What to keep in mind when you want to display your logo everywhere

A picture is worth a thousand words. Therefore, your logo needs to look perfect when displayed. Here are some tips to help you with this and make sure your brand looks professional no matter where it's used.

A flexible logo

First, to be able to display your logo everywhere, you need to make sure that you can do so. There are types of logos that are more flexible than others and easy to use everywhere. Nowadays, flexibility remains one of the important features when creating a good logo or redesigning one.

So how do you make a flexible logo that can be used on the web as well as on printed documents? Our first piece of advice would be to keep it simple. The more components or colors you have, the harder it is to perfectly replicate a logo. It is worth noting that simple and minimalist logos are currently in fashion. Also, try to avoid small details since they could become blurry if the dimensions of your logo are small, for example a Favicon. 

A vector file

JPG, PNG, SVG... You probably already know that there are many file types for images. They all have strengths and weaknesses, so it's important to choose the right file according to what you want to do. For example, PNG files offer a transparent background, while JPGs are generally a smaller file size.

If you work with a printer or want promotional products, chances are you need a vector file for your logo. The great strength of vector files is that there is no loss of quality, no matter the dimensions. Your logo will never be blurry. When you create your logo with FreeLogoDesign, our premium packages give you access to an SVG vector file.

Multiple versions

It might be interesting to have different versions of your logo, in order to meet different needs. For example, if you decided to create a combined logo, the company name and an icon, you could have a version with the emblem only. Otherwise, depending on the medium, you may want to have a black and white version of your logo; Especially if you have to use it on a colored background.

Feel free to write down all the information about your logos in a brand guide. Normally, this official document contains the rules for using your company's logos.

A printer

Once you have your logo and the right image files, it's time to move on to the next step: creating and printing your promotional items and marketing tools. For printers, there are several possible options. You can work with a web printer as well as a local company.
