Get Viral!

One of the quickest ways and possibly the easiest way to get boat loads of traffic to your website is through viral videos. You are probably wondering what a viral video is. Viral videos are the silly and short funny clips that you and all your friends send each other back and forth through email. Still not sure of what a viral video is… think YouTube because they thrive on viral videos.

Most viral videos are hilarious and goofy and on occasion very strange. But they are so compelling enough to make people want to share them with their friends, pass them on in emails so that they spread across the net like a wildfire. Thereby generating more traffic then you can imagine to a website… your website.

Viral videos are known and proven to be great ways to generate traffic. If you take a look at different sites that have made the small leap to including video you will see that their Alexa ranking has improved and they are getting more traffic than they did just a month before. “An individual so appropriately described viral videos as the “lingua franca of the new age”. The evolution of viral videos is definitely progressing and the proof is in the number of people that view these clips.”

You don’t need to hire a cast and crew to shoot these videos, which should be incredibly apparent based on the videos on YouTube. These viral videos can help you create the Brand of You, which is essential to Internet/network marketing. People are not going to do business with you because of your product, service or information. Ultimately they do business with you because of you.

Take a closer look at some of the videos on YouTube. Do you realize that a good majority of them are actually advertisements that you probably never would’ve seen had it not been for viral videos. “Some small time cheap videos on YouTube have been viewed hundreds of thousands of times. Viral videos are faster, better, and less expensive than the rest of the overburdened advertising world. Viral videos are the new wave of the future making YouTube the new MySpace.”

Much like social networking, which a network marketer really can no longer overlook, you can’t ignore the benefits of viral videos. They are not very hard to make, and the impact they will have on your site is, well… explosive.
