Create Compelling Content Everyone Will Want To Share – Infographics

What is an Infographic?
Infographics are a fun and easy way to learn about complicated topics using visual tools. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. And the best part is, people love to share content like this!

It is estimated that 65% of us are visual learners – we can learn more quickly and easily when a topic and data is presented in pictures, rather than in text. It would seem there are also scientific reasons why the brain craves Infographics, which this Infographic from Neomam illustrates beautifully.

Infographics have been around in one form or another for about 500 years, although one could also argue that cave paintings and hieroglyphs often shared information in pictures too.

With the growth of the Internet, and the need to share increasingly complex information to wider audiences, the use of Infographics has exploded.  There are so many examples of great Infographics online,  covering every subject imaginable—from superhero powers, through all the different computer games controllers, to Infographics that make science understandable.

How Infographics Can Help Your Content Marketing Strategy

Infographics are another tool in our content marketing armory. Many of us forget that good SEO includes content marketing which is not just quality copy, but also includes video, audio and images. Look at any SERPs page and you will see that the first page results nearly always include images and video.

There are now many easy to use tools for creating Infographics online, such as Visual.ly and Easel.ly. There is no shortage of inspiration online and undoubtedly within your own company there is plenty of information and data to create compelling, easy to market and shareable Infographics.

Before you engage a designer or get to work creating Infographics, talk to MintCopy. We can help gather the required research facts and write compelling text to include in your Infographic. Call us now at 888-646-8003 or send us an email to find out more.

In the past month alone, our team has worked with more than a few small businesses all fired up to jump on the content marketing bandwagon. Because guess what, they have heard of ChatGPT and other ‘magical’ content creation tools that fill them with confidence that they too can dish out content like a pro.

What Kind of Material Should I Read for Business Insights?

Reading is like the spinach of the writing world, except instead of bulging muscles, it gives you bulging vocabularies! The more you read, the more you absorb the written word and the better equipped you are to string together coherent sentences that engage, convert, and transform. It's like a superpower, except instead of flying or shooting lasers out of your eyes, you can craft an epic tale that will make people laugh, cry, and question their existence all at once. So don't skip your literary greens, folks. Your writing muscles will thank you!
Are you struggling to write compelling content for your business? Don't worry, you're not alone.

Content Marketing Best Practices that Garner Attention

Remember the movie, “Field of Dreams”? It made popular the phrase, “If you build it, he will come”. Shoeless Joe and other baseball legends may have magically appeared on a cornfield-turned-baseball diamond. However, when it comes to content marketing, your audience will need more than a field of dreams to attract their attention. If you’re trying to get more traffic to your website, don’t wait for your local SEO efforts to direct your audience. Give them a hand with these proven content strategies.

How to Use a Pillar Page to Improve your Content Quality

Consider the dictionary meaning of ‘pillar’ – “a firm, upright support for a superstructure”, also defined as “a fundamental precept”. Your content marketing campaign is your ‘superstructure’ that requires a ‘firm, upright support’. That’s the key function of content pillar pages. Without these essential supports, your ‘content superstructure’ will neither stand strong, nor will it attract the right attention.

Two Proven Ways to Organize Products with Similar Keywords

In business, cannibalization typically refers to a loss of sales. A company introduces a new product that displaces sales of an older, usually more outdated, product. Instead of having an increase in sales, the market growth remains stable. What does this mean in the world of SEO and content marketing? Keyword cannibalization occurs when two products have similar keywords or phrases and confuses the search engines about which page is right for which query. Instead of competing with other businesses for search traffic, you’re competing with your own web pages. Here’s why keyword cannibalization is bad for business and how you can overcome it.

How to Optimize your Content for a Global Audience

The global market is much smaller than it once was.  Statista reports over 5 billion internet users globally, or about 63.1% of the population. Reaching out to a broader market can help your business grow, but it’s not as simple as updating your website in a new language and simply hoping your audience finds you through search.

How to Build a Functional Content Marketing Funnel

Most people don’t wake up and think, “oh, today is the day I buy my new mattress,” unless they’ve researched different brands and checked pricing at different stores. Modern customers often take their time with major (and even minor) purchases. Using that information about today’s shoppers can help you design a content marketing map, or funnel, that guides the customer to your product.
