Upload the generated file ("favicon.ico") to your site root folder. Verify it's there by typing http://mysite.com/favicon.ico in the browser's location, where "mysite.com" is your site's address. Next, insert the below code in the HEAD section of your pages, at the very least, your site's main index page:

HTML

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