One of the most important factors of your brand's identity is your logo. It's one of the few parts of your business or startup that a customer sees as they formulate their first and strongest impression of you.

A great logo will help your business stand out and appeal to customers; a bad logo will shrink your chances of making a good first impression on a potential customer. Today, you don't have to hire a graphic designer to get a great logo, and you don't have to be a designer yourself.

There are a ton of cost effective logo makers available online, so we put together a list of the top 10 to make your search easier. Give each site a try and browse existing logos to get the creative juices flowing!

Tailor Brands is really useful because it generates 6 different logos for you based on your answers to a series of questions about your business, style, and brand. The designs are modern and clean. This one requires less design expertise than most while providing some of the best looking designs, and for that reason, we think it's the number one logo maker.

<h2><img class="size-full wp-image-9738 alignright" src="https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/graphics-spring.png" alt="graphics spring" width="246" height="79" /></h2>
GraphicSprings has a simple interface for easy design.  Logos here are free to make, and cost $39.00 to buy in high resolution. <a href="http://www.abetterlemonadestand.com/logo-generator/" target="_blank">One reviewer</a> warns that the image selection feels outdated. However, logo maker tools update their image selection regularly and this one is free. It's worth giving it a try!

<h2>HipsterLogoGenerator.com</h2>
Depending on your industry and audience, the Hipster Logo Generator might be a fun option to try. The designs are minimalist and modern, which is perfect for some businesses, but since the image and style choices are narrowed down to 'hipster designs,' the results can feel a little overdone. Making a logo is free and high resolution logos are just $5. This is one you'll want to try out yourself to see if it's an option or can lend you any inspiration.
<h2>Logaster.com</h2>
Logaster offers a ton of images and fonts to ensure you can create <img class=" wp-image-9740 alignright" src="https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/logaster.png" alt="logaster" width="232" height="39" />an original logo for your business or startup. You can browse by category, industry, or search terms, and there are literally thousands of options. Small logos are free and full size logos start at $9.99. This is a great logo maker for anyone who is just getting started and wants to try out a tool to brainstorm ideas.
<h2>WithOomph.com</h2>
WithOomph is another logo generator that provides customized logos for you to choose from. You'll enter a few keywords to generate your logos and then be presented with dozens of custom logos. Each logo can then be further edited to make it line up with your business and brand better. Logos are free to make and cost $39-$78 to download in high resolution.
<h2>LogoMakr.com</h2>
<img class="size-full wp-image-9742 alignleft" src="https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/logomakr.png" alt="logomakr" width="75" height="75" />LogoMakr wastes no time in letting you start your logo. Their home page is your blank logo canvas, and you can immediately start putting together your logo using graphics, fonts, shapes, and more. Logos here are free. The interface is simple and we liked the design choices available, but you can't download a high resolution version of your logo.
