Logo pricing in the UK

A simple logo design typically costs from £50 to £500 + VAT for a standalone graphic; a full brand identity (logo, colors, typography, guidelines) runs from £500 to £2,500 + VAT. Cheap logo generators cost little but give you generic, non-exclusive artwork.

What you get at each level

At the entry level: a logo file. Mid-range: multiple concepts, revisions and the file formats you need. Full branding: a consistent identity system with guidelines so your marketing stays on-brand.

Why branding beats a logo alone

A logo alone doesn't make you recognisable. A brand identity, colors, fonts, imagery and rules, applied consistently across web, print and social is what builds trust.

Frequently asked questions

Do I own my logo outright?

With a professional design, yes, you should receive all files and full usage rights. Always confirm ownership in writing.

Is a £20 logo generator worth it?

For a hobby, maybe. For a business, no, you get a generic, non-exclusive mark that won't differentiate you and may not be legally yours to trademark.
