Hey Saad,

There's no major SEO impact, however, there are some reasons why you want to have the favicon on your site.

In this thread, one of the answers was that "most browsers automatically look for a file called favicon.ico in the root folder of a website - if the file doesn't exist a 404 Not Found error is returned - so it makes sense to have a small or blank file rather than nothing to prevent that extra server hog.

Cheers, Martin
