“In an endless jungle of websites with text-based content, a beautiful image with a lot of space and colour can be like walking into a clearing. It’s a relief.”

– David McCandless

Curious; did this image catch your attention? The selection of an image can make or break your audience engagement.

A study carried out by PR News found:

“online content with good images get 94% more views than those without.”

A story image can provoke emotions or conjure up dreams simply by using a well-composed photo.

Readers engage first by consuming the image in a blink of an eye. Next, they decide just as fast as to whether they will continue reading.

Although well-written articles are essential, well-chosen images can send your stories soaring.

How do you capture the perfect image?
