1.\u00a0Look what’s around<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To make sure your infographic stands out and performs excellently, you need to check what has been done so far in that respective field and how it is performing. Check the most popular infographics to see what elements they have in common.<\/p>\n

Pinterest<\/a>\u00a0is a great place to find out infographics those are already in the market.\u00a0Make sure you are searching most pinned post (infographics) to get an idea of what people are liking the most.<\/p>\n

Another great website is Visual.ly, where you can find attractive infographics distributed under several categories.<\/p>\n

While observing the infographics, you should few questions:<\/strong> which of them sends a powerful message and engages users in sharing or commenting? Which of them is most informative? Do they prompt users to take a step and make it easy to do that?\u00a0These question will allow you to think of a great infographic idea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Think of a great idea !<\/h3>\n

The basis for your infographic is the idea. One of the most effective techniques used by brands is analogy.<\/p>\n

Take a look at this eminent infographic<\/a> created by LinkedIn Marketing Solutions, which uses a food analogy to show how blogging fuels content creation.<\/p>\n

Before setting out to create your infographic, you must set its purpose \u2013 is it amusing, shocking or serious? Your main aim should always be to teach and encourage your audience.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Ensure your data is authentic<\/h3>\n

Relevancy of your data and the message you are spreading should be at the top, as well as it should be never seen never heard kind of data and impressive as well. Otherwise, you\u2019re making an infographic about facts everyone can simply learn elsewhere. Make sure the sources you are using are reliable. Fact-checking is an essential procedure to ensure your infographic is accurate.<\/p>\n

Take a peek at this amazing\u00a0infographic by Monetate<\/a> entitled The Retailer\u2019s Guide to Big Data. It\u2019s packed with figures and numbers represented in several graphs that are composed to capture the most important facts for e-commerce big data and display them in the most digestible way.<\/p>\n

Always credit your sources.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Make it Sweet and Simple<\/h3>\n

Your style should be easy and logical \u2013 restrict yourself from using many fonts, stick to one style for your visual media and follow your color scheme. Make sure\u00a0your different section have clear visual connections between each other so that your user doesn’t get confused.<\/p>\n

We should look at this,\u00a0Travel Hack’s\u00a0infographic<\/a> by Best Hospitality Degrees. Every element of the infographic follows the same style and color scheme, which is composed of just a few colors and shades.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. Engage user’s with an interesting story<\/strong><\/h3>\n

All the facts and figures you have chosen should redirect and back up your main story. It cannot be just a bunch of interesting facts \u2013 each and every piece of data should add to the main story.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

6.\u00a0What is the right size?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Website loading time plays an important role in customer engagement and optimization of the site. That\u2019s why it\u2019s a good practice to always use compressed JPEG format to reduce the weight of the infographic. This will ensure that the page loads quickly without making the visitor wait too long.<\/p>\n

Another important factor is size. You should go for a width of no more than 735 pixels \u2013 otherwise, you will risk your infographic to get re-sized and that can mess up its dimensions. Keeping your width under 735 pixels is important for sharing as well \u2013 especially on Pinterest, where 735 pixels is the full width of an expanded image.<\/p>\n

The total length of your infographic should be under 5000 pixels. If it\u2019s too long you might lose the attention of your audience.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7. Keep it Optimized for Sharing<\/h3>\n

As infographics tend to get a lot of traffic to the website, you must embed it in a blog post, optimize it for sharing and of course share it on your own social platforms.<\/p>\n

Using a tool like Sumome<\/a>\u00a0you can easily optimize it for sharing by placing social media share buttons next to the infographic. This will encourage other visitors to share it.<\/p>\n

How to share infographic effectively?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can start off by creating a special image for Facebook and adding it to your blog post. You can then write an attention-grabbing headline and then begin sharing it to all your social networks.<\/p>\n

Always include your website URL, the logo of your company and add links to your social channels in the infographic so that people will always know who created it.<\/p>\n
