Viral Marketing Explained

Hi everyone,

Let's take a quick look at viral marketing.

As the name suggests, viral marketing is a way to spread your message, affiliate link or anything else for that matter, all over the Internet. Here's an example of how this works...

So, you have a product to sell. It could be your own product or it could be someone else's, for which you are the affiliate marketer. Basically you want people to click on a link that will take them to a sales page. And again, it could be your own page or that of an affiliate website.

This is what you do...

You write a short report or an ebook of say 10 to 20 pages and throughout the document you place your link or links. At the end of the document you tell your readers that they can give the book away free to their website visitors. You then give the document away absolutely free to anyone who wants it.

Make it easy for people to download the report or ebook and tell them that they can use it as a freebie on their website. Now, they could download a copy, save it and then put it on their web server or they can just place a link to it on their website or in an email.

So here's what happens...

Visitor "A" puts a link to your ebook on his website. He gets 50 visitors a day to his website and so 25 of these visitors also put links to your book on their websites. They also, each get the same amount of traffic and so it goes on and on...

Example: 25x25=625 links back to your product.

In a matter of days your ebook could be circulating like this...

25x25=625 - 625x25=15625 - 15625x25=390,625 - 390625x25=9765625

That's almost 10 million people who have a copy of your ebook and if only 1% clicked on a link within the ebook and bought just one of your products, which sells at $19.95 you would make a cool $1,995,000. That's almost $2 million!

That's the power of viral marketing.

But it gets better!

You wouldn't have to write a single word of your report or ebook. Just get hold of an ebook that comes with Private Label Rights. You can then edit the text, claim to be the author and add all your affiliate links. With PLR you can do what you want with the product.
