Infographic Software programs
The infographics shown here were all deisnged using Easelly which is a specific infographic software program. This program is free to sign up to as it is currently being BETA tested (ie - they want people to try it out and see what works and what doesn't)Because it is not fully developed it can be very frustrating to use and does require some patience when you start using it.
How do you use Easelly?
Normally I would have included step by step instructions on how to use a program. In this case I haven't because why it is being developed my instructions would quickly be outdated. It is reasonably simple to use - ask questions if you need advice.
Style of Infographics
When you plublish an infographic with Easelly you can make it public or keep it private. Shown below are some examples of the ones on public view. It's good for getting some ideas on layout or topics.
Graphics programs
You don't have to use a specific infographics program like Easelly to create an infographic. Any graphics software program like Photoshop can be used.
Design skills
You don't need any specific design skills to get started. Use your imagination and have a go. Would recommend using a specific program if you haven't used a graphics program like Photoshop simply because it will save you time.
Additional resources
If you're using a specific infographic software program you will be able to use graphics that come as part of the program. However, you can upload your own pictures as I have done.Join the Discussion

Great info! I have always struggled with adding graphics to my web pages. Infographics will make it easier to add quality content and break up the text.
On a side note, your infographic for your coaching site is very motivational! I should print it out and hang it in my cubicle at work to help me keep a positive attitude throughout the day.

Beverley that was a great resource!
But then I do enjoy all your resources.
I am working on a couple of infographics for my websites. Being so visual, myself, I just love doing them. I think using infographics on a website, along with videos and images helps to break the written content up and keeps people on your website longer and helps with return visitors. I also find that it is an excellent way to repurpose content.
Looking forward to viewing your new infographic!

Thanks Judith
I love them. You know I really dislike it when I see messy graphics and infographics are great for me because you can put a lot of graphics together in a compact space. They just really suit my type of creativity. Also because I've tried doing three for other people it's broadened my experience.

What an excellent way of stabilizing authorship by utilizing an area of niches I wasn't even considering!. Another low cost to no cost resource to show you are offering "Quality Content" on your respective niche. Making it fun to read and learn about it, oh now that's good!.
