How To Add Your Store Name To Shopify

Once you’ve decided on a name, you need to place it on the right places using these steps.

Step 1: Log Into Your Shopify Dashboard

Log into your Shopify admin dashboard with your user credentials.

Step 2: Theme

Go to your ‘Themes’ section and click on the ‘Theme editor’ option on the theme you’re currently using.

Step 3: Header

Click on the ‘Header’ option in the left-hand menu.

Step 4: Logo

In the logo section, select the checkbox that says ‘Use a custom logo’. Now you need to upload a custom logo image. This needs to be 450 x 200 pixels large. If you don’t have the file this big, talk to your graphic designer or use a free graphics studio to make changes to your logo.

Step 5: Settings

Select the checkbox ‘Main Menu below logo’ if you would like your brand logo above your main menu. This is the standard location for most logos and it places your logo and brand name in a prominent position on your site.

You should also ensure the ‘Left align logo’ checkbox is selected. This is another standard process of most website designs.

Step 6: Save

Once you’re happy with the position and style of the logo, that should contain your name, then click on the ‘Save’ option to complete the process.

If you want to be found based on your brand name you should follow these simple tips.

• Ensure your logo’s title has your brand name in it. Most companies use file names such as logo or logo-small. These are bad for SEO and instead it should be something like brand-name-logo.
• Don’t be too complicated on your name. Misspellings can be a problem with SEO.

Sometimes you don’t have a logo for your business yet. And you want to just use text to showcase your business’ name. For this, use the steps below.

Step 1: Log Into Your Shopify Dashboard
