We asked Randy Krum, Founder and President of InfoNewt, an infographic
design company, and editor of the Cool Infographics website, to share some
of his insights from working with and reviewing infographics.
Don't be fooled by infographic naysayers. Yes there are BAD infographics, yet when I tracked the top 10 for my 125,000 views on Scoopit Infographics owned more than half of almost every feed's top 10. Translation - we need to create infographics and other forms of data visualization.
Here are 3 great tips from an Infographic design pro:
* Keep It Clear.
* Be Iconic.
* Know the rules.
Come to think of it those tips apply to pretty much anything we lucky few Internet marketers do :). M
If 8 tips weren't enough, here are 3 more.

Marty (@Scenttrail) Review
I used Piktochart yesterday to create an infographic to support my 5 Easy Email Marketing Tips (http://sco.lt/7T6pTF ). I am NOT a graphic designer, but I found Piktochart helped me think like one.
Creation of my first "infographic", and I put infographic in quotes not to offend any true infographic pro, took about two hours. Piktochart's User Interface is excellent, intuitive and drag and drop friendly.
At first I tried to do everything IN Piktochart. Then I noticed they have a robust import tool so I created a draft in the tool, took a screen shot, sized the screen shot up to their 600 x 400 and worked on it in photoshop.
Piktochart, if you are reading this, you may want to make an export tool that is as easy to use as your import tool. If I could export a block at a time it would be ideal. Even when I was finished and published I manipulated some spacing of the infographic by selecting and moving blocks in Photoshop.
The tool comes complete with icons like the bulls eye and pad. I couldn't understand how to color my fonts (their styling options seem to not come up the way they are supposed too) so I added the text color in Photoshop and important the resulting block overlaying what was there.
My process made the graphic HEAVY since I had 2 copies of everything, so it would be great to export, work on a block in Photoshop, import it back in and then overlay on a blank canvas. The only way I can see to do that now is start over.
Creating visual support for our blog posts is so important Piktochart is a great new tool for any content marketer / blogger. Interesting to note my infographic of 5 Easy Email Tips got 3x the views and shares of my written Scoop. We know the visual marketing revolution is upon us, so getting as good as someone like Mark Smiciklas (http://www.intersectionconsulting.com/ ).
Piktochart is a great and timely tool! Highly recommended. Marty
A guided tour into Piktochart by a no-designer. You can't help but like the story behind the infographic.

Infographics for the masses. Infogr is my favorite.
Communicating visually can be an effective means of explaining complex concepts or relaying loads of information in an easily digestible manner. For those who don't have graphic design skills, no worries. Review of five services that help level the playing field by making it simple for the masses to create infographics. Each of these tools have their own advantage but you should be able to find one that fits your needs. Just make sure that what you're communicating has a real takeaway and can benefit from some visuals.
