Compelling data visualizations can make any complex data understandable. However, it could be tricky sometimes. Let's review the things you should do and the things you better avoid.

Do

1. Keep it simple.
2. Use colors effectively.
3. Choose the right chart type.
4. Label everything.
5. Make your data visualization interactive.

Don't

1. Overcomplicate your visualizations. You want people to comprehend the data, not to have headaches after your presentation!
2. Misrepresent data to create a false impression or mislead the audience.
3. Overuse color. It makes the data points hart to read.
4. Ignore accessibility in your design.
5. Pick the wrong chart.
