If you are one of those entrepreneurs who think that a aren't as simple to create as other web graphics as a website logo design has to be high profile in terms of technicality and appearance.

Thus, you may follow the below given tips:

1.Usage of Vectors:

It is a MUST these days for every graphics designer to use vectors but everyone doesn't consider it which is a mistake. Vector designs allow the most variants for your logo. Its best when you want to rescale the logo any time for any stage such as blogs, websites, brochures, business cards, banners etc because one of its best feature is its capability of resizing without the loss of picture quality.

2. Don't use more than 3 fonts:

Only the unprofessional and immature designers make the mistake of using more than 3 fonts in custom logo designs. In fact using 3 fonts is also much but it's bearable. As I see it, a multi font logo design gives a real bad feel to the viewers as it looks too childish and amateurish. Thus one font should be used for the company's name, one for the slogan and even if you want 1 more font than you may include it in any additional logo design's text that may be your website address or something.

3.Make it easily readable:

No matter if you have put endless efforts on your business logo design but if your logo isn't readable to your readers and they can't understand the logos design, its text and message than it's a total wastage to you! So must design your logo in such a simplistic style that it doesn't confuse your clients and they easily understand what your custom logo designs shows, and what your company is all about.

4.Avoid adding photos:

Photos and pictorial graphics are not vectors and thus they don't scale well, then why to use them? It has been seen that pictures have no branding value, so using them can create a problem for you in a long term. What you need to put in your logo are the different symbols that go along with the theme of your business.

5.Avoid using and following current trends:

"Trends come and go", you have heard thus, right? If yes, than you may believe it once and for all. Following the traditions is not for wise entrepreneurs and it can only ruin your business image in a long term and nothing else. So in order to look fresh, you should come up with something unique instead of using the traditional or current styles. In order to come up with unique ideas for Website logo designs you may GOOGLE so you can look at some good design that will give you new ideas and inspiration.

Thus, these 5 tips will help you in designing your Website logo design following Custom logo designs.

Hi zoya, I realize that you wrote this article back in march but the topic is right where I am at right now. The one thing I don't understand is the term vector. I am probably wrong but I seem to only be able to relate the term to layering. Is this true? I have two new logos I have been working on and I do understand the importance of getting it right. I will be looking forward to hearing from you on this topic. Maybe my limited self can learn something Lol!
