How do I add that little icon in the location bar of my browser?

how to add a favicon to your website

Those are called Favicons (pronounced fav-eye-cons) which is short for "Favorite Icons".

Firstly you need to create your 16x16 icon with an .ico extension. You can do that online for free at FavIcon from Pics. Then, just upload the generated .ico to your server space and add this simple line in your HTML document

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/ico" href="favicon.ico" />
