What is an infographic

Infographics are visual representations of information, data, or knowledge. They have become very popular on the Internet as these charts allow us to grasp and understand difficult concepts quickly. Our brain is specially designed for visual analysis combining images with data. Visualizations help transmit knowledge more effectively than if we simply used text and numbers so that they can be very useful.

Infographics

A few years ago, infographic creation was limited to academics, companies, and government institutions, who had access to large amounts of data and graphic designers. With the advent of free web applications and online data publishing, it is now possible for everyone to create beautiful infographics.

Below you will find some of the useful tools that can be used for this purpose.

Piktochart

Piktochart is a web application that allows you to create beautiful infographics from templates, images, and objects that are added with a simple drag and drop. It allows you to customize colors and fonts in just one click, being very easy for beginners to use. It is also possible to export the creation as an image to embed the infographic on a web page or blog. It offers eight templates in its free version and offers more than 600 in its payment option. Piktochart is certainly one of the most useful options found on the Internet.
