Canva Review: Graphic design tool to build your brand

Design tools are essential for every business. Hiring a designer is is quite fine but what you do not have that budget. Perhaps you will look for some tools online, right? A tool that is user friendly so you can give your content and media some colors too. Photoshop is most widely used tool but someone who uses design tools occasionally download and install one such tools is not a very great idea. It will take lots of resources too. 
All computer programmes whether you use a Windows or Linux and may be a Mac comes with graphic design tools. However, those are very basic type. I never used Mac so can't say much about a Mac. May be that is great because Steve Jobs was a great artist in the first place.
But when you need a tool for basic purposes you may need an easy to use Graphic Design tool. A tool that can do quick designs for you.
I am using Canva since many years  till now free version. Personally I give Canva Graphic Design tool 4 out of 5 points. Its browser based and works very well for me. I don't need to switch task when I need a simple Graphic. I just open my Canva.com and do it in less than 5 minutes. 
I am using this tools since long but I was not sure what to say about it. It was just OK for me to use occasionally.
I work as producer for a reputed company over many years. Nowadays they have started an education news website where my job is to write important news. I do a piece a two daily. Like any other news site in education we also take images from internet sources.
Someday I found an image too dark from source. And there was only image available. I don't like to use image of other at least in my content.
Confused, I opened Canva, did a quick design, and send it to company's CEO for approval.
He is tough person when implementing a new thing. I was not expecting an affirmative answer however it was approved to use.
Only based on this experience I give Canva Graphic Design tool 4 out of 5 Points.
If you want to have a look you can check it over www.canva.com
The tools is easy to use, a 5th grader can use it perfectly. Also its available over Play Store.
Another instance I remember, once I got a client for Web Designing. This assignment was for about a 5 page website. I am full time writer, but because I can do so I thought instead of sourcing why not to do it self.
Next day was a holiday for me. While relaxing I was think over design pattern for the client. Out of nothing Downloaded Canva App for my Android Mobile and made a logo.
Next, I shared this with client and his first reaction was "GAJAB" a Hindi Word which means awesome.
From inside I know I am not a professional designer, yes my visualizations are ok but mixing layers etc might be terrible.
Hence I can surely say Canva is a 4 star graphic design tool for me. Do check it out. Canva graphics will certainly help  you in Brand building.

How to get quality traffic on a single page website that converts

Single page website? Not a bad idea. May be you want to sell your products online. You can not write too much as you are too busy in creating and modifying your product. And you need to travel a lot for promotions. Outsourcing could be one of the answer but if your budget is tight then hiring a freelancer may drain your money. And writing regular blog post would be tough. In such a situation one page website can serve the purpose. It will be easy to update especially if its cms based may be like wordpress for example. Its one page website with simple product picture, detailed description, ways to order and customer review. You are not tech savvy and don't want to invest too much on website's geeky things. One page is enough for you. Its doable, but without traffic how will you generate online sales. That is the question right? I said quality traffic that converts and make your bank account numbers increase. After all you mean sales. Its a good idea that you want to focus on you...

Experiences give Learnings and these comes of Pain

 May be right, may be wrong. But not absolute rubbish. Going for the first time despite knowing perhaps I won't be able to achieve milestones as the support system is scary weak. Somewhere back and deep in the mind the thought was what I will do, then, where I will end up life. Will I succeed, if not then what will I do? Whether I will be able to make both ends meet. How will I face people at home, society, relatives and others? The struggles were endless. If I go back in memory lane I observe I met many people, I made many good friends, I got support from many teachers, I got support from many people supposedly rich in society. I met many employers. But suddenly I realized through every step in life that no one was mine. No one was my support system, that was an illusion only. As soon as people realized this guy is looking to achieve a milestone, suddenly I realized there were no friends, no well wishers, no supporters, no sympathizer. I found myself stranded in the deep seas o...
