How to add a Logo to your WordPress site

After setting up a WordPress theme, one of the first tasks is to add a logo to your WordPress site. Why is the logo so important? Because the logo is the first thing you notice about a website. The logo is more than just an image or icon at the top of your site. It’s the face of your company or organization.

By default, WordPress displays your website Title and Tagline in the header of your site. However, adding your Site Logo is very simple. The Custom Logo is a WordPress built-in feature since version 4.5. Most WordPress themes support this feature.

To add a logo to your WordPress site, follow these simple steps:

There are many ways to create a logo on your own if you don’t have one.
You can create a custom logo by using an image editing program, but it may not look professional.
