Having a professional and visible logo on your WordPress website is one of the most important factors for branding and building user trust. A logo not only represents your brand identity but also plays a key role in SEO and user experience.
In this article from HAMWebsite, you’ll learn how to easily and professionally add a logo to your WordPress site.
Most modern WordPress themes, such as Astra, OceanWP, and GeneratePress, include a built-in option to add a logo.
🔹 Tip: Always add an alt tag for your logo image so search engines can recognize it.
For example:
<img src=”logo.png” alt=”Official HAMWebsite Logo”>
Some simple or older WordPress themes may not have a built-in option to add a logo. In this case, you can add the logo to the header using code.
Go to Appearance → Theme Editor and insert the following code in the appropriate place within the header.php file:
<a href=”<?php echo home_url(); ?>”>
<img src=”<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/images/logo.png” alt=”لوگوی HAMWebsite”>
</a>
🔸 Note: Always back up your theme files before making any changes.
For optimal display on all devices, use the following dimensions and formats:
| Logo Type | Recommended Size | Suitable Format |
|---|---|---|
| Main Site Logo | 250 × 80 pixels | Transparent PNG |
| Favicon Logo | 512 × 512 pixels | PNG or ICO |
Adding a logo to your WordPress site is simple yet highly effective. By following the tips above, you can strengthen your brand’s visual identity and enhance your site’s user experience.
