If you're designing a packaging logo, chances are you've thought about how to best position your logo on it. After all, the first thing people see when they look at a product is the logo.

If it's hard to see or too small, it can make the whole product seem unprofessional. But if it's too large or too bright, it can distract from the product's main selling point. If you’re interested in how to design packaging online for free, you should read on.

The Basic Rules of Logo Placement on Packaging


Logo placement is a crucial decision for any brand and one that you should never take lightly. Logo placement is also a bit of a moving target in logo packaging: every year, new packaging templates in design and marketing emerge, so it's important to keep up with the latest findings regarding how people respond to logos on their packaging.

Here are some basic rules for packaging layout templates:

Colors


While there's no hard-and-fast rule about what colors work best for your logo, we've found that reds and oranges tend to be more attention-grabbing than blues or greens. It's also important to make sure that your logo looks good against whatever background color you choose — so if you're going with reds and oranges as your main colors, make sure they don't clash with any other colors on the package!

Space


When designing your package, it's important not to crowd your logo. If there isn't enough space around it or within it for people to see all its details, you might want to consider redesigning it.

Elements


Make sure you don't include too many elements in your design — too much going on will make it hard for anyone looking at your product to focus on what matters most: getting the message across clearly!

Common Logo Placement Mistakes


As with everything, there are common mistakes to avoid. Here are some common logo placement mistakes you need to be mindful of:

  • Placing the logo too low on the page or vertically on the left side of the page (or worse, in the corner). This is a common mistake because it's easy to do, but it makes your brand look unprofessional. When designing your logo, make sure you keep in mind where it will be placed and how large it will be.
  • Placing the logo too small or too far away from other elements like text or images. If people have to squint to see it, they won't notice it — and if they don't notice it, then they probably won't remember it later when they need what you're offering! Make sure that when people visit your site or receive marketing materials from your company, they don't have to search for the logo.

How to Best Place a Logo on Packaging


When it comes to putting your logo on packaging, there are a lot of options. We're here to give you the lowdown on what works best for your brand and why.

Centered


You know this one: Your logo is smack dab in the middle of that package. This is a good choice when you want to make sure that people see your logo, but you don't want it to be too centered or too flashy.

Left or Right


If you want to show off how cool and modern your brand is, then this option is for you! Placing your logo on either the left or right side of the packaging will make it look extra modern and sleek. Maybe even a little edgy? We'll let you decide.

High or Low


This one's all about what kind of vibe you want to give off with your packaging. If you want something more high-end and luxurious, then a high placement is probably going to be best for you. A low placement is probably right up your alley if you want something more casual and fun!
