In today's age, with the significant rise of social media in recent years, we all have a lot of information at our fingertips every day.
That is why, in order for a user browsing the Internet to decide to click on your content (and consequently on your website), you must take care of the small details that make you stand out from the rest of the businesses in your professional activity.
One of those details, and the one I want to talk to you about today, is creating unique, quality images that attract the attention of the audience you want to target.
Yes, you read that right. I said create.

What is Canva?
Canva is a completely online tool with which you can design practically any type of graphics you can think of for your website or blog.
All of this in a very intuitive way and obtaining final results that are neat and have a very professional appearance.
Of the ones I have tried, it is without a doubt the most powerful tool I have found for carrying out this type of task (obviously, not counting the graphic design programs you can install on your computer).
Its possibilities are enormous, offering you both elegant and professional predefined designs and giving you the option to design everything from scratch using its repository of images, graphics, illustrations, fonts, etc.
As if this were not enough, Canva also allows you to upload images or any type of graphic element from your computer (that you have made yourself or that you have acquired, for example, from the best free or paid image banks ) so that the resulting design can be even more personalized if possible.
What kind of images can I create with Canva?
As I mentioned before, with Canva you can create any type of graphic element you need for your online business.
Below is a detailed list of everything you can do on this platform:
1. Social media graphics (Facebook and Twitter cover images, Instagram or Tumblr images, Google Plus images, YouTube thumbnails and covers, Facebook Ads, etc.).
2. A4 and US size cards .
3. Covers for magazines, ebooks, CDs, etc.
4. Wallpapers .
5. Infographics and images for your blog articles.
6. Business cards, advertising flyers, posters, gift cards, restaurant menu cards and practically any corporate image element you can think of.
7. Postcards, cards and invitations for events (weddings, birthdays, etc.)
8. Ad design .
In the image below I leave you a screenshot of all the possibilities you have (to which you should add the option of making designs of any type with the specific dimensions you want).
