Today, your information will go unnoticed among the nearly 6.000 tweets per second. But Twitter is just an example. The same happens in all social networks. If you want your message to get across, the best thing to do is to post it with a well-designed image.
As you know, the image has become the most used communication element in recent years in all social networks. Proof of this is that currently, Instagram is the platform that most grows every year. Therefore, companies and, in general, the users of these social networks, have had to reinvent themselves to ensure that messages reach their audience.

Unifying the color of the background will contrast with the text you want to highlight. In the editor, you will find different techniques to do it with a variety of results and nuances. The two simplest to apply are:
Using different forms to place your texts helps to capture the public's attention so that the image is displaced in the background. It is a very effective way to highlight the message and that the words are read clearly. You can play putting the background of the shape of a color that is striking and is present in the background image to be combined. But always, make sure they are the same color.
The blur effect consists basically of the image being blurred, this allows it to be perceived but does not remove prominence to the text. The icons are especially good with this type of effect, also highlight the logo of your company. Applying it is as simple as going to the filters tab and clicking.
