Hello Ladies and Gents,

I've been focusing on list building to grow my business and I'm getting some good results. But, I want multiply my efforts with a viral effect. Anybody know of some cutting edge viral techniques that are highly effective for getting people to come back to my squeeze page so that my list building efforts can be multiplied?

Thanks,
Lawrence

One of the best viral marketing techniques is to write an ebook and then give it away and let other marketers rebrand it with their own affiliate links. Then - you let THEM give it away too - as a freebie or whatever.

The way it becomes viral is that they CAN'T rebrand the links back to your site.

Another way is to set up a marketing system or program that consists of tools that marketers can use to duplicate the system. All of the links can be branded EXCEPT for the links back to your site.

There's a couple of ideas for you

That's a good idea. So let me ask you this...

These 2 viral techniques have treated me very well over the years:

VIRAL TECHNIQUE #1

Let the hackers/warez pirates promote your product(s) for you to create insane viral buzz.

Having read many, many threads where people are complaining that their product is being given away, shared on warez sites, torrent sites, etc, basically being shared virally...I thought I would share this special trick.

Is your product being distributed illegally? THAT'S GREAT!
Here's what you should do... exploit this free viral traffic.

Illegal Warez Download Web Sites are the ultimate social networking sharing sites that have been around since the beginning of the internet, so why mess with success? With these techniques you can harness the heart of the internet... stealing good ****!

But why you ask should I let all of the BlueFartters steal my good ****? Well, it's painfully plain and simple, EXPOSURE!

You know how quickly viral videos get around the world and are shared automatically throughout the web community without the author doing any marketing whatsoever? Well, hacked software is shared just as much, if not much more than viral videos.

If you are selling a digital product on the Internet, THE SECRET IS : Release your previous version(s) to the hacker / warez community and let them promote your product for you, to the entire world, very quickly, thus opening the door to upsell everyone that has an illegal copy of your previous version product, to upgrade to your current version.

Submit your old versions to warez sites... people will try out your old version and if they like, will pay to register your newest version with all the latest 'security' bugs fixed! Not to mention they will be scared to use your hacked product on a public website registered in their name... can you say lawsuit?

If your product is worth sharing, and people risk doing something illegally to share your product, that should give you a hint that you have a solid product that many people want to get their hands on, by paying for it, or stealing it.

Another trick is to put a high ticket price point on your product, like $997, then somehow, (I'll leave that up to you to be creative) leak your $997 product on the torrent sites... people love to steal/share valuable products.

I'm sure you have experience submitting your url to search engines, or submitting your product details to script directories, so it's just the same submitting your (old) product (with your company details and url) to warez sites. Just to a search for warez and look for "Submit Warez" and enter the details and download link to your old version and presto... you are on the fast track to viral success! Simply repeat the process with every warez site you can find that allows you to submit your software, rinse and repeat!

VIRAL TECHNIQUE #2

Step #1.) Create a slick looking WordPress theme (or take your pick on your favorite CMS, blog, forum, osCommerce, etc... any app that has a theme based system), add your backlink to the footer, and distribute.

That's it... no step 2 or nothin...

If you don't have the graphic design/html/php skills to do this, well, simply outsource it.

I still have decent traffic from many PHP-Nuke themes, Post-Nuke themes, and Xoops themes I created back in the day... STILL getting decent traffic from them, 3-4 years later.

Please, someone kick me in the arse so I get to work creating new themes for WP, and all the other apps out there... I keep kicking my own self in the arse for not creating more themes for all the different apps out there...

It's truly a viral-traffic gold-mine.

I have quite a few PLR products that I can give away for free. When I email my list and tell them that they can use the book to give away to their list (with the links going back to my site of course) that would initiate the viral effect?

lgizzle · 08-02-2009, 08:29 PM

So you're serious about submitting my ebooks to these illegal warez sites? You've actually done that and it's worked?
