You’ve likely seen images with quotations popping up everywhere – on blog posts, Facebook updates, and so forth. If you’re trying to figure out how to incorporate them into your marketing plan, then you’ll enjoy this post. We’re going to explain the six types of quote images you can add into your content.
Statistics
Statistics can be compelling. If you’re trying to encourage people to do something, adding a statistic into the mix can boost your chances of success. Adding it as part of an image can go a step further and encourage more people to follow your advice and share your content.
So how do you find statistics? Google is a good place to start. Enter the keyword that you want to find a statistic about, and then statistics. For example, a search for exercise statistics will yield pages from the Fitness.gov and the CDC.gov.
What you are looking for is the original and most credible sources for your statistics. Many websites have probably used the most popular statistics. Don’t quote the ones that have compiled statistics, but work your way back to the original and quote them. You might find that the compiled version of a statistic is different from the original.
As for background images, you can go with something that represent what you would like a person reading your content to do. So for a statistic aimed at encouraging people to exercise, overlaying it onto a photo of people exercising would be a good fit.
