The Advantages of Infographics
Creating infographics seems to be all the rage these days, but why even take the time to turn a 6-minute article into a 6-hour data visualization? We all know that a picture is worth a thousand words… but in this case, even the simplest infographic can be worth a thousand leads to your website.
So, what’s the point?
Infographics have the ability to transform a boring collection of statistics, facts and figures, into a stunning masterpiece that you won’t be able to keep to yourself. Upon finding a great infographic, the reader is overcome with a thrill of discovery- almost like an adrenaline rush, triggering desire to share. The viral nature of these graphics is the key- by creating one that people want to embed on their own site or share via social networks, the original source of the infographic receives links (aka your site). This ‘link juice’ will not only increase traffic to your site but raise brand awareness and increase search result rankings in a creative way. The custom design nature of the infographic allows for sponsored branding with official company logos, taglines, and more, making it a win-win for everyone involved.
What kinds of infographics exist?
The few answers that come to my mind: beautiful, too complicated, ’amateur hour’. However, if you sit down and take some time to look at the types of infographics that are produced, the majority of them fall into one of four categories.
- “State Of”- These infographics capitalize on, well, the current ‘state of’ an industry, trend or idea. They often combine timelines with a vision of how something is changing.
- “Resource“- These provide readers with a reference for a topic, and often include ‘How-To’ guides that can be repurposed and used as promotional materials.
- “Compare/Contrast”- These, as you can guess, compare or contrast two or more things. They allow one to inject humor into content and trigger public debate.
- “Evolution”- Evolutionary infographics provide food for thought in a TV game show sort of way. They establish the source as an authority, and can lead to deep discussions about the history of something and its change over time.
Design Comes Second to Simplicity
The whole point of making an infographic is to make learning information easier, less time consuming, and more memorable. Typically, the easier something is to understand, the more enjoyable it becomes. For the ‘link bait’ to be effective, however, the content must be high-enough quality to encourage others to want to share. Often, marketers decide they want to make an infographic with a pre-conceived design layout, and have exactly what they want it to look like in their head. Then they go mining for the data. This is the complete opposite of what should be done!
In order to build rich content for an infographic, one should first follow the data and retrieve as much as possible. The data mining process is kind of like skiing- you should always leave the house with more layers than you think you need, and you can gradually take off what you don’t need. The same applies for data collection: more is always better. After you have the data, then you identify recurring themes and select relatable information that can be used together in one visualization. Once you have done this, the design for the data will become almost apparent, and it will be easy to decide the best and simplest ways for the information to be displayed.
A final note when mentioning infographic design- always think about distribution. The image should be shareable… that’s the reason you made it in the first place… and easily shareable. If the infographic is too tall and skinny, or too wide, it may not post correctly to social media sites, especially Facebook. One must always think about what will happen to the infographic after it leaves their desk, and design accordingly. Many infographics have been made into poster prints and even books! Don’t miss the chance to hang on someone’s bedroom wall just because of poor design.
