In this short article, we would like to show how to attach proper icon sizes to your webpage that have a good impact on user experience and SEO.

Because of different devices and screen resolutions, it is good to use the following sizes: 
48x48, 72x72, 96x96, 144x144, 192x192, 256x256, 384x384, 512x512.

Simple steps:

  1. export your icons to ico, gif or png files:
    batch export from svg to png with Inkscape, you can find here,
  2. insert link elements with icon paths inside head element:
    it is good to use the proper sizes of icons to match different devices,
