Modify/Adding element in layout from views

I have a layout page that I applied for most of my views.

Now I'm asked to place a website logo + link in my homepage. The problem is the <a> tag must be placed in a div tag (the left menu) in my layout view.

If I place the link in my layout view, the link will appear in most of my pages, but I only need it to be appeared only in my homepage

Now the question is how do I add/modify the layout div tag to insert the link+logo from my home page view (Home/Index.cshtml) ?

You could do this : 

public HomeController : Controller
{
  public ActionResult Index()
  {
     ViewBag.HomeLink = "http://some.com"
  }
}

then in the Layout check if ViewBag.HomeLink exists and just render the anchor. That way only the home page will get the link rendered.
