Normally, when the conventional favicon adding via HTML method is used, the customized favicon won't appear on the Blog List and the default Blogger favicon remains there.

But with this new customized Favicon Upload feature, Blogger has certainly took a big step in fulfilling what the Blogger bloggers need - a favicon for the blog's identity!

How to create favicon (.ico) file?

Firstly, an icon is required. You can either use an online icon creator (which may not be user-friendly) or Photoshop.

Once you've designed your icon, save it as an image file. Next, proceed to the online icon generator to generate the icon. There, upload your saved favicon image, select icon size 16x16 and generate it. Once it's done, download the icon into your computer.

Then you can use the downloaded icon and select it as the favicon (.ico) file.
