    The simplest way to do viral marketing is to add a "Tell a Friend" button after every article or content on your site. Other methods including using social media tools and sites to spread out your contents, making it go viral. :)

    I'm no expert but here is one idea.

    Create and give away items with a real value. If your serious about this, just outsource the creation of the product if you can't create it yourself. If you provide something really helpful and promote it in the right places, by nature people will talk about it and pass your link around.

    Some ideas -

    - GOOD wordpress themes.
    - simple but useful software.
    - reports, ebooks, videos, podcasts that contain information as good as stuff people pay for.

    You should also try and provide some sort of benefit to those who pass the material around. For example, if you write a KILLER report on a subject, throw in a few affiliate links that are rebrandable while leaving your websites link untouchable.

    It's all about creating real value and promoting things properly.

    Be well.
