What are your best tactics for promoting an infographic?
-
What tactics have you found to be effective in promoting an interesting infographic that you have created?
-
One thing I found works well is to engage with as many of the people you want to use the infographic as possible before you contact them with the image.
I try and connect with them on Twitter, leave a comment on a blog post (with a link to my twitter rather than my website so it does not look like I am trying to spam the blog) or help them in some way.
Along the help lines I have found an email telling them about a broken link or an error on their site is a good way to get their attention. Then when they say thank you I reply with a question about their work, ask for their advice on something related to what they do and mention I am putting together the graphic, if possible I incorporate the information they have given me into the infographic and let them know.
Then when the infographic is ready to send I let them have an advanced copy along with any data used to produce the statistics in it.
In my mind I came up with these ideas but I am sure the truth is more along the lines of the day I spent going through the posts in the link Keri has been kind enough to post, it may take a while to read but it is full of great information.
I think all the information and tips boil down to give the audience something they want and give them a reason to take it from you.
I hope that makes sense

Infographic embed code: Yah or Nah?
Friends, am ready to launch an infographic campaign for a client and received an email from a resource I consider very reliable that said, "don't include an embed code on the webpage that is hosting the graphic. That's being seen as bad practice by Google these days." I responded with, "Say what?" Can anyone confirm or deny that affixing embed code to an "infographic page" is indeed vile? Thanks!
