This design uses a road map theme in its title and design to move through the content. Each step features an icon to describe it; most are representative of the steps although the treasure map for making something viral-ready is a little vague. The location pins are another good visual queue for reinforcing the road map. However, overall the infographic is very text-heavy, and the viewer can't glean much of the information in each step without reading since the body copy is large and all bold, making it hard to pin down the most important pieces. In all we'd give this a D because while the road map theme is visually clear, the ideas of building backlinks and building infographics aren't visually represented much, and there's a lot of reading.
