blog header designBlog Header Design – Is It Really So Important?

Your blog header design is one of the most important aspects of your blog design but it one thing you don’t want to get all hung up on.

The most important part of your blog is the content and value you provide. Just because you may have a fantastic looking header, if your content stinks then you blog is next to useless.

A great header will certainly get your blog noticed and people will remember it for a long time. I know as I have been to blogs than I may have visted years ago and suddenly remember that I have been here before.

You may not remember the name but you will remember the header and blog lay out, it will trigger something in your mind.

So in this post I want to share with you 3 places you can get a really cool design and I can guarantee it will not cost you more than $5 for your header. I will also show you how to add free blog headers into you blog.

But before we jump in I just want to say that you should invest in a header for your blog and not use one of the free template ones that come with some themes. It will make your blog look like you haven’t give much thought to it so reader may not stick around.

Blog Header Design – Your Top 3 Place Online!

So the 3 blog header design places I want to share with you are:

  • Fiverr
  • Do It Yourself

XHeader – This is a free piece of software you download to you computer and is so simple to use. Just set the size of header you want and add whatever images and text you think matches your site. Don’t upgrade to the paid version as you will be just wasting your money.

If you can add an image to Word or PowerPoint then this is just a simple as doing that. The link above will take you to the download site so you can use it for free.

Fiverr – I have not used this yet for a header but have for other things and have not been disappointed. Now if this is a new one on you then everything on the site is $5! You can get pretty much anything you need for just $5 so shop around and see who catches your eye.

Do It Yourself – If you want to get all creative and don’t want any more software clogging up your hard drive then you can use Word or PowerPoint. I have used these to create badges for Facebook and other images as well.

All you need to do is create the header in the size you want and then capture the image using Jing and upload it to your blog.
