SimplyGeo.com Logo Completed

Published by Steve at 06:57 am under Blog Improvements, Branding, Development, General

Today, I placed the new SimplyGeo.com logo on the blog after months of deliberation.  When I first launched the blog, I knew one of the top priorities was to develop an effective logo that would communicate the Geo domain industry as a whole.  The blogs purpose was to cover this niche, and it was imperative to make a wise decision on the right logo that would communicate this.  

We all understand the importance of a logo and the success an effective logo can deliver.  There are many people who rush to put a logo on their site and this can be costly if you plan on growing your site into a business.   

Anyway, I thought about all the types of logos available, flash, fancy, plain, and busy.  After 2 months of brainstorming on many different ideas for the blog logo (Very Frustrating), the right concept presented itself in my eyes.  It was a simple plain logo that said so much if you understand logos and this industry.

The logo is located on the left hand side of the header.  It does not include the buildings and has a blue backdrop.  Every logo has a story to tell, so here is SimplyGeo.com’s story.  

This is what the logo was developed to communicate:

-The circle signifies the World and it’s many destinations
-The bold GEO signifies the importance of geo domains as new media of the world
-The white signifies the purity of traffic geo domains deliver
-The blue signifies the unity of professionals in this industry throughout the world connected by oceans

So this is the new logo.  Please let me know your thoughts, The good, the bad and the ugly.  I do not take offense to constructive critisism.  A plain and simple logo is sometimes the most effective logo.

    Hi Steve

    I love the new Logo.
    Very cool design Stands out well. 1o points to whoever designed it.
    it stands out and punches you in the face “supperb”

    The old one did not want to say but Having a USA only Map was doing it damage.

    Tommy,

    That was not a logo that I had on the blog before. It was only a place holder to fill space.

    I am glad you like it! I really like it too!

    Thank you
