There are a lot of potential advantages to using viral marketing. Viral Marketing is effective for online as well as traditional "store front" companies. Well thought out viral marketing campaigns are successful because others will talk about the site or business to others, possibly even millions can become aware very quickly -- hence the association with viruses. Viral marketing promotions can be both affordable as well as remarkably successful. They consist of communicating by word-of-mouth as well as different methods of directing audiences to your site.
First of all, always remember to keep your viral marketing campaign smooth and understated so as not to annoy nor drive potential customers away. The secret is to present one-of-a-kind, practical content that users will feel compelled to share with their loved ones. It is human nature to spread the word - for example a humble novel can suddenly explode into popularity after the miracle of word-of-mouth.
Post an easy to fill out, "tell a friend" feature on your site. Make it easy to locate and make sure it appears on every page, but DO NOT email the friends following the first contact (do not automatically include the friends in your mailing list) let them opt in at some point if they wish. You do not want to acquire a reputation for being a spammer nor do you want people think you are pushy or annoying.
Compose an online book, provide wallpaper or backgrounds for PCs, along with clever tools, such as online weather forecasts. Make certain that you brand these with links reminding people of your web site.
Put a clever brand name or logo on your site or product. This should be listed repeatedly on your site and on every item you sell.
Use RSS if your content is dynamic. A wide variety of websites from all over the world will grab and show a top quality RSS feed.
The campaign should reach people at their emotional core and demand immediate action. You should stand out from the crowd and be firm but not overbearing.
