$25 logo design - result

Filed under: Marketing

OK,

My logo has now arrived from GotLogos.com and I have to say I am pleased with the result.
HPW Logo White
The service was quick, and polite and they delivered to my deadline. I recieved 2 gifs, one a transparent background and the other a white background. I think for the price it is certainly worth a try. Admitedly you cannot ask for changes and there is a certain element of pot luck as to whether or not you like the result. What I did do was make sure I gave them plenty of information on the style I was looking for and the message I wanted my logo to convey.

Now I just need to add the logo to this site. Watch this space.

Quick Online Tips: Tips to Buy a Domain Name Successfully

If you’re looking to buy a domain it’s worth researching the possibilities and then leaving the decision for a while. Ask yourself is the name memorable? Could people who don’t speak your language pronounce it correctly? Does it elicit any good feelings about your property?

By leaving the buying decision for a while, you can really let the names usefulness (or not) sink in. And don’t think that someone else may get that amazing domain you’ve been looking at. In the real world, they won’t, and even if they did get in first, using a bit of creativity you’ll soon find an even better one.

On a more personal note, I’ve found one of the better services for domain name registration and hosting to be OneandOne. Their service has been consistent and I’m happy to recommend them.
