A whopping one third of internet usage is now video consumption! And when it comes to utilizing this for business, animation is the key. It’s versatile, creative and the perfect way to communicate your message quickly.

The presence of a superior animation shows quality. And as part of a vibrant media mix on your site shows search engines that your site is enriched with great media content. As consumers demand more video content from their online usage, search engines will rank your website higher when it features an animation video. Once your animation is online, it’s time to get sharing!
