It doesn't actually, I would not have known that you were a webdesigner from just seeing your logo. 

I would vote for in this order

1. the light bulb

2. #3

3. #2

 Thanks for the feedback. My website name is not optimum designs. That is my company name. My website name has the word web in it.

Thanks everyone. If anyone else has any feedback, please share.

My website name makes it very clear I design websites. I would say it, but do not want to try to solicit. 

The web is a pretty cool idea. Thanks!

@Bob Collett I did not know that rule. I thought it was the same as everywhere else that an agent could use an IDX feed on a third party website. That is fine though, as Real Estate will be large part of my business, I have other channels I will be pursuing. I look forward to meeting you guys as well! When you are in the market for a website design, feel free to message me.

Thanks or all of the responses! I am really torn now. I initially like #2 the best, but the size threw me back...I am sure I can decrease the size of the graphic to make it look better, though.

I like the gear aspect of the light bulb logo, but not so much the light bulb in it. I am going to conctact my graphics designer and have her redesign the light bulb into something else and keep the gear.

Any other feedback appreciated!!

@John Van Uytven Thanks for the feedback! 

A lot of web design companies use abstract themes. Having coding symbols </> is WAY over used. #3 is an abstract way of depicting transformation. A big thing I use in my site.

#1 and 2 are letters O and D for my business name Optimum Designs. With web design, it is hard to market a theme. Which I think my attempt at it throughout my site shows. 

Thanks again for the thoughts!

Hey guys, I have been busy since I have last been on here. I am not in Real Estate yet, but going down that path. I have been watching a lot of the webinars Brandon does as well. Hopefully I will be attending some local Cleveland meetups here in the next month or two. 

For now, I am creating a website design company and Real Estate will be my niche I believe. You guys pay WAY too much to rent these out, when you could pay a year or two's worth of website cost and own the site and take it with you where ever you go...plus allow it to look much nicer and personalized to you.

Anyways, I am having a hard time deciding on which logo I want to use, so I thought I would get some opinions outside of people  I know.

Which of these 4 do you like best?

vv -- This logo it somewhat meant to symbolize transforming. It is somewhat of a theme in my site.

I appreciate any feedback!

I definitely want to start coming to these in Feb or March. March is more realistic, but it sounds like a great opportunity to meet some of you!

Thanks @Brandon Turner and @Michael Boyer

Michael, I am not too concerned on the weight part. It will shed off.

Brandon, great links! I definitely need a better source of income to allow me to start all of this and I am hoping when I dive into being a Realtor that will help. I found a local meeting through this site that is hosted once a month and I plan on attending.

I will be watching your podcast tonight and am excited for it.
