Viral Marketing
Viral Marketing is any marketing technique that encourages web site, Internet, email or wireless users to pass on a message to other sites or users, creating a potentially exponential growth in the message's visibility and effect.
Viral Marketing is extremely attractive to businesses because it can deliver astounding results in a relatively short period of time. Advertising and marketing budgets no longer stretch as far as they used to, and the perceived savings by using viral web promotion techniques are too attractive to ignore.
One example of Viral Marketing is encouraging current and potential customers to tell others about the company's products and services, and in turn encouraging those others to tell even more others.
Viral Marketing methods include email marketing, "refer-a-friend", "pass-it-on", "send-an-article", ecards, ebook distribution, video email, and many more. Internet experts at ViralBuzz can implement web promotion strategy to virtually any web site or promotional campaign.
A well known example of of successful viral email marketing is Hotmail, a company, now owned by Microsoft, that promotes its email service and its own advertisers' messages at the end of every Hotmail user's e-mail notes.
