1. Eyecatching

Infographics should be eye catching, colourful and naturally draw the viewer’s eye. Information should be easy to read or scan and get your message across quickly.

One click of a share button is all it takes for someone to spread the word about your amazing infographic and your infographic has the potential to go viral with social media. When content is shared, your profile and website are likely to get more visitors, followers and fans.

That means when you’re ready to share your next piece of content it will reach more people quicker and likely to be more credible. We recently created an infographic for Graphic Designers,The Ultimate Battle Old Vs New and in a few days we had 3.8k shares on Creative Bloq and another several hundred on other websites.

We got 7 fantastic backlinks, which will keep growing. One of the best things about infographics is they will keep getting shared and backlinked (providing they’re still relevant).

6. Increase your SEO

Engaging infographics can have a massive impact on how you rank with Google. Businesses, bloggers and the like that find your infographic relevant will more than likely use it for themselves and link back to your website.

This is great news for ranking with Google in the search results and your domain authority (strength of your site). 

7. Engaging Content

People are more likely to remember information with visual content.
Which means they should remember you too!
