All right back with another video. And this time, we will be looking at how to create images from your content marketing articles. So how to repurpose your articles into images. For me, there are three or four basic image types that you can create. And let's get right into it. The first tool that I want to talk about is Canva.
If you've not heard about it in the content marketing world, or the digital marketing world, you must have been living under some sort of rock because it's everywhere. And obviously, there are imitators such as Photoshop and PicMonkey, and other web services of that nature, other web tool tools, but Canva is the Eau de the original and it keeps getting better and better. In terms of social media posts, what I recommend is create images specific to each platform. So specific images Just for Tumblr specific images for Instagram, and then use those images, share them around, get them popular, try to get them go viral. And then backlink all of those to your original article to your blog or to your website. There basically no other reason why you would want to create additional content then to add those backlinks, so it would get traffic back to you.
The next tool that I want to talk about and obviously Canva is simply gorgeous and easy to use drag and drop is Adobe Spark and being an Adobe product, obviously, it's great, their templates are pretty much amazing and they're stunning. It does allow you to create video or images or pages and using the images section. You get to select different types of templates, you can easily swap out the images with your own or stock images, you can pop up the fonts, text and everything. And there is no watermark, you can easily download these images, and they are great. Now the second type of image, the first two tools are a bit more generalistic. Being able to create a lot of different types of images.
I recommend using specific specific specialized tools. For example, Instagram for infographics hates a free tool, but it does have some limitations. It does have paid features, if you want to get more features or if you feel that you do want to pay for it for more options. Instagram is a good option and you can download these infographics and better see You can also embed them and allow other people to embed these little infographics, obviously linking back to your original article as often as you can. Now the second tool in the infographics game is ven gage. And again, it allows you to create beautiful charts and maps and infographics.
It's a more technical tool, but it does work well and you can download the results for sharing on social media. Now the next type of image that I like to create for every single content marketing article that I create is this note, no tog Rafi and it allows you to add a quote or a text and then simply through the magic of templates. You can convert it into these absolutely gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous images that you can easily publish share directly from the app or save as an image for sharing later. As you can see at the bottom, there are a lot of them. And these are templates meaning once you select one type, it applies the effects but going up and down, it preserves that template that switches out the colors of it. So if you enjoy how this looks, but you don't like the color, you can easily change it.
And better yet, you can have multiple versions of the same note of the same quote of the same text, multiple versions for multiple platforms in different colors styles in order to test out which one works Better has always tried to add your link towards your original article so you do get traffic from it. A similar to in that same vein is recite, and this allows you to add a little text here. And then using these templates at the bottom, you can easily create a file an image that you can share on social media. There are lots of different types, some better than others. Of course, there is a little let's call it watermark at the bottom, but it's pretty small and most people won't notice it or it won't bother them. The last tool in the lead create text or quotes on images section is Pablo by buffer and I enjoy this probably the most out of These tools, since it's run by buffer, it's a very clean design.
It's easy to use. There are templates, but they're not in your way. You can use stock images, you can search, you can shuffle the images, you can upload your own image, you can share and download. You can add logos, captions, there are different quotes. And right within the web service online tool itself, you can modify the type of filter that gets applied to the back to the image itself. There is no watermark, you can easily download it for yourself and use it for social media.
It tells you what type of size what size the image will be. So Pablo by buffer again, a great great online tool for creation for the future. Creation of text over images. Now, the last tool that I want to talk about is jiffy. This is mostly a search engine for gifts. And as you can see, right on the home screen on the homepage, once you hover over an image it plays so you can watch a preview of it.
It does have tags for each one. So you can easily search for whatever you would want to use for your specific article topic. And then once you have these, you can download them, you can embed them, you can share them on social media. And as always, don't forget to use links to get traffic back to your original Content Marketing article. So this video was all about how to transform your original blog article into an image. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video.
