There are many sites on the Internet where we can create custom images to use on our favorite social platforms: here are the best ones
Nowadays, communication on social media is essential. Interacting successfully on these platforms is not easy. Also because the communication patterns used on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are not the same as those we use in everyday conversations.
In social networks a beautiful image, supported by videos, GIFs or emoticons is as important as the content. Images, more than any other multimedia content, can be used to give strength and appeal to our written concepts. To reinforce the message we want to share with friends and followers, it is also necessary to use beautiful, funny or creative photos. To avoid having to use those already present online and to be more original we can also create images. But how can we do this if we are not very familiar with editing and programs like Photoshop? Simple, just use one of these websites.
Stencil
Stencil is a very simple site to use. We can upload a photo or search for one from the various categories on the portal and then insert a catch phrase within the shot. It is the right site to create images suitable for Facebook. The only flaw of Stencil is the price. The free version is in fact poor in options and offers only 10 photos per month, while the monthly subscription costs almost $9.
Pablo
If the price of Stencil seems excessive we can always use the Pablo platform. This site offers us an unlimited and free plan of photos to create per month. It has a gallery of over 60 thousand photos that we can edit with various tools and in a very easy way.
Snappa
Pablo and Stencil are ideal for creating images to publish on Facebook. Snappa on the other hand is a site that allows us to create images a bit for every social platform. From our blog to YouTube covers. Snappa also has two versions, one free and one subscription ($10 per month). The good news is that the non-subscription site offers plenty of features.
Recite
This is a site for true creatives. We won’t just have to choose the photo or upload it and then edit it. We’ll be able to create our own theme that no one will be able to replicate. With Recite we will create unique multimedia content to be used especially on our blog. The portal also allows you to create images for smartphones.
Canva
Canva is one of the most widely used photo editing and design sites. The site is perfect if we are true online communicators because it has layouts suitable for every platform. From Pinterest to Facebook, via Instagram, Twitter or YouTube. It has lots of templates and tools and the free plan is quite rich.
