Though Images aren't a major source for ranking yet it matters a lot,It can take over your Readers and impress them,This makes them getting back to your site again and again.
Creating a official image Gives a loyalty as well as it makes a sense of copyrighted image.
WHAT ARE OFFICIAL IMAGES??
official images are your signature images,you didn't get what I meant right?In simple words to say these are images with your logo embedded In the image,For instance:
"In association with: xyz , Exclusively on :xyz " (xyz represents your blog's logo,title etc...)
Making such types of images Also Gives you a promotion or even publicity when someone shares it. ;)
Using such types of images has great advantages such as:
1.Seems to be like a copyrighted image
2.No one can Steal and put it on their blog if they do so You are promoted (Cool right?!)
3.By creating own images you won't be penalized by search engines
4.Images are large sized
HOW TO MAKE SUCH TYPES OF IMAGES?
Stepping down to this you've two ways of making images:
1.Alter other images;
2.Completely make your own image
Going through the second way is the best but it consumes much of your time,but it even doesn't mean that you can't make it! What I do and recommend is to make your own images for small post and alter images for long post,by this you can spare same time on both type of posts!!
Now Let's get started
Generally when we think of creating images or edit images,Photo-Shop is the first that gets flashed in our mind,But now the problem is "If we ain't good at photo-shop" then?? friends there's nothing need to worry here,We are going to use an online tool which is actually used for creating info-graphics but let's use it for images !!
=> Head on to this Link.
This is a famous website for creating images,info-graphics,cards headers and much more...
What all you need to do is just create an account there which hardly takes upto 5 mins
=>As soon as you get started with the account,Click on "Facebook post".Generally a blog post image will be in the resolution (940*788)px
At the sidebar you can see multi-options such as ,Search,Layout,Background,text etc....
Here you can select anything i.e layout or background for the base,I prefer background rather than layout.
Click on background and select your color.Now continue like as you wish adding texts,style.
HOW TO MERGE BLOG LOGO WITH THE IMAGE?
Now here Comes the catch,as previously we discussed that keeping logo with image had many benefits,now the question is how do I merge the logo??
Recommended : STRATEGIES FOR DESIGNING A TOP-CLASS LOGO .
Open a new-tab upload your logo (uploads>Upload your own images) and change the background of the logo to the background colour of the image,when you do this and merge your image it'll be like just a piece of logo is uploaded.
Now after you change the background of logo save it to your disk and go back to the image,There upload the logo whose background we changed now!
In Canva there's a option called drag and drop,Perform that action and drop the logo into the image,
Now the problem is that the logo seems too big to fit in the image,For this resize the image and place it in a corner but remember that it should be noticeable.
See the example below.
This Is what I had previously did for one of my sponsored post,To promote I've made this type of image that we discussed still now.
HOW TO ALTER IMAGES WITH LOGO:
This is a subsidiary version of the above trick.here you just need to download an image from google,Change it's background in canva or if you wish you can even do it in Photo Shop:

FEW LAST WORDS:
