Your business logo plays a crucial role in brand identity. Here's how to add and customize a logo on your website:

Before You Begin:

  • Set your site title first (this becomes the logo's alt text)
  • Prepare a high-quality logo image (.jpg, .gif, or .png format)
  • For best results, use a larger image that can be scaled down
  • Consider using a transparent .png background

Adding Your Logo:

  1. From the main editor:
  • Click "Edit" in the top-left corner
  • Hover over the header and select "Edit Site Header"
  • Click the current title/logo area
  • Select the pencil icon
  • Click "+" to upload your logo
  1. Adjusting the Logo:
  • Use sliders to set logo height for desktop and mobile
  • Choose header layout position
  • Adjust maximum width/height based on template limits
  • Click "Save" to apply changes

Logo Display Tips:

  • Logos typically appear in the site header
  • Click behavior always leads to homepage
  • Can't display both logo and site title simultaneously
  • Text in logo images isn't searchable
  • Mobile display may vary by template

Removing Your Logo:

  1. Enter header editor
  2. Click logo and select pencil icon
  3. Choose "Delete" from three-dot menu
  4. Save changes

Best Practices:

  • Keep site title field populated for SEO
  • Use transparent backgrounds when appropriate
  • Check logo appearance on both desktop and mobile
  • Ensure image quality isn't compromised when scaled
  • Follow template-specific size guidelines

Pro Tip: Preview your logo across different devices before finalizing to ensure consistent branding across all viewing experiences.

Note: Specific size restrictions may apply based on your template family. Check template documentation for detailed specifications.
