Viral marketing strategies are marketing techniques which once 
implemented take on a life of their own; they continually expand 
their reach across cyberspace drawing more customers and their 
cash into your net. They can spread like wildfire from place to 
place, luring, enticing and pre-selling prospective customers 
before they even reach your site.

Viral marketing strategies are so powerful that whole ebooks and 
courses have been written on how to implement and use such 
techniques to squeeze the most out of them. As once set up 
correctly you may never need to pay for advertising again…

So what types of techniques work?

Well as I said there have been book written on the subject, so 
here's a quick run down of a few techniques which I've used to 
help create steady streams of traffic to my websites.

Writing and submitting articles such as this is a great technique 
for getting more links back to your site and for drawing in more 
visitors, as people publish them in ezines, on their blogs and 
websites and you'll find them popping up all over the place.  
If you go to Google and type in "How to profit from your home 
business blog" you'll find about 9,290 listings of that article 
which I wrote a while back…it's also the most popular download at 
contentdesk.com with over 4200 downloads last time I checked. So 
if you're not regularly writing and submitting articles, why not?

Power tip: Make your article viral, by adding at the end 
something like this to encourage distribution:

Putting together and distributing viral ebooks is another 
strategy I've used with good results. The key is to make them 
'brandible' so that consumers can brand the ebook with their own 
affiliate links, this gives them an incentive to pass them on and 
on.

A few places you can give these away are, to your customers, 
website visitors or in article/forum signatures. This is an 
excellent example of a free viral ebook which is like nothing 
you'll have ever seen:

These are two strategies you can implement straight away. Other 
viral marketing techniques you could use are:

- Creating and distribution podcasts on your niche; turn your 
articles in to podcasts and you'll add a new stream of visitors 
to your site, don't forget to submit them to podcast directories.

- Create viral videos and submit them to google video, ifilm and 
other video related websites. Done properly, these are a very 
effective strategy.

- Add refer-a-friend scripts to your site, these are freely 
available just do an internet search, I've used "Spread The Word" 
which is a good free script. If you give away an incentive for 
referring friends (e.g. viral ebook) you can really enhance the 
effect of this strategy.

There are many more viral marketing techniques that you could 
use, focus on one at a time and keep working until you get the 
results you want. Decide now to take action and take your 
business to the next level.
