Well-designed visuals are the key to achieving content marketing excellence. According to BuzzSumo, on social media platforms, visual content boosts engagement – 2.3 times more than posts without visuals on Facebook and 1.5 times more for tweets.

Content Marketing Institute contributor Alina Valyaeva has published an article highlighting nine visual content options that may help you improve your content marketing performance.
