Favicons enhance user experience by providing visual cues that help users quickly identify and navigate to the website they want among multiple open tabs. Favicons also contribute to brand recognition and consistency by displaying your brand's logo or symbol. This reinforces your website's identity across different platforms.

Click-through rates on search engine result pages will also be influenced by favicons. A recognizable icon next to your listings on the result pages can attract more clicks and improve overall visibility. Lastly, favicons add a professional appeal, as it indicates that you have attention to detail.
