Infographic Outreach
Publishing a well-designed data visual and offering it to other sites to republish, on condition that the embed credits and links back to your original.
Analogy Mental model
Drawing a beautiful illustrated map and giving it to every guesthouse in town, with your café's address printed in the corner.
In practice What you actually do
Generate an embed snippet beneath the graphic, a ready-made block of markup containing a link to your source page, so a publisher can copy, paste, and publish. Keep the underlying dataset available for anyone who wants to verify or extend the visual.
Where people get burned Pitfalls
Image-only links pass less value than in-body text links. Interactive charts and downloadable datasets earn both the link and the citation, which is the outcome you actually want.
