This is a good example of how you can use Infographics to build links to your website. You create step by step instructions that outlines how to solve common problem in your marketplace and syndicate it to the Web. Couple of destinations you definitely should consider when distributing your inforgraphics are:
- http://visual.ly/
- http://pinterest.com/
When somebody embeds your infographic using embed code from Pinterest and Visual.ly you get a backlink to your site. One of the other things that you may consider to get more links – is to re-purpose your content and turn your infographic into a video. You can easily create cool looking video by simply going over the steps or explaining the data in your infographics using presentation software like Prezi and then recording it using screen capture software like Camtasia. This way you get the best of two worlds – getting more links from essentially same piece of content and providing more options for people to engage with your content as some people prefer to read and some people prefer to watch.
