“share” and “click”

Great for SEO
Visuals are much more “share-worthy” than traditional text content. The nature of an infographic makes people click, like, and share it, leading Google to index your website higher thanks to Google’s “Page Rank” algorithm.

Portable and Easy to Embed
When you include an embed code with your uploaded or posted an infographic, other people can then easily share your content by embedding it directly into their web pages. The embedded infographic will then automatically link back to your site, bringing readers from other sites right to you.

Help to Increase Sales
Remember the statistics around the human brain consuming visuals better than text? Why not visualise it as an infographic? Rather than writing out the processes, benefits, and comparables, an infographic could make it instantly obvious to potential buyers as to why they should choose you over the competition.
