"Hey designers! I’ve been testing different logo design options for clients on a budget. Here’s what worked for me:
Freelance Platforms (Contest site removed) – I’ve found solid designers for under $50 with unlimited revisions). DIY Tools (Canva/LogoMaker for quick drafts). Hiring Students (Behance portfolios from design schools).
Anyone else have go-to spots for quality + affordability?
P.S. If you’ve used (Contest site removed) designers, share your favorite sellers below! "

First, you haven’t found solid designers for under $50. My minimum charge is 10 times that, and I’m not especially expensive.
Second, Canva is for amateurs who want templated work on a budget when they lack the skills to do it themselves.
Third, students are students. If they possessed professional skills, they wouldn’t need to attend design school. They’re worth hiring for some projects, but if quality is the goal, they lack the experience.
Fourth, why would we, as designers, look for other designers, let alone untrained, substandard designers from the contest sites you mentioned, who are willing to work for $50?
