In the past, cowboys branded cattle to mark ownership.

This means that your logo should do the same thing and represent your entire brand. Apart from your online shop, you can imprint your logo on your products and business card.

The size of your logo matters a lot as a logo with a good size can pique the curiosity of your potential customers, prompting them to at least look, and hopefully purchase your products.

A perfectly designed logo distinguishes you from the competition. From time to time, you may decide to redesign the logo of your store and perhaps update their look or reflect some other corporate change. At times, size is not put into consideration and you may have to constantly resize the image each time you redesign the logo.

Fortunately, you can use CSS to change the size of your logo. First, you need to know how you can add a logo to your site.
