Google Clarifies Supported Favicon File Formats in Updated Documentation

Google has updated its favicon search developer documentation to clarify which file formats are supported by Google Search. The updated documentation lists BMP, GIF, ICO, PNG, JPEG, PPM, and TIFF as the supported favicon file formats. This change aims to be clearer about which file formats are actually supported in Google Search.

In the past, the documentation linked to an external reference that evolved over time and caused ambiguity about which favicon file formats were supported by Google Search. The update explicitly lists the supported file formats in the documentation.
