Ever had Chicken Pox? It all starts from one member of the family getting infected by a friend or a relative. He brings the virus home and pretty soon the entire family gets hit by chicken pox… but not before the ‘carrier’ passes it to another friend’s family!
This is what viral marketing is like – when you have the necessary tools to drive traffic to your website, your profits will be unstoppable!Here are a few key components you will need to accomplish this feat:
• Advertisements placed in strategic locations (e.g. at the back of viral E-books)
• A viral traffic promotion. Here are a few good places to start:
1. Traffic Smashers: They also cloak your links.
2. ListJoe, click to earn credits and promote your site
3. Leadgushers-you get a free webpage to advertise on
4. Traffic leads and sales
If you want to kick start your viral marketing campaign you will need to find a suitable ‘carrier’ for your ‘viruses’.
By having the right carrier, you will be able to launch your campaign as swiftly as possible because it will take a while before the viral effect starts to kick in.
A suitable carrier would be an E-product that will easily fall into the hands of many readers automatically and it must have a targeted audience (related to that particular niche) who will find your ad useful.
However, you must choose the right kind of carrier. This carrier must either have a lot of credibility or an attraction factor that will appeal to the target audience or the resellers (other carriers). An example of an effective carrier is that the E-product must have an appealing E-cover that will capture the attention of your prospects.You must give them a reason to do the viral marketing work for you without you doing it yourself. The key is to set it up correctly the first time (choosing the best product to place your ad, writing a compelling advertisement and choosing the best placements).
Then, when your campaign launches, you won’t need to do anything more other than watch the traffic flow in!
