Viral Marketing Defined
It is allowing others to giveaway and use your free product or service in order to multiply your marketing quickly over the internet. The idea behind viral marketing is that you include your ad with the freebie people giveaway or use.
But to become successful, you must totally understand the concept in order to get the most out of it.
Brand your web site, business and yourself by submitting articles to e-zines. You could include your name, business name, your credentials, web site address and e-mail address in your resource box. An example of a resource box is -

garland, tx 75043
You could include something like the above at the end of each of your articles, specifing, that the resource box, as it is known, would stay with the article in the event it was used as copy in a ezine, ebook, etc.
Understand and know, or better yet, become known as an expert on the topics you write about. This will give you and your business extra credibility which will help you compete against your competition. Face it, if you don't know what you're talking about. it will become very well known around the net, spreading like a "VIRUS". You'll gain people's trust. If they read your article, like it, and they believe you, they won't be as hesitant to buy your product or service. You will then be able to increase your profits.
Having your article placed on a publishers home page or archives will give you extra exposure. Future subscribers might want to read the back copies before they subscribe. I have several articles in archive, one of which is -

Submiting your article to a publisher that has a free content directory on their web site, allows visitors to republish your article. Some sites are below -

Other publishers might want to publish your articles in their free e-books. These ebooks are given away, and your advertising could multiply all over the web. Agree to run someone else's article in your ezine, if they'll run your article in theirs. It's a win/win situation.
This is all free advertising that allows you to spend your money elsewhere on other forms of advertising. Such as, buying ad space in other ezines that don't publish your articles.
And speaking of money, if your good enough, you could write other peoples articles, ebooks, speak at seminars, etc. This is a great way to multiply your income.
All the Best...
