    Me and my team are going to develop a network of facebook apps for different areas. The main aspect we are going to consider is virality, so these apps will be highly viral.

    I wan to ask you guys, who are more experienced in facebook marketing, which are the best ways to make facebook apps get viral?

    I know that we need a critical amount of installs until they get viral, the most important will be the first application to get viral, from there we can advertise the other ones.

    For those who had experience marketing facebook apps in the past, what's the average installs for an app to get viral?

    Also, we are looking for people who are experienced in facebook marketing to help us promote the apps. We'll give a percent of revenue or we can develop customized apps for you at low prices. PM for more details

    Thank you

    Don't get me wrong. I wanted to know "ways to make the app get viral", how to promote it, not when it's viral.

    Until facebook deletes it(they don't have the reason to delete it if once it starts getting viral you change wall posting policy to follow their TOS), you can make shit load of money, than you'll change IP and you'll put it up again.

    an APP that will surely GO viral:

    an APP that will make a TOP of your facebook friends,
    based on HOW MANY friends (HOW POPULAR) each of your friends is.

    This app will make you millions of dollars and WILL GO VIRAL.

    Here is your free idea

    application only get viral just because of uniqueness what is the unique element of your application ? now a days most of the applications are for kids and there is no serious stuff and there are many things that if you can come up with some thing new and interesting then people can mark them on facebook applications platform like for example the first urdu application of facebook is baba fooka

    I have seen many viral fb games such as games developed by zynga.
    1) Game users will be asked to add friends if they need to achieve a goal, or a level up.
    2) They post on walls about the level updates.
    3) They offer virtual money, which only users friends can collect.
    4) They use some funny, nice graphic thumbnails when posting on walls.
    5) They allow other users to visit other users game to get upgrades, level ups, virtual currency..

    So really speaking Developers are not promoting the app, users promoting it to get their profiles upgraded/.
