Steps to Add Favicon to Blogger
Note: Before making any changes to your template, take a full backup of your blogger template.

#Step 1. Log in to your Blogger Dashboard and Navigate to Design> Edit HTML.

Design Edit HTML

#Step 2. Find </head> tag and just before the </head> tag add One of the following HTML image code. (Add.gif or .png code for firefox and .ico code for IE)

<link rel="icon" href="static_favicon.ico"/>
<link rel="icon" href="animated_favicon.gif"/>
<link rel="icon" href="static_favicon.png"/>

After Adding one of the above favicon image type, your code should be something like this:
<link href='http://www.siddharthr.in/favicon%20%281%29.ico' rel='icon'/>
<link href='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTQrovkDwTLU31wvDh7RaDsaSovFdE1bKXZVl7n8CdsgNhVoki58W5FMNELJbBGjgALvKjoJADAda2nEwSoLnk5WbfHv_gdDFPRYcpYmzXdUb7Nyupce0cgI7KfPGVqLbg8Yd41BUPu1lp/s1600/favicon.png' rel='icon'/>
</head>

For those of you wanting desperately to have your favicon to work in Internet Explorer you have to use a .ico file, since it appears that Internet Explorer simply does not want to support the .png or other formats for the favicon.

You can’t upload a .ico file to Blogger.com, that means you will need to host your favicon somewhere other that on Blogger.com. An option could be Google Page Creator.
