How to Add a Watermark to Images Online

Why Add Watermarks?

• Copyright protection: Deter unauthorized use of your photos
• Brand promotion: Add your logo or website URL to shared images
• Draft/proof marking: Label images as "Draft", "Proof", or "Confidential"
• Attribution: Credit the photographer automatically when images are shared

Text vs Image Watermarks

• Text watermark: Your name, website URL, copyright notice. Simple and fast to add.
• Image/logo watermark: Your logo or brand mark. More professional but requires a logo file (PNG with transparent background works best).

Watermark Best Practices

• Use 30-50% opacity — visible but not distracting
• Position in a corner or diagonally across the center
• Make it large enough to be difficult to crop out
• White or black text works on most backgrounds
