Cost Logo Design
How much does it cost to remove a company logo/”designed by” from your website design?
A company designed a website for me and have “designed by. . .” at the bottom of the page. I feel this makes the website seem a little amateur, they’ve done other websites without putting this why mine? What’s the best way to go about having it removed?
Will it cost?
You may have copyright issues if you try to modify the page design. You may own the site, but the designer may own the layout.
If you don’t have a contract specifying who owns the rights, then it is practically automatic that the designer owns the copyrights and he can actually sue YOU if you attempt to modify it without his permission.

I can’t say for sure, but one of the reasons his “credit” is displayed on your site and not others is that you didn’t get charged as much as he charged those other sites. In other words, in exchange for a discount on the design, he gave himself some “advertisement” space.
By the way, designer’s credit is pretty common on websites, ESPECIALLY on sites that owners hire other designers to create.
