    Viral marketing into today's market is extremely essential if you want to broaden your target audience.

    Does anyone wish to share concepts of viral marketing of their own? I have an idea on one which I am going to begin to develop, and it's an idea unlike any other i've had.

    Looking for thoughts on viral marketing, etc.

    Viral marketing: An online marketing strategy that encourages people to pass on a marketing message. Amusing and low-budget, a good Internet viral campaign (e.g. "Jerry Tate: Office Linebacker") will get surfers forwarding the ad to all of their friends to others, giving the company great word of mouth.

    The usual ideas come to mind, such as article writing, creating viral reports and videos...

    The new distributed viral forum/blog/wiki/classified/etc viral advertising engine is here. Spread the word about your product or service in short amount of time to millions of people. Get residual traffic and increase search engine visibility by using long lasting backlinks. Low cost, no pay per click fraud issues and great ROI.

    Things that usually go viral for me are pictures or videos. Like a leaked playboy cover before the magazine date or something.

    LOL! Unless I'm missing a huge section of your website I think you don't understand what viral marketing is about. Firing up a spam-bot to post your "clients" web address on multiple forums and wiki-style pages is NOT viral, hell it's not even respectable.
