How to Add a Watermark to an Image Online

Adding a watermark to your images protects your intellectual property and brand identity. Upload your image, type the watermark text or upload a logo image, choose the position, adjust opacity and size, then download your watermarked image.

All processing happens locally in your browser. Your original image and the watermarked result never leave your device. There are no ads, no watermarks added by the tool, and no sign-up required.

Watermark Best Practices for Image Protection

A good watermark protects your images without completely obscuring the content. Position the watermark in an area that is difficult to crop out, such as the center or across a diagonal. Set the opacity between 30 and 50 percent so it is visible but not distracting.

Text watermarks should include your brand name, website URL, or copyright notice. Logo watermarks should be simplified versions of your brand mark. Consistent watermarking across all your images strengthens brand recognition and deters unauthorized use.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Using a watermark that is too transparent and gets removed easily

Set opacity to at least 40% in ${title} so your watermark is visible enough to deter unauthorized use without obscuring the image.
