Viral marketing strategies are marketing techniques which
once implemented take on a life of their own; they continually
expand their reach across cyberspace drawing more customers
and their cash into your net. They can spread like wildfire
from place to place, luring, enticing and pre-selling prospective
customers before they even reach your site.
Viral marketing strategies are so powerful that whole ebooks
and courses have been written on how to implement and use
such techniques to squeeze the most out of them. As once set
up correctly you may never need to pay for advertising again.
So what types of techniques work?
Well as I said there have been book written on the subject,
so here's a quick run down of a few techniques which I've
used to help create steady streams of traffic to my websites.
Writing and submitting articles such as this is a great technique
for getting more links back to your site and for drawing
in
more visitors, as people publish them in ezines, on their
blogs and websites and you'll find them popping up all over
the place. If you go to Google and type in "How to profit
from your home business blog" you'll find about 9,290
listings of that article which I wrote a while back.it's
also
the most popular download at contentdesk.com with over 4200
downloads last time I checked. So if you're not regularly
writing and submitting articles, why not?
Power tip: Make your article viral, by adding at the
end something like this to encourage distribution:
"(Feel free to use this article online and in your email
newsletters as long as you leave it intact and do not alter
it in anyway. The by-line and biography must remain in the
article.)"
Putting together and distributing viral ebooks is another
strategy I've used with good results. The key is to make them
'brandible' so that consumers can brand the ebook with their
own affiliate links, this gives them an incentive to pass
them on and on.
A few places you can give these away are, to your customers,
website visitors or in article/forum signatures. This is an
excellent example of a free viral ebook which is like nothing
you'll have ever seen:

These are two strategies you can implement straight away.
Other viral marketing techniques you could use are:
- Creating and distribution podcasts on your niche; turn
your articles in to podcasts and you'll add a new stream
of visitors to your site, don't forget to submit them to
podcast directories.
- Create viral videos and submit them to google video,
ifilm and other video related websites. Done properly, these
are a very effective strategy.
- Add refer-a-friend scripts to your site, these are freely
available just do an internet search, I've used "Spread
The Word" which is a good free script. If you give
away an incentive for referring friends (e.g. viral ebook)
you can really enhance the effect of this strategy.
There are many more viral marketing techniques that you could
use, focus on one at a time and keep working until you get
the results you want. Decide now to take action and take your
business to the next level.
