Visual Content
Visual content has become a growing trend in the
world of digital. As user preference for visual over written content becomes
more apparent, businesses are looking to find new
ways to improve the user experience. So, if you want
to deepen your engagement with your
target audience, you want to include visual content in
your marketing.
In today's digital marketing landscape, a wide variety of
media are considered visual content, including
images, infographics, memes, and videos. They are used to spark feeling,
drive traffic and boost engagement.
For example, “Publishers who use infographics grow their web traffic an average
of 12% more than those who don’t.”
Many businesses have moved towards visual
content to help set themselves apart from all the written content that
gets lost in the digital space - 27,000,000 pieces of
content are shared every single day. You can imagine why readers have become so overwhelmed by such
information overload.
Because “90% of information transmitted to
the brain is visual”, it's important for brands to recognize the important role that visual plays in purchasing decisions.
