requirement in one sentence.
1. Create Infographics for
your Target Audience
The infographics with the
most traction, most
attention, and most
virality, are ones that
meet your target
audience right where
they want it most.
o  Made	
  for	
  the	
  Startup	
  
audience/
entrepreneurs/	
  
wantreprneurs	
  
o  Made	
  an	
  infographic	
  
on	
  the	
  most	
  debated	
  
topic	
  to	
  give	
  the	
  
audience	
  a	
  
framework	
  of	
  
star?ng	
  up	
  	
  
2. Keep it simple
and to the point
Try to break down your
message into one,
strong sentence. From
here, you can use
data to support what
you're trying to say.
o  Short	
  and	
  Crisp	
  headings	
  and	
  
subheadings.	
  
o  Evolu?on	
  shown	
  through	
  a	
  simple	
  
?meline	
  	
  
3. Let the data
tell the story
For data to communicate
effectively with its intended
target audience it must
compelling and competent.
The user should gain
something at the end of the
infographic.
o  Infographic	
  made	
  
during	
  the	
  Digital	
  India	
  
launch.	
  	
  
o  The	
  need	
  of	
  the	
  hour	
  
was	
  to	
  understand	
  the	
  
Digital	
  India	
  Ini?a?ve	
  
and	
  this	
  was	
  achieved	
  
through	
  a	
  detailed	
  
infographic	
  
4. Use concrete
visual metaphors
Creative visual
metaphors help the
user to understand
the infographic better
and makes the
infographic look
visually appealing
Pictographically	
  represen?ng	
  key	
  
elements	
  of	
  the	
  infographic:	
  
o  The	
  Road	
  Ahead	
  for	
  Energy	
  
o  3D	
  Technology	
  
o  Renewable	
  Energy	
  
o  Energy	
  Produc?on	
  
5. Add spaces
in the infographic
White spaces allow your eye movements to
capture essential elements and enables a user
for a faster read.
6. Structure Matters
A	
  successfully	
  informa?ve	
  
graphic	
  relies	
  upon	
  a	
  strong,	
  
clear	
  structure.	
  The	
  underlying	
  
structure	
  determines	
  the	
  
organiza?on	
  of	
  the	
  data,	
  
controls	
  the	
  flow	
  of	
  the	
  
narra?ve	
  and	
  ensures	
  the	
  
integrity	
  of	
  the	
  data	
  remains	
  
intact.	
  
The	
  infographic	
  has	
  been	
  
structured	
  to	
  show	
  the	
  
need	
  of	
  high-­‐tech,	
  its	
  
market	
  segments,	
  the	
  
requirements	
  of	
  the	
  
industry,	
  key	
  challenges	
  
and	
  the	
  3D	
  road	
  to	
  high-­‐
tech	
  summing	
  up	
  the	
  en?re	
  
high-­‐tech	
  concept.	
  
7. Make it a
manageable
length and size
o Infographics	
  are	
  
supposed	
  to	
  be	
  big	
  but	
  
if	
  you	
  go	
  too	
  big,	
  you’ll	
  
start	
  losing	
  the	
  
interest	
  of	
  your	
  
audience.	
  
o All	
  infographics	
  don’t	
  
have	
  to	
  be	
  ver?cal	
  
8. Headlines makes the
best 1st impression
•  The infographic doesn’t get any attention if it
doesn’t have a great headline.
•  Good headlines grab a user’s attention and are
short enough to understand in a glance.
