Viral Videos

To start this post I wanted to share my favorite viral video at the moment: Iggy Azalea- Fancy, so awesome if you have not seen it!





How can I have a video go viral? I can explain this in two words. 

 BE BEYONCÉ 

 Obviously everyone cannot be Beyoncé. You should probably just give up now because chances are you will never become a viral video star. If you are not discouraged yet here are some options you can do to try to become a YouTube star, but do not get your hopes up.

First post your video to YouTube, then share it to Twitter, Facebook, and sites like Reddit. Making sure it is something that is blogged about is how you get it a ton of attention. Keep in mind that the easier it is for people to share the more people will share it.

Releasing it early in the week is the best bet to go because people are usually on their computers at school or work and will occasionally browse the web.

Writing a good title that is catchy is important as well, one that people will remember. For me this brings up the video Kitty Corliss "Grinding the Crack". How can you forget a title like that? Very different, funny, and strange especially after you watch it. This video is also only about 30 seconds long. You do NOT want to make your video longer than two minutes! People are not going to take the time to watch a thirty minute video unless you are Lana Del Rey and it is Tropico.

 

  *Something else to keep in mind is that higher quality videos tend to get more attention* 

Your video must be good in order to get any attention so in order for this post to be applicable you might want to spend a majority of your time working on your master piece. The remainder of this post I have dedicated to Beyoncé and some of my favorite viral videos she has made. You may look at these and note reasons they went so viral, well other than the fact that they were made by freaking Beyoncé! Enjoy!
