Hi,

I run a web site called freelogodesign .us - We are offering < link drop removed> by professional logo designers.

You will receive your final logo in all of the major file formats - AI, EPS, PSD, JPG, GIF, TIFF, and PNG. We also offer a round of revisions.

There are no hidden costs and no links to our web site are required. It is absolutely 100% free. A new winner is selected every 24 hours.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Staniel

Just curious, but how does one with totally free services pay for their hosting & other living expenses? I mean, does the advertisements & or sponsors offset the cost of hosting & daily living, Or is this just temporary to build a portfolio?

It looks like they pick a winner every day to receive free logo design. You have to check their site daily to see if you won so that would be my guess as to how they monetize.

So, basically, they spend countless hours designing & doing revisions purely for the adsense on the site to compensate for domain / hosting / & other living expenses?

Interesting. :|

I guess they choose the easy job when they choose a winner.

Or perhaps the point is to flip the site for a few K once they get links from a number of forums that allow it. Free services are a good hook to get links from webmaster forums and communities.

Hi,

Thank you for your responses and interest in <link drop removed AGAIN!> I will not make another link to the site in this thread until I find out why the first link was removed.

Here are the answers to your inquiries.

Hi scorpionagency,

You wrote: Just curious, but how does one with totally free services pay for their hosting & other living expenses? Or is this just temporary to build a portfolio? So, basically, they spend countless hours designing & doing revisions purely for the ads on the site to compensate for domain / hosting / & other living expenses?

Our site has a single winner selected daily. This is only one extra logo job on top of our designers' paid workload. The website clearly states the details of how free logo design works. You can visit the how it works page via the main menu for a complete explanation.

Why are we offering this? It is a way to give something back and it's exciting. The person selected each day has only 24 hours to claim their prize via our website. Every free or paid logo project builds a designer's portfolio and experience. The more you do it, the better you get. Everybody can always improve their skills, even professionals. You learn something everyday. We also have a few ads on the website.

Thanks!


Hi johniman7,

Thanks for reading the website. You are right.

Thanks!

Hi UlrikM,

You said: I guess they choose the easy job when they choose a winner.

This is absolutely incorrect. We do not learn about the full project details until after the winner has collected their prize and filled out our customization form. When they sign up, people usually write a sentence or two. There is no way of knowing from a few words whether a job will be easy or hard. Winners are randomly selected.

Thanks!


Hi !business.cards,

You said: Or perhaps the point is to flip the site for a few K once they get links from a number of forums that allow it. Free services are a good hook to get links from webmaster forums and communities.

This is completely incorrect. We have zero intentions to flip this or any other website. The reason for posting on a webmaster or business forum...webmasters and business owners are most likely going to need a logo. Why not give them the chance to get it for free? How else will they find out about it? Maybe via a search engine but it takes a while to get indexed. Forum members are actually getting the best part because their entries are currently competing against minimal search engine traffic.

Please let me know if you have any more questions.

Thank you,

Staniel

Ok, so you do free designs for the experience & ad revenue (As I said before), thanks for clarifying that for me. Good luck!

Your link was removed (again) because this is NOT the marketplace and NOT the place for self-promotional ads. If you want to promote your business, put your listing in the Marketplace where it belongs.

Hi LadynRed,

Sorry about the misunderstanding. Thank you for letting my know why it was removed. I will not do it again.

Thanks!
