What do you get when you link attention with economic value creation? Attentionomics, which Steve Rubelsays is a combination of infinite content options (space) but finite attention (time). Where is Einstein when you need him?

Rubel is EVP/Global Strategy and Insights for Edelman - the world's largest independent public relations firm. He starts by looking at Twitter. They have a staggering 110 million tweets a day and it’s growing. But the problem is that each tweet decays almost as soon as it is released. There are 71% of tweets that get no response. 6% get retweeted and 23% get an @ reply. Some 92% of all retweets and 97% of replies occur within the first 60 minutes, according to Sysomos.

We've said it before and it is more true than ever: visual content is a powerful means for engaging visitors and generating website traffic and shares.

However, most of us are not designers and, many of us, struggle with anything creative. But even if your organization can hire creative staff or pay for freelance graphic design, it is a time-consuming process.

Everyone loves images. Real-world experience shows it and statistics confirm it. Better yet, people love to share visual content. And infographics offer powerful visual content.

We are visual creatures and we love to look at things and we love to watch. This is why video, for example, is increasingly popular in marketing. In fact, this year video content will represent 74% of all internet traffic. And four times as many consumers say they would rather watch a video about a product than to read about it.

Great content creation is no walk in the park, but not every great piece of content gets shared. So put your efforts into content types that do.

Every marketer and business owner that creates content knows that if it doesn't get found and then shared, it simply exists. If your content is drawing traffic or creating traffic, you need to change your approach. But it may not be the quality of your work - just the nature of your content type.
