When you’re building even a basic website, one of the design components is a logo. If you’re bootstrapping your website and business, you can find some great design tips for your logo in the TED talk video below.
Take a minute to notice on this website that our logo and favicon (the little logo on the browser tab) are simple. We used some line art available free from Canva.com. At some point, when the dust settles, we will work with a graphic designer to get something made, but for now we are able to move forward with our services using this logo.
For now, this logo fits the criteria outlined in the video about flag design. Watch this entertaining TED talk to learn what makes a great flag – and why the design tips apply to more than just flags.
Whether you’re going to find or create your own logo, or you’re going to work with a designer, we know you’ll find some great design tips for your logo in the video.
Grab a coffee and take 20 minutes to watch this.
