
For complete favicon setup, combine this with SVG to PNG for social and app icons. HTML link reference: MDN favicon rel=icon.
