The visual aspect<\/strong> of a site or any image is important insofar as the Internet user is more attracted by a photo than by a text. So if you want to boost your visibility<\/strong> on the web, creating nice visuals can be a good idea.<\/p>\n

However, not everyone has the skills or the means to make attractive visuals<\/strong> on some software. That’s why Canva<\/strong> is the answer to this problem!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Canva, what is it?<\/h2>\n

Canva is a site that was launched in 2012. It offers visuals as templates to allow users to customize them with certain tools.<\/strong> These also allow one to create a fully customized<\/strong> design.<\/p>\n

Thanks to this site, one can therefore create visuals of any form: posters, flyers, resumes, banners, invitation cards… It is therefore no longer essential to worry about the formats of such or such document. Moreover, the templates can help users find inspiration<\/strong> for their own visuals.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Where did the idea for Canva come from?<\/h2>\n

The Canva project started when Melanie Perkins was teaching graphic design to her students at the university. She realized that they were having trouble understanding the basics, so she partnered with Cliff Obrecht, the co-founder of Canva. Through this partnership, they published a book that explains graphic design more simply to improve student understanding. However, they realized that they could go much further with their project. That’s how they and co-founder Cameron Adams came up with the concept of Canva.<\/p>\n

The goal of Canva is to make it easy to create visuals<\/strong>. The creators wanted to make the world of graphic design accessible to everyone<\/strong>. To do this, the Canva team designed a fun<\/strong>, ergonomic,<\/strong> and educational<\/strong> site to meet this need.<\/p>\n

Presentation of the site<\/h2>\n

Following registration<\/h4>\n

When you log on to Canva for the first time, you’ll see a short 23-second tutorial that will help you understand how to create a design. After this tutorial, a practical exercise<\/strong> teaches you the basics of creating a visual. The goal will be to use the different tools to do the exercises proposed. This kind of tutorial is very fun, especially for users who are beginners.<\/p>\n

Now that you’ve learned the basics of Canva, you can get started with a design. When you’re on your dashboard, you can “create a design” by clicking on the button, but you can also click on one of the templates that appear at the top of the page.<\/p>\n

Organization and design of the site<\/h4>\n

Concerning the design of the site, we quickly realize that it is very colorful<\/strong>. Yet it remains simple<\/strong>, the color does not destabilize our understanding. Moreover, we see that the ergonomics<\/strong> of the site is extremely worked. A lot of thought has been given to guarantee a good experience<\/strong> for Internet users.<\/p>\n

If we dig deeper, we realize the complexity<\/strong> of the site since it has a lot of pages. However, it is quite easy to find what you are looking for, despite the fact that the site is in English.<\/p>\n

The site is also very interactive. There are many animations and aids. This method greatly facilitates the understanding of Internet users, since a playful site is always simpler and more pleasant to use.<\/p>\n

What Canva can do for you?<\/h2>\n

Why use it<\/h4>\n

If you regularly need pretty visuals for your social networks, your blog or even for professional use, Canva can really make your life easier<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Generally speaking, creating visuals is quite complex as it requires a lot of imagination, in addition to constant inspiration. As time goes by, you have to be able to renew yourself and find new techniques to make your illustrations unique. With Canva, you have a real source of inspiration<\/strong> at your fingertips.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The possibilities<\/h2>\n

Canva offers many templates that you can then customize as you see fit. This first method is simpler and faster since you modify an existing template. So you don’t waste time thinking about the visual of your illustration. However, this does not ensure you have an original design since the templates on Canva are accessible to all users.<\/p>\n

The second option is to create a visual from the tools provided by Canva. You can of course be inspired by some of the templates, without using them in their entirety.<\/p>\n

The goal will be to create a fully customized visual, therefore unique.<\/p>\n
