I selected this article from Curatti written by Susan Gilbert because it helps you improve your visual marketing with shareable infographics.

 

Visual graphics can be both fun and informative for your niche audience.

 

Create Infographics That Grow Your Following Online

 

People are drawn to appealing content that grabs their attention right away. I agree that infographics can help attract more subscribers and followers.

 

Gilbert shows you how to create graphics that audiences are more willing to share.

 

Here's what caught my attention:

 

  • Find out what is on the minds of your target market the most before designing your infographic. Make sure the content is both timely and relevant.

 

  • Focus on a specific group inside your niche and appeal to their pressing problems and needs. Make good on what your title promises to them.

 

  • If you have a study or a lot of data put it into a fun infographic. This is a great way to turn boring content into something interesting.

For content marketers that are looking to increase content production and save time, content curation is the answer. In addition, your audience will thank you for exposing them to new sources of 3rd party, independent content. In fact, according to a recent study, best-in-class marketers use a content marketing mix of 65% created content and 25% curated content.

Alison D. Gilbert's curator insight, April 10, 2014 7:28 PM

For many business people, Google+ has overtaken Facebook in usage. It is viewed as more professional and to be taken seriously. Facebook has a less than professional aura.

It scares me to think that education could be entirely digital eventually. There is so much to learn from a good discussion, face-to-face interactions with others, and from printed materials. I believe in the integration of technology but not for everything. I also wonder about those families (and YES they are out there) they do not have Internet access- how would that impact a student's learning?

Why Visual Content Matters in the Social Age [INFOGRAPHIC]

Why Visual Content Matters in the Social Age [INFOGRAPHIC] | Apprenticeships & Adult Education | Scoop.it

Sono sicuro si sa che il contenuto visivo sui social media può massicciamente migliorare l'impegno. Ma quanto è importante?

Che ne dite di questo: il cervello umano elabora le immagini 60.000 volte più veloce di testo. Di conseguenza, il 90 per cento di tutte le informazioni che arriva al cervello è visivo.

Sul web, si stima che il 55 per cento di tutto il traffico sarà il video entro il 2016, e il traffico video mobile aumenterà del 1800 per cento. YouTube, Instagram e Vine sono attualmente le migliori piattaforme per massimizzare il video fidanzamento, quindi sono li che utilizzano al loro pieno potenziale nelle tue campagne di marketing?

So many teens have social media and use a variety of sites!

Rachelle Wright's curator insight, May 15, 2015 3:17 PM

Only 10 percent of teenagers do not use social media.  I know one of my good friends has no social media.  It surprises me that she has not gotten at least Facebook yet.  Social media has never been something that was important to her.  I applaud her for that.  I like social media because I can see what my friends are up to and keep an eye on them.  The growth of Instagram has increased 5 percent while Facebook has decreased 9 percent in 2013.  Instagram and Snapchat are mostly used by teens ages 13 to 18.  61 percent of people use Tumblr and say it is their favorite.  I have never been on Tumblr.  I did not know it was that popular.  On social media sites 91 percent of people post photos of themselves.

The curation comment is interesting... I think it's fantastic that students are able to gain these skills without the assistance of a teacher, but ultimately if they veer off the path or have been misguided, they will always need a facilitator to not only show students the tools but also give them some best practice ideas.

Did you know that Twitter is grabbing more new registrations than Facebook, with more than half of its entire userbase compromised of people who have signed up in the last year, compared to just 19 percent for Mark Zuckerberg’s baby?

What if I said that almost a quarter (23 percent) of Facebook users check their account five or more times each day, Twitter users are 33 percent more likely to be Democrats or – sorry Foursquare – that 74 percent of Americans are unfamiliar with the concept of ‘checking in’.
