Another installment of my ongoing series of reviews of logo services, both pros, and cons, for your small business.
Today I am reviewing the site called LogoNerds.com which boasts affordable logo design services and with a coupon code. My initial impression is that they are cheap logo design – in both price and appearance! No better than a free design 🙁
My recommendation is to get a great logo designed in a graphic design contest at 99designs. However, please continue reading to see logo examples from both sites – Logo Nerds and 99 logos – compared side by side to see why I recommend 99designs instead of Logo Nerds for your new business logo.
Keep reading to get your questions answered including how much is Logo Nerds, sometimes called nerd logo, is it legit, what about complaints and what is your review.
I bought my new logo at 99designs and I love it! Read about my 99 designs logo experience and review here
LogoNerds claims they are the best cheap logo design site online. I don’t think so!

After you go to logo nerds login and give them your logo design details it will take a long time, as compared to more reputable logo sites, up to 5 working days – so about a week on average. Compare that to my logo design contest which started to get ideas and submissions within 24 hours! Once you place your order you will get an automated email telling you the process has begun.
Most customers of their service warn you that you will not get great customer service since all of your contacts will be via email. They do not have a customer service phone number – which I find to be a real negative. People who use their service do it for quick and fast (and not very important sites). In fact, this reviewer said, “I didn’t have unrealistic expectations that I’d get back an iconic logo I’d use for decades.”
So why bother? I say either get a good logo for a reasonable price at 99designs, or one of their competitors or go with no logo and just white label your company.
Logo Nerds Complaints
One of my friends, a full-time online marketer wanted to get a cheap logo and tried LogoNerds and wish he had not! He reports that he had used them in the past with acceptable results but his last order was a mess and he almost got sued by Getty Images for copyright infringement.
Customer service at Logo Nerds dumped them and sent an email stating, “the Logo Nerds terms and conditions state that the logo design images do not belong to them and it’s the user’s responsibility to check the rights of all the images before they go on to your website.” Yikes!

On the company website, they have many reviews posted. While the customers did not post their full name they did post their company names which lend credibility. I searched many of the company names of reviews to confirm that they are real companies and are using the logo designs they purchased at LogoNerds. The answer is yes.

BBB Better Business Bureau
Logo Nerds are rated A+ by the BBB rating system. There is only one review posted from 2015 and it is negative. The customer did not like the logo design sent.
I was impressed that the company, Logo Nerds, posted a clear explanation and agreed to make it right. Seems it was a miscommunication and missed emails.
