1. Add a Favicon…its totally worth it

It’s the easiest way to give your website that professional touch you have been looking for.
The small, but mighty, graphic makes it easy for your clients to recognize your website. The human brain is, after all, wired to respond best to graphics. So, take our advice, and don’t miss out on this powerful way to create brand awareness and improve your customer experience.
