Hey there, I am Shannon Murphy. A recent Virginia Tech graduate and proud internet marketer. I have experience in several areas within the Internet marketing niche. This experience, including tips and new marketing ideas, can be found through my company's blog, www.TheMarketingSpartan.com
Viral blogs are a must when trying to build an Internet business, or any business for that matter. The question is, how do you make a blog viral? There are many ways to go about it. You can use video blogging, article marketing, and links to make sure your blog gets around the web in great fashion with hundreds of viewers around every "corner."
First, let's go into video blogging. It's not the video blogging you might be familiar with (making video blogs to post on your blogs). Instead, you want to take a blog post, make it into a video, then submit the video to social video networks (YouTube, Yahoo Videos, Guru, etc.). If you have good content in your article video, these video networks will rank them high getting you more hits and more exposure to your blog. NOTE: The more video sites you submit your video to, the better chance there is search engines will rank your videos in the actual search engine and not just video sites.
Next is the tedious task of submitting your articles to article directories. There are thousands of article directories available to post your own written blog articles to (articledashboard.com for example). Join as many articel directories as you can and again, the more you submit to the more exposure you will get to your blog (self-explanatory). Other bloggers and marketers looking for content for their blog will take your posts (if it is good content) and add them to their blogs, creating backlinks to your blog. A Very effective method to get your blog ranked high in search engines. This leads to the next blog optimization technique - links and blog linking.
So, as was explained before, article directories can help you with back links (links in a different place, taking visitors back to your blog, the original source). There is more to creating more links to your blog. Networking with other high-quality blogs will boost your blog's exposure. For example, contact blog owners in similar niches as your blog and ask to exchange blog posts. Make sure if you do this to include your links within the posts; it is pointless if you don't! You can also join other blogs and add your posts to them as well. This is a great way to get additional visitors to your site through blog networking.
There is your lesson on making your blog viral and gaining crazy exposure through 3 different internet marketing mediums. Video blogging (reversed), article submissions in article directories, and creating backlinks through networking, blog linking, and article directories.
