December 15, 2015 by Blog Herald

Social media and blogging are a match made in heaven. Integrating the two is the best way to raise brand awareness and increase traffic on your site. However, that’s only possible if your posts get shared. For some brands, getting content to go viral is simple – their reputation alone seems to drive traffic. On the other hand, some need to work a little harder if they want them to be shared.

Fortunately, it can be done if you’re willing to put in the effort. Getting more views that generate leads and increase search engine visibility is possible if you’re willing to apply a few tips and tricks. [Read more…]

Editor’s note: This post was written by Rohan, who creates digital master plans at E2M Solutions for companies seeking advanced search marketing services. He also works on mobile UX improvement for startups and sui generis brands at OnlyDesign.org. Hit him up on Google+ for a chat on any of these areas.

We are swimming in a veritable ocean of content on the internet today. Data shows that we create over 211 million pieces of content every minute.

Videos, articles, infographics, images, memes, GIFs – the sheer variety can be mind boggling. From absolute garbage that has been spun and re-spun a million times to pieces that are tearjerkers hands down, the quality of all this content is equally diverse.

How to Write a Post That Goes Viral

July 23, 2014 by Adrienne Erin

Do you want your blog content to go viral? Sure you do. Accumulating more readers, views, and shares is the ultimate goal of a blogger, after all. Unfortunately, there’s no guarantee that your content will spread – on a massive scale or just in general – but there are steps you can take to boost your odds.

First of all, if you’re trying to reach lots of eyeballs through spammy or dubious methods, stop. As a blogger, you need to be dedicated to creating booming content, stuff that your particular audience will love and be inspired to share. Yes, slapdash content can work to gather initial views, but they do no favors for overall shareability.

When Millions Are Bad: I’ve Got A Case Of The Fridays

March 25, 2011 by Tanner Godarzi

The web can be a funny thing. When something goes viral, it spreads to almost every corner of the web and finds a way to infect you. Rebecca Black’s music video for her (terrible) song Friday has amassed over 40 million views and close to 700,000 dislikes. As parodies funnier and better than the song crop up and criticism towards Black is openly mocked with the statement “It sticks in their heads and that’s what counts” the question really is: when is too much of something a bad thing? When you’re viral in a bad way.

What kind of life can I live where the toughest decision of my day is to choose whether or not I should sit in the front or back seat of a car? Evidently not the one I’m living now.
