What is Viral Marketing?

Viral marketing is a broad concept that utilises a range of online media. A viral marketing campaign is one that is designed to grow via the actions of web users. For example, a video that is posted on an Internet forum or a funny email that is forwarded between web users can be viral.

There are many types of viral marketing, but what they all have in common is that they grow exponentially - meaning that as the campaign grows, the rate of the growth increases, like a virus. Viral marketing campaigns often reach hundreds of thousands and sometimes millions of web users.

How Does it Benefit My Business?

Viral marketing is an excellent way of increasing your online and offline brand identity. It can ultimately lead to more traffic and increased sales but the immediate benefits are less tangible. If you are looking to increase awareness of your brand or business, or simply promote a specific product, a clever viral marketing campaign is a cost-effective, creative way of doing so. When combined with a clever search engine optimisation link building campaign, viral marketing can produce, if executed effectively, an impressive return on investment.

Whether you want to increase PageRank™ through link building, draw attention to your presence online or generate greater awareness of your brand or business, viral marketing can produce massively impressive results.

Viral marketing is fun and exciting and has the potential to expose your business message to a multitude of people who would otherwise not have seen it.
