Three Ways To Create The Next Viral Video
GOING VIRAL…
As expected, the TED talk titled “Why Videos Go Viral” became a sensation, gathering a whopping 1.8 million views. This captivating talk, delivered by Kevin Allocca, a renowned authority on YouTube’s Web video trends, emphasizes the importance of viewing videos as a means to initiate conversations among you, your audience, and their friends. Now, brace yourself as Electro Wow presents a comprehensive guide to achieving video fame (while the fortune it brings is entirely up to you).
1. – THINK ABOUT YOUR GLOBAL AUDIENCE
More than 80 percent of YouTube views happen outside the United States. So remember that your video could be seen by anyone, anywhere, as long as they have Internet access. So jettison the Obama jokes, okay?
2. – STICK WITH IT (AND STOP TRYING SO HARD)
Don’t expect to break the Internet with one of your first posts; it’s not often that people gain fame from a one-off video. Most creators mess up early on, so feel free to experiment publicly. The best way to build a loyal audience is slowly – that is, by sharing tips, tricks, and tutorials over time.
3. – NARROW YOUR FOCUS TO WIDEN SHARING
People often think they should make something that will appeal to everybody, but usually micro-specific topics – one-genre DJ sets, steps to produce a song or a remixing guide – are what attract passionate (sharing) audiences. The fans will find you. Thanks, Google.
