“Marketing videos that “go viral” can bring companies and organizations a huge amount of PR value, in the form of online visibility, brand recognition and website hits, often for a very small cost.

But how does a marketing video “go viral” and why are some video production more successful than others?

A “viral video” is simply a video that becomes popular through the process of Internet sharing and to understand how they work, it’s important to look at how they began. Viral videos predate video sharing sites like Youtube that we are all now familiar with and began with in-box-to-in-box e-mail sharing.

One of the first known examples was “Dancing Baby”, when in 1996 animator Ron Lussier forwarded a video he’d created around his workplace, which was then circulated widely across the Internet via e-mail.

“I’ve seen marketers make stupid statements before but the other day, over at the Warrior Forum, I saw what was probably the stupidest statement ever. I am talking about relevant backlinks. The person who started the thread claims that the only backlinks that are relevant to your site are ones that come from sites that are in the same niche. In other words, if you have a site on home repair, the only backlinks that are relevant are the ones that come from other home repair sites. If you believe that, I have some land to sell you…cheap.”
