Why High Conversion Graphic Design Is Necessary

By Bob Smiley


A large number of graphic design professionals, commercial artists and website designers highlight the appearance, features and also the layout of their jobs when presenting themselves to prospective customers. Although artistry, ease of navigation and total appearance are vital, designers and their clients should also consider the conversion rates of the content and graphics.

If the end goal is for a particular logo, design, website or infographic to attract more customers and increase the amount of money a given business is making, designers who create high conversion graphics should be in high demand.

The term "high conversion" must be clearly understood. Before you can understand the importance of a high conversion graphic, you have to be familiar with conversion rates.

When the term "conversion rate" is used by internet marketers, it refers to the proportion of clicks that a particular online link, image, artwork or ad copy representing a certain business generates. In simpler terms, it is the percentage of the individuals who see the image or ad copy online and then visit the website of the business or the page that the link leads to. When the term conversion rate is used in web design, it refers to the percentage of the visitors who purchase a product or service on the site.

To a local business, conversion is everything. What Internet marketers know that many graphic designers and business owners don't know is that conversion rates are everything. Conversion rates measure the percentage of people who see something representing a business (like a logo or a link) and take action as a result. While having an easily navigable site and friendly, appealing graphics are important, they're really all in the service of increasing a business's conversion rate.

When companies search for quality graphic design, they are usually on the lookout for one that will effectively communicate the services that they offer or convey a particular message to prospective customers. It is sensible to consider these areas but it is more practical to think about the importance of conversion rates.

When you want to make your projections, you have to understand that it is not possible to know in advance what the conversion rate will be. However, you can obtain information about conversion rates for general graphic design categories. Research findings show that emotional images are very effective when you want viewers to take action based on what they see.

It's also possible to do a certain amount of research on the conversion rates of particular designs. A business could try out a potential new ad or web image via email first and look at the amount of traffic it brings in. It can also ask any potential graphic designer it's considering working with to provide information about the conversion rates of logos, graphics or other web pages he or she has created in the past.

It is advisable to look at previous or potential conversion rates when hiring a designer because it will enable your business perform better in either online or offline marketing. Additionally, excellent designs and pages help to increase the company's reputation and credibility. However, for businesses that want to remain on top, it is vital to ensure that their sites, content as well as graphic design has the capacity to make real customers out of the visitors that view and read these features.
