When it comes to marketing a site online, you need to have something that is link worthy. Link worthy is when something is so cool that people will link to it just because, it’s so cool.

A lot of times well written content on an interesting subject is enough to do this. But there are times in life that the product being sold is just not that interesting. It doesn’t matter how many articles you right, people are just not going to link to them.

This calls for a different approach and it is one we are working on now with a silicone wristband site we have. We hired a couple writers however, it didn’t take long for all the articles to start looking the same and it was rare for anyone to link to the articles.

In the past I’ve run across graphic designs that were just so cool that I linked to them. This got me to thinking about the silicone wristbands as well as the fact that none of the competition had tried this approach yet.

I’ve got some graphic designers in-house I am going to use and see how things work how.

Below are the original images we have to work with, these are all silicone wristband images and are very boring however, they are mixed in with images that I found online that are not boring to give you an idea of what I am talking about.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, if you’re a designer then you have to be able to manipulate photos.

The term graphic design can refer to a number of artistic and professional jobs which focus on visual communication and presentation. Various methods are used to create and combine symbols, images and/or words to create a visual idea and message.

A graphic designer uses typography, visual arts and page layout techniques to produce the final result. Graphic design often refers to both the process (designing) by which the communication is created and the products (designs) which are generated.

Common uses of graphic design include magazines, advertisements, product packaging and web design. For example, a product package might include a logo or other artwork, organized text and pure design elements such as shapes and color which unify the piece. Composition is one of the most important features of graphic design especially when using pre-existing materials or diverse elements.

All that being said I found some phots from Josh Sommers who is a very good photo manipulation artist and has even done work for companies like playboy. Checkout some of his work below.

I’ve got a silicone wristband website that has been giving me fits. How many articles and how much information can someone come up with about a silicone wristband.

There are limits to what one can write about and to make it worst I’m no writer.

However, all the shoe manufactures have given me an idea for my silicone wristband problems.

Instead of writing content to place on my silicone wristband blog, I’m going to just start putting cool graphic designs.

It’s a lot more fun to look at cool designs than it is to read lots of text.
