Choose the Best Online Custom Logo Design Firms

There are so many options out there when it comes to getting a logo designed. I recommend getting a custom logo designed through an online firm in order to get great value from a professional designer as well as having input into the design process.

In this article we outline some of the factors that you should take into consideration before choosing a firm for the important task of designing your business logo, the face of your brand.

Price is one selection criteria that people rank highly. Low price doesn't always mean poor quality but in general you get what you pay for. Look for good value rather than going with the cheapest option.

Professional logo designers have an obligation to clients to produce designs that are original and not infringing on the trademarks of other companies. Choose a logo designer from the US to protect yourself in the unlikely case that you are sued for copyright infringement.

Once you start comparing companies start by going through their portfolios on their websites to get an idea of the kind of work that they do. Many have their portfolios set out into industry categories so you can see some logo samples that they have done for businesses similar to yours.

Then you can look at the packages that each company offer and the value that each package contains. Consider the following aspects of a logo package.

1) How many logo designers will work on your project? If more than one designer has input into the project then you will get several different perspectives.

2) How many initial concepts will be presented to you for you to choose from? And will they all be distinctly different design variations or will some of them be similar or just offer color variations.

3) How many rounds of revisions are offered? Custom logo firms usually offer a number of concepts and the customer then chooses their favorite and then have the chance to have adjustments made to it.

4) Delivery time. Find out how long it will take to complete the whole process, particularly if you have a deadline to work to.

5) Money back guarantee. Some companies offer a money back guarantee up to certain points in the design process. Some only offer a satisfaction guarantee and others have cancellation charges. Promises are often vague and you must read the terms and conditions page to be sure of your rights.

6) File formats. Talk to your website designer or printer and make sure that your logo designer can deliver the designs in files that are compatible with their system.

A custom logo design solution is the best way to go these days and will cost you only a fraction of what you would pay a local graphic designer.

Shop around and proceed cautiously and you will find that you can get a great customized logo online for your business for less than a few hundred dollars.
