If you’ve been around on the web any length of time, you’ve certainly heard or seen Network Solutions in some way, shape, or form. The company founded the domain registration business in the early nineties and continues to offer web publishing services, even though it no longer retains the monopoly it established.
The new logo and website were designed by The Pappas Group, which gives a scroll through tour of many of the design elements they put together.
Network Solutions has made it’s mark on the web’s young history and likewise I have my own connections with the company. One of the first offices was built in my hometown, so I actually saw their branding before I even started browsing! I later worked for the company shortly after the third logo was released in the mid-2000’s. Having since concluding my employment there, I’m still a customer and received advanced notice of the new design, which made me think of this retrospective.
The new logo adds another style to an already mixed bag, which leaves things wide open for discussion – what do you think?

I didn’t see the gears at all on that 90s logo, just a globe with two continents “networked” together by a land bridge. What a shocking surprise!
The concept of the 90s logo is by far the best. The execution isn’t perfect but, in my opinion, they should’ve stuck with that concept and maybe just refined it a little.
Their original I also feel is the best. THe newest one feels like it should be for a video game company not a web services company
