Has anyone had success getting content passed around virally? What is the best way to do this?

    While I am no expert at getting anything to go viral (as of yet) it is through JV offers, and launching a product that is epic enough to seize the attention of those who have MASSIVE email marketing lists.

    On the contrary, videos have a way of going viral, as do well researched press releases, it simple needs to be shocking information, cutting edge, or some ridiculous & outlandish - freak of the moment exploitation.

    I mean, really it can be done with amazing marketing, social media, or a number of ways... my main goal is to create a product so f'in awesome, that the super-affiliates will blast their lists and compete for the prestigious win on the launch contest, lol.

    Follow this system:

    DECIDE on the social media platform you want to viralize your content on

    IDENTIFY sections of the platform that specialize in your content (clue: at FB, this takes the form of pages and groups. At Twitter, this takes the form of hashtags and direct @ influencers)

    STUDY the viral content sent by those groups. Figure out why some are more viral than others.

    EXPERIMENT with your own version of the viral materials.

    MEASURE your results.

    TWEAK your content until you replicate your models' results.

    REMEMBER not to copy. Be inspired. But never copy.
