Many top marketers preach that viral marketing is one of the most effective ways of driving huge amounts of traffic to your website. Some marketers have even launched their online businesses and kept them working because of their viral marketing strategies - one successful example of this is Lee McIntyre and he reveals how he has made over $100,000 since starting online 6-7 months ago on his site here.
But how else can you write your way to viral success?
Well today I have got 2 quick tips for you today…
Number One - Write a HOT viral report (yeah yeah, you’ve heard it all before…)
Ok so yeah, you know about writing a report that is packed with hot information, that people will be happy to share with their friends and, if you do it well, their list, but they’re several things you must do to make sure this happens. Fristly, it must be good information for your report to go viral (especially in the make money niche). Also I recommend you do NOT force people to opt-in for a free report, if you have to opt-in it is not, strictly speaking, free anymore.
Why not offer the opt-in? I have found this way produces much better results. Also you can have plenty of links on the download page, you can have redirects etc. Just don’t force the opt-in. SIMPLE.
Now I also recommend you don’t stuff the report full of links to your site, affiliate products or friends sites and offers. I recommend that you place a simple link in the footer to your site or offer, prefferably going straight to sales/squeeze page of some sort. Keeping it almost link free will encourage people to share it as much as possible as long as the information is something people will benefit from.
A final thing to encourage people to re-distribute your report and promote your business is to allow them to brand your footer link and put their affiliate link but to YOUR product at the bottom of each page. This will encourage the re-distribution no end!
Try these techniques and watch them work
Number Two - Write an article or squeeze page for your re-distributers to use to get people to download your report once they have re-branded it…
Here’s the lowdown, simply write a interesting and gripping article (like this one
) and give it to your affiliates to use to get people to the download page for their version of YOUR report. Encouraging your affiliates to take action will increase the amount of action they actually take to help you build your business.
Providing them with materials they need will do the rest to get them working for you. Also remember that YOUR list is FULL of people who will be ready to promote your product whatever niche you are in, let them know about the report, how they can brand it, make money and set the off. Remember, explain all the important points if they aren’t in a tech savvy or make money niche. Also make it simpler for people who aren’t used to the ways of the internet marketing world.
Anyway, let me know how you manage your viral marketing and what gives you the best results.
