Don't be fooled by infographic naysayers. Yes there are BAD infographics, yet when I tracked the top 10 for my 125,000 views on Scoopit Infographics owned more than half of almost every feed's top 10. Translation - we need to create infographics and other forms of data visualization.

Here are 3 great tips from an Infographic design pro:

* Keep It Clear.
* Be Iconic.
* Know the rules.

Come to think of it those tips apply to pretty much anything we lucky few Internet marketers do :). M
