Tips for creating a meme
We all love that hit of dopa-meme that we get from a hilarious meme. But after all the time you've spent consuming them — and we know that is a lot of time — have you ever contemplated making some memes of your own? How do you start?
As we mentioned, you can get the Memes app HERE. This makes creating memes easier than ever. But what type of memes should you make? What should go into them? And how can you increase the odds of them being received favorably?
Boy, you sure do ask a lot of questions. But don't fear, because we're about to share our top tips for creating a winning meme design.
Fit in to stand out
A great meme should be unique. Check to make sure the idea you have hasn't been done to death already. Nobody is going to laugh at the same joke for the 12,011th time.
Beyond being unique, you also want your meme to tap into current trends, events and jokes. Do some research and see what’s trending before you get started. This is where hashtags are your friend. Look at the top trending topics, read through the stories, jokes and memes that are catching fire, get inspired, make your own and throw it into the fray. This increases your meme's odds of being seen and enjoyed by those looking for this particular subject.
Make it shareable
Great memes deserve to be spread to the masses. Heck, that's why we created our website. Upload your memes to all your social media sites, and make sure your settings allow it to be shared. One person might share it to their friends, then they'll share it to theirs, so on and so forth until your meme is a viral sensation.
As much as a meme would help liven up your private blog, it won't gain a lot of traction if no one can find it. Remember what you learned in Kindergarten and share with the whole class.
Keep it simple and clear
Memes are the best way to express your creativity, but don't go nuts. If you reinvent the wheel too hard, you're gonna wind up with oval tires and won't travel very far.
Use clear and simple fonts to make it easy and quick for your audience to read your memes. Also, avoid pictures with potato quality. No one's going to laugh at the image if they can't tell what the image is.
Bring your ideas to life
Your memes won't get any love if they never get made. There's no reason to be intimidated. You're now armed with knowledge, and the greatest meme-making tool out there.
You’ll love all the different types of memes you can create. There’s something for everyone. They’re fully customizable, so you can add music, video clips, animation and more to make them your own.
So what are you waiting for?
