Using 'As Seen On' with Media Logos on your website? Is it legal? The answer is Yes! But there are some things to consider because logos are a form of business trademark protected by intellectual property law. Use them incorrectly and you could be guilty of trademark infringement ...

Placement – In general, it’s quite a common practice to place media logos below the Homepage Banner; or in a different section of your website
Size – The size of any media logo should be smaller than your own corporate logo or graphics.
Context – It needs to be clear that these media bands are not supporting you, sponsoring you, or otherwise influencing the strategy of your business. Many companies 'gray' out the logos so they are recognizable, but not overly visible.
Add media logos to your website in a way that won’t confuse, deceive or manipulate customers.
