How Do I Make a Post on Canva?

Making a post on Canva is easy! With a few clicks, you can create a beautiful design for your blog, website, or social media platform. Here’s how:

1. Create a new design

First, you’ll need to create a new design. To do this, click on the “Create a design” button on the homepage. You can also create a design from scratch by clicking on the “+” button in the upper left-hand corner.

2. Choose your dimensions

Next, you’ll need to choose the dimensions for your design. For example, if you’re creating a post for Instagram, you’ll want to select the square option. If you’re creating a post for Facebook, you can choose from a variety of options.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with Canva, we recommend that you take some time to explore the platform and familiarize yourself with how it works before trying to make a post. There are a lot of features and options that can be overwhelming for first-time users. Additionally, if you try to make a post without understanding how Canva works, you may end up making mistakes that could be costly or time-consuming to fix.

3. Select a template or background

Once you’ve chosen your dimensions, it’s time to select a template or background for your design. Canva has thousands of beautiful templates and backgrounds to choose from. Simply browse through the options and select the one that best suits your needs.

4. Add text and images

Now it’s time to add text and images to your design. To do this, simply click on the “Text” or “Uploads” tab in the editor toolbar. Then, you can either upload your own images or select from Canva’s library of over 1 million stock photos.

5. Save and share

When you’re finished designing, simply click on the “Save” button in the upper right-hand corner. From here, you can share your design directly to social media or download it as an image file.
