What if I don't have a designer?

The way your content looks is just as important as what your content is saying. Without a customized design or look that matches the topic of your content to keep your readers interested and engaged, your story, no matter how interesting or important, may not be heard.

The good news is that you don't need a professional designer when creating with Playbuzz. All of our tools enables you to create customized content that will keep your readers engaged and interacting with your content even without the help of a design studio.

Check out our top 4 ways to create customized content without a design team!

1

START FROM A CUSTOM TEMPLATE

How do I create from a custom template?

Already know what kind of article you want to create? Such as a breaking news story, a movie review, a recipe, or maybe an interview? If so, choose from one of our existing templates that give you an easy, ready-made layout with design touches that will match the type of article you're creating!

To create using one of our templates, click on the purple "Create" button at the top right corner of the playbuzz.com homepage, then click "Story". Now, once in the Playbuzz Editor, immediately beneath "Let's get started!", click on "start from a template".

Image Editor

What can I do to my images?

Once you've chosen an image from Getty, uploaded one from your computer or using a link from the web, you can add finishing design touches to your images to match the content of your article.

For example:

  • Customized text on your image (with choice of font and background color)
  • Customized crop
  • Emojis
  • Stickers
  • Paint


In addition to these tools, you can also blur your image so that your readers must click on it to reveal the image. This is first and foremost a way to build suspense and make your content more interactive, but it's also a design touch that makes your content look and feel more interesting!

Customized Text

Why customize my text? And how do I do it?

Customizing the text of your article is a great way to make whatever you're writing about look more interesting and attractive. It's a sure fire way to spice up a block of text that may otherwise leave your readers skimming over something important you're trying to get across! It also enables you to make design touches that better align the look of your text to the topic of your article.

You can:

  • Drop down letter to start your text (see above)
  • Highlight important parts of your text
  • Italicize, bold, or underline important words
  • Strikethrough
  • List anything with bullet and numbered points
  • Go crazy with emojis
  • Hyperlink to relevant sites
