2. Sign up with Google, Facebook, or email. If you choose to sign up with Google or Facebook, simply log in to your account when asked to do so. If you wish to sign up with your email address, enter the email and your desired password, then hit the Sign up button.

Give your projects a sense of structure by using text elements with predefined styles and a typographic hierarchy. This will allow your audience to navigate and understand your ideas more effectively.

To add text:

1. From the project editor, click on the Add text button on the left-side toolbar.
2. Choose a text element, then drag and drop it onto the canvas.

These are the available text element options:

• Title: Used as a primary heading to name the project.
• Subtitle: Used as a secondary heading to name sub-sections in your project.
• Body text: Usually the most-read text element on the page. Make sure to derive other text element sizes from the body text size.
• Caption text: Highlights the essence of a chart or map. Captions can be written in just a few words or a few sentences. Keep it short to make it most effective.
• Quote: A reproduction of what another person said or wrote. For example, use quotes to convey customer reviews.
• Facts & figures and Centered fact and figure: Both elements are text-based charts with icons. Best used to highlight interesting facts.
• Table chart: A great option for displaying data with both textual and numeric columns. Read more about it here.

To undo or redo any edits in your project, simply use the arrow buttons in the toolbar just above your project. The left arrow allows you to undo and revert to a previous version of your project. The right arrow allows you to redo any edits. You can click the arrows several times to go back to where you started or to where you finished. You can also use keyboard controls ⌘ + Z (on Mac) or Ctrl + Z (on Windows) to undo.

Note: Remember that after exiting or closing the project editor, the action history will be lost (unless you have a business, team, or enterprise account) If you have started your project by clicking on the Responsive web and mobile layouts shortcut, after you delete a chart, map, text field, or any other object from your report, a message will appear in its place allowing you to undo the last action. No other action history is available when working with Responsive web and mobile layouts!

Word clouds are used to get immediate insights into the most important words or terms in your data. You’ll often find them on websites or blogs flagging top keywords or tag usage for aesthetic reasons. For example, tag clouds can help you visualize how customers feel about your products. 

Another great use for a word cloud is to summarize user surveys for a client. If consumers are given a list of words to describe their feelings towards a service or product, a word cloud can quickly summarize those responses, ranking the most selected words with the largest text. This data can easily start a conversation with your client or user’s impressions of their brand or product.

When sharing results from a lot of technical data, word clouds help viewers understand the results quickly even if they don’t have a mastery of the data. 

Be aware that counting results isn’t always comparing results. Avoid including words like “the”, “and”, and “but” in word clouds as they don’t offer any insight into data. Also, be careful not to use too much color or too many fonts. The simpler the design, the easier it is to deliver an effective and engaging message.

You can create a word cloud in 5 easy steps:

1. Join Infogram to make your own tag cloud design.
2. Select a word cloud chart type.
3. Upload or paste your data.
4. Customize colors, fonts, and text orientation.
5. Download your Word cloud or embed it on your website.

Even though they are simple and easy to understand, you should keep a few things in mind when using word clouds:

• Long words are emphasized over short words.
• Tags in the middle of the cloud attract more user attention than tags near the borders.
• Avoid using too many words. Word clouds can take up a lot of space.

A word cloud is a visual representation of text data, where the size of each word indicates its frequency or importance. You can use word clouds to quickly convey key themes or ideas from your data, making it easier for your audience to grasp the main points without diving into the details.

Word clouds are great for various settings, such as:

• Marketing: Visualizing customer feedback or sentiment about a product.
• Education: Summarizing student survey results or key topics from a lesson.
• Journalism: Highlighting important themes from interviews or articles.
• Consulting: Presenting insights from client feedback or industry trends.

Creating a word cloud is simple! Follow these steps:

2. Choose the word cloud chart type.
3. Upload or paste your text data.
4. Customize the design with colors and fonts.

Here are some tips to enhance your word cloud:

• Focus on keywords: Use impactful words that convey your message.
• Limit the word count: Too many words can clutter the design. Aim for clarity.
• Consider word placement: Words in the center attract more attention, so place your key terms there.
• Simplify the design: Use a few colors and fonts to keep it clean and readable.

• Including stop words: Avoid using common words like "the," "and," or "but" as they don’t add value.
• Overcomplicating the design: Too many colors or fonts can confuse your audience. Stick to a simple style.
• Using long words: Longer words may overshadow important shorter ones, so balance your choices.

Once you've designed your word cloud in Infogram, you can easily share it by:

• Embedding it: Use the embed code provided by Infogram to display your word cloud on your website or blog.

To enhance your word cloud:

1. In the project editor, click on the “Add text” button on the left toolbar.
