Process infographics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A process infographic works best when you want to break down the steps in a process or give readers a quick overview of how something works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The layout should make it easy to move from one step to the next. Most process infographics use a simple top-to-bottom or left-to-right flow, with numbered steps to guide readers through the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, this <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/infographics\/process\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">process infographic template<\/a> uses a different color for the headers of each step. Notice how the colors of numbered icons on the right side of the infographic correspond with the headers. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/infographics\/creating-an-infographic-outline-from-scratch-a981d468-684f-4495-863d-177ab2e4e671\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/11\/image22.png\" alt=\"process infographic template\" class=\"wp-image-16646\" width=\"500\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/infographics\/creating-an-infographic-outline-from-scratch-a981d468-684f-4495-863d-177ab2e4e671\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><button class=\"btn-cta\"><b>EDIT THIS INFOGRAPHIC TEMPLATE<\/b><\/button><\/a><\/center>&nbsp;\n\n\n\n<p>To help your information flow, use directional cues like arrows, lines and other shapes that point the eyes in a certain direction. This process infographic template uses arrows to visualize the order of each step. It\u2019s a simple format you can use to summarize a process in a presentation or video.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/infographics\/inbound-marketing-e9be63b4-cef1-4333-bab0-dd04759c7ad9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2016\/11\/image25.png\" alt=\"Inbound Marketing Flowchart Infographic Template\" class=\"wp-image-16647\" width=\"700\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<center><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/infographics\/inbound-marketing-e9be63b4-cef1-4333-bab0-dd04759c7ad9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><button class=\"btn-cta\"><b>EDIT THIS INFOGRAPHIC TEMPLATE<\/b><\/button><\/a><\/center>&nbsp;\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have many steps to fit into one process infographic, try using a \u201csnake\u201d layout.

For example, if you\u2019re showing data, a statistical infographic works best. Want to explain steps in a process? A process infographic does the trick. There are also timeline infographics for showing events over time and comparison ones for weighing options side by side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Picking the right type helps make your message clearer and way more engaging\u2014especially when you&#8217;re working with complex info.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide will explain what are the types of infographics, and what the best infographic to use&nbsp;is depending on your information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tN8_85gKOTc\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><br><button class=\"btn-cta\" data-darkreader-inline-color=\"\" data-darkreader-inline-boxshadow=\"\" data-darkreader-inline-bgimage=\"\" data-darkreader-inline-bgcolor=\"\"><b>TRY VENNGAGE<\/b><\/button><\/center>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What type of information is best suited for infographics?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Infographics are a great way to take complex information and make it easier to swallow. Here&#8217;s the kind of information infographics are particularly good at explaining:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Quantitative data:<\/strong> Numbers, percentages and statistics come alive in infographics through charts, graphs and icons. Infographics can easily represent trends, comparisons and relationships between numbers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Geographical data:<\/strong> Maps are a natural fit for infographics. They can show things like population distribution, resource allocation or migration patterns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Processes:<\/strong> Infographics can break down complex processes into clear steps using visuals and concise text. This can be helpful for instructions, tutorials or workflows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Comparisons:<\/strong> Infographics can effectively showcase differences and similarities between things. This can be done through side-by-side comparisons, timelines or contrasting visuals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lists:<\/strong> Simple lists can be enhanced with icons and illustrations in an infographic, making them more engaging and memorable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>But how do you pick the right infographic for your information? Long story short: it depends on the goal of your infographic and the type of information you\u2019re visualizing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>What are the best infographics for marketers?<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marketers use infographics to repurpose their text content into engaging visuals.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, marketers can use information infographics to summarize key points from a blog post:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2019\/01\/informational-infographic-example.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1283\" height=\"741\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2019\/01\/informational-infographic-example.jpeg\" alt=\"informational infographic example\" class=\"wp-image-35312\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>In fact, that&#8217;s exactly how Lease Ref used Venngage to<strong> increase their blog traffic and online visibility<\/strong>.
