With Canva, you’ll have access to a wide variety of free-to-use graphic templates, logo templates, images, and much more. All of which you can use to create better branding for your online business.

I have used Canva Pro personally for the past 4 months or so but prior to this used the free version for well over a year. I highly recommend it! Check it out here: https://www.canva.com/create/logos/
