If you're advertising your webiste, getting good ranking on Google, and still want more traffic it's time to focus on making your website viral. The primary way you can make your website viral is by making it interesting enough for someone to share your content on any number of social networks. Here are 5 ways you can create viral content to spread the word about your business.
1. Make interesting images.
If you have a Facebook account you probably notice the primary thing people do on Facebook is share images and photos. By creating interesting images and photos and share them across Facebook you'll draw attention to your business. Be sure to put a link to your website in each post and encourage people to follow and share.
2. Make interesting videos.
If you can make interesting and funny videos people will share them. A recent study shows over 12% of all internet traffic is on Youtube. People love to watch videos. It's a heck of a lot easier than reading an article and you can use this to your advantage. Make sure you include your domain name as a watermark in each of the original videos you share online and you're sure to generate some extra traffic.
3. Run a sweepstakes.
People love giveaways and Facebook is the perfect place to do one. Have a drawing once a day, week, month, or whatever you can afford. Make the prize worth while and require people to like your page in order to be entered to win. Make sure you announce your winners publicly. This will provide your sweepstakes credibility and get more people to like your page and enter your contests.
4. Bribe your fans.
Give you current fans something for free in exchange for referring more likes to your page. They can do this by inviting their friends to follow your page or by sharing a link to your Facebook page on their wall.
5. Ask them to share every chance you get.
No matter what you're posting you should always ask people to share your content. Whether it be a photo, video, or text. Just make a quick blurb bellow your post asking your friends to share.
Of course sharing on Facebook and running a viral campaign is just part of your online marketing efforts. If you haven't already done so you can go to WebStarts.com and create your very own free website.
