This article will give you eight hot ideas for your new viral marketing campaign. Viral marketing, or word of mouth marketing, is the most inexpensive form yet potentially the most powerful form of marketing you can use.
Rebrand a Viral eBook You can buy ebooks which include rebrand rights that allow you to pass on the book for free with your name as the author. This is a great way to get autoresponder sign ups and a nice way for people to spread your book around the internet.
Set up a Forum A popular forum will get great search engine rankings and will attract many people in your niche to ask questions, comment and review products. Forums are a powerful viral marketing medium.
Use Facebook Facebook has grown into a mega social network with over 70 million users. If you can tap into just a tiny percentage of these users then you have hit a goldmine. Methods of marketing on Facebook include creating free applications, games and creating Groups with information about your website.
Create Templates Creating free website and blog templates with your website link in the footer is an easy way to virally market your site. Most people will leave the footer intact, instantly giving you backlinks and recognition.
Create a Video Posting a video to YouTube can bring in millions of viewers and visitors. You can post some subtle marketing messages, some tutorials or any other content you believe your readers would be interested in. Make sure you include a link to your site in the video.
Write an eBook Writing your own ebook (or paying someone to write it) is an instant way to gain credibility. You can give it away for free, thus creating a completely viral stream as more and more people pass the book on to friends. You can include some one time offers of upsells in the free ebook.
Write some Articles You can write articles and give them to webmasters within your niche to publish on their sites. As long as you have a link back to your site, you'll always receive credit for the articles.
Use Social Bookmarking Sites Sites like Stumbleupon, Digg, Technorati, Twitter, Myspace and others give you the chance to create a brand, give away free ebooks and generally provide people with a way to talk about your site. This is powerful word of mouth marketing.
These eight viral marketing ideas can help your website take off in no time.
