Having a top quality logo for your internet business can be a real game-changer and should not be taken lightly. Over time a great logo can bring instant recognition to your brand and people will come to you for what they need through the trust you’ve managed to develop in your brand.

Characteristics Of A Great Logo

A great logo should let consumers know quickly and effectively how you’d like your brand to be perceived and should be attractive and captivating while retaining an understated feel. It needs to be recognizable and yet adaptable where the web is concerned, but most importantly it must be in line with your business objectives.

One look at a company’s logo can often tell a consumer all they need to know about how that company operates. For instance, if your logo is clear and straightforward, that would indicate to a consumer that yours is a no-nonsense, what-you-see-is-what-you-get type of company, whereas if your logo is more complex and tricky to decipher, it could mean that there’s something different about the way your company approaches business. At the end of the day, your logo should be appropriate to your brand.

Examples Of Excellent Logos

Bread and Butter Records

Simple and effective yet elegant at the same time, the logo represents a turntable, the bread and butter, if you will, of the DJ collective this logo represents. Note the small black dot in the middle of the slice of bread – the logo can double as a sticker for an actual vinyl record. Brilliant!

Cafe Expresso

The cup of coffee at the heart of the logo tells you immediately what to expect from this company, while the 3D touches to the lettering hint at the brand’s creativity. Expresso could either be an indication of the speed of service on which this company prides itself or just a play on the word espresso. We tend to lean more in the direction of the former.

Circus of Magazines

At first glance, you see the circus tent aspect of the logo, but, on closer inspection, you see a portfolio of magazines unfurling before your eyes. Simple genius in action for a site that acts as a clearing house for new and used magazines.

Snooty Peacock

The use of a peacock and it’s beautiful plumage immediately points to the elegance of the company, while turning the plumage into a lady’s hair along with additional subtle touches tell the consumer this is all about high fashion.

The Waterfront

Representing the junction of land and water, i.e. the waterfront, this logo conveys the concept brilliantly with the rippling water effect at the base of the “w” and its reflection in the water. Used for a waterfront apartment complex, appropriately enough.

The benefits of an appropriate and inspiring logo for your internet business are far-reaching and profound and can reward your care and attention manifold.
