Logo design FAQs

How does your logo design contest work?

Designhill works as a logo design outsourcing platform besides being a creative platform. Here is how our custom logo contest works —


Create a brief: Describe what you exactly want to be designed. Then, explain your ideas for the perfect logo per your brand vision, mission, and guideline.


Launch your contest & get dozens of submissions: Once your brief is complete, launch your contest. Within a few hours of your contest launch, you receive dozens of design submissions by the talented designers.


Choose a winner: Once you like a logo from the submitted designs, declare it the winning one. Then proceed further declaring a winner. Award the designer with the prize money and move to the handover process. Finally, you get all the required files and copyright transfers.

Why should I get a custom logo?

An identifiable logo design validates your professionalism. It gets people to build trust around your brand while communicating your mission and vision to them. Your business needs a brandmark that lets people know who you are and how you differ from others. 


A logo personalized for your business also sets you apart from competitors in terms of visual identity.

What will I receive under my logo contest?

Once your logo contest is over, and the handover process is underway, you will receive all the industry-standard files (depending on your chosen plan). You can use them for online and printing purposes.

I want to use my own images in the business logo design. Can I do that?

Yes! If you have a particular image, like icons/symbols, that you want to include in your logo, please upload them to the brief section and submit them to the logo designers.


Alternatively, if you want to provide some references for designers, you can upload them too. Just choose the “UPLOAD ANY REFERENCE FILES/IMAGES” option for the same.

How can I hire the winning designer?

Once the contest is over, you can visit the portfolio of the winning designer and hire them under a 1-to-1 project. 

Do I get legal ownership of the winning design?

Yes! After the contest, the winning designer agrees to transfer the ownership and copyrights under the 'handover' process. You get all the files along with the exclusive rights.

How can I make my logo design contest confidential?

Once you have completed your brief, choose the “Contest and Marketing Add-ons" option. Then, based on your needs, you can pick a 'Private Project,' 'Hidden Project,' or 'Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) & Search Engine Privacy' add-on. 


These options ensure optimum privacy. Here’s how they work:



  1. Private Project: Under this option, only registered Designhill users can see your project.

  2. Hidden Project: This option increases creativity by blocking designers from seeing each other’s entries.

  3. Non-disclosure Agreement (NDA) & Search Engine Privacy: It comes with a standard NDA attached to your contest. You also get the flexibility to upload your own NDA.


Also, the option allows your contest to remain hidden from the search engine results.

How many iterations/changes/modifications can I get from a designer?

There is no restriction on the number of design iterations you can get for your business logo. You can ask the winning designer to make changes until you’re 100% satisfied. But as everyone's time is precious, we suggest you to be specific about the exact thing you need and share it with the designer in one go.
