Stop Spending Hundreds Of Dollars On Logos

You look different from the person next to you and the person next to him or her. Following along the same lines, don’t you want your logo to be different and unique from the rest of the crowd? Countless times I arrive on a website and I see the standard Wordpress or Blogger theme with no unique favicon or logo. On the other end of the spectrum I have seen websites and companies spending hundreds of dollars just to create a logo.

At the start of the Web2.0 craze creating a logo meant designing a branded, colorful, aesthetically pleasing image which is meant to grab the attention of the visitors. But this does not meant throwing more money at the designer. There are hundreds of talented graphics designers out there who are eager to get their work published. You can probably find some of the best designers on sites such as DigitalPoint. One such designer named Adrian was recently featured on CourtneyTuttle.com blog.

Spending money, however, is not an option for many webmasters who are just starting out. If that is the case then either learn Photoshop or Gimp or unearth websites which will automatically generate logos for you. One such site is Logo Creatr which generates some of the best clean logos I have seen. There are other similar websites which generate templates and favicons. Sometime in the future I will collect the various free online logo, favicon, banner and template creating services in to one post. Till then Google what you need and be prepared to spend some time doing research.
