Infographics are often overlooked and you might be wondering, why should I make an infographic? Here are a few reasons as to how infographics help your digital marketing strategy from your local Brooklyn marketing agency.

Engages your audience effectively

Infographics are pretty sweet because they can convey your message in a very colorful and exciting way. If you hire a good graphic designer, who knows the ins and outs of font and color schemes, you can have something that will naturally catch your audience’s eye. A lot of infographics are based on information that is not usually known about, or provides a step by step guide as to how to do something. So the infographic usually can be relevant a long time after you create it. Also, people are more willing to share a colorful infographic over a plain text blog post, so why not invest the money, and help spread the word about your business.

They are also specifically designed to keep your audience on the page longer and absorb more of your content. Research shows that pages with compelling images attains 94% more page views than pages that do not have compelling images, as well as see a 12% increase in traffic for infographics alone*.

Link building

Infographics are a great resource to start your link building campaign. There are a million websites out there that are dedicated to creating an infographic library.

This is extremely useful for improving your SEO for your website and will help spread your business to other websites that have the audience you want to reach. Include an embed code on the blog so anyone who likes your infographic can include it on their site, perhaps start emailing people who might be interested in your infographic and ask if they want to put it on their site for no extra charge.
