Favicon:

I`ve placed what you see above in the code of a site , the png image on the image folder , then uploaded to the server. It worked immediately.The same has not happended with another site in another server.By the way I´ve tried the image web link :
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://examplesite.com/images/favicon.png" type="image/png" />

It hasn´t worked either.Why sometimes it does not work ?Thanks

I usually put the image in the server root and save it with the .ico extension

 

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