Simplifying Design for Bloggers newsletter: A weekly dose of all things Canva to go from blog to business.
When creating our business plan for Simplifying DIY Design, we knew that once we got a reader to our site, our avatar-driven content and lead magnets would easily get them on our email list.
Until our SEO efforts with Google would kick in, we decided to focus on a traffic source we were VERY familiar with as consumers: Pinterest.
Turns out, Pinterest was the fastest way to get traffic to our blog.
In this week's blog post, we're sharing the benefits of creating multiple pins for your blog, along with key elements of a click-worthy pin design

🎨 CANVA DESIGN TIP
If you have any photos where the placement of an object or person makes it challenging to use, Magic Grab will be your go-to tool.
Canva's Magic Grab turns your photos into a completely editable design by separating the subject or subjects from the background.
With this tool, you can easily edit, reposition, or resize the subject of your photo with ease.
Check out last week's DIY Design Lab to see Canva's Magic Grab in action!
