In my opinion, there really isn't any sure-fire way to go instantly viral but I to think that video content can get a lot of eyes on you. We recently made a video about SaaS video marketing based on an older blog post we had. On YouTube, our video was the third result for "saas video marketing", while the blog post took about a month to rank for the same keyword.
So while videos can't guarantee instant virality per se, they can absolutely guarantee more exposure than you're used to in a short amount of time.

from my experience the most imp. thing is - make sure your content is shareable. That means creating something that people not only like, but want to pass on to their friends and family.
Think about the type of content that you typically share on your own social media - is it
-funny,
-inspiring, or
-informative?
Use that as a guide to create content that others will want to share too.
Secondly, timing is everything. Posting at the right time can make a huge difference in how your content performs.
Do some research to find out when your target audience is most active on social media and schedule your content to go out during those times.
Thirdly, engage with your audience. Respond to comments and messages, ask for feedback, and create a sense of community around your brand or content.
This not only makes people more likely to engage with your content, but can also make your followers feel like they're a part of something bigger.
IMO, to maximize your chances of going viral on social media, focus on creating exceptional and valuable content.

@shaur_ul_asar Agreed
@shaur_ul_asar Agreed, virality doesn't mean quality. Even if you get a huge audience, it might not be the audience that you want. Have seen people talk about after blowing up after 1 standout piece of content and regretting the fast growth because the quality of their community changed.

@shaur_ul_asar Thank you!
Look at what queries are growing in your niche and make content for them. People are already looking for answers to their questions, and you're giving them useful content.
Plus, watch the most viral text posts and reformat them into videos.
Plus, constantly experiment with the format of content delivery, it can be humor, educational, aesthetic content.
In my opinion, content works best when it hits an emotion.

@neha_khan78 Thanks for sharing!
Each platform is different, and “going viral” shouldn’t be the goal. The goal should be to consistently provide value to people watching, it creates overall better followers, and going viral becomes a byproduct if you’re lucky. Be sure you tailor your creative to the social platform, be creative and try different things.

Create shareable and relatable content that taps into people's emotions. Utilize influencers (or micro-influencers) in your niche to amplify reach. Prompt engagement with calls-to-action.

@realvladgolub Thank you, Vlad!
In my opinion, there is no magic formula for becoming popular on social media. The key is offering content that is relevant to your target audience.
I think there are no shortcuts when it comes to going viral on social media. It requires consistent effort and a commitment to crafting exceptional and meaningful creative content, especially through videos.
By continuously pushing the boundaries of creativity, delivering content that resonates with your audience, and maintaining a high standard of quality, increase your chances of achieving viral success.

I believe it is different for every social media. But one thing is the same, consistency. If you show up every day and learn from your previous days. There is no stopping you
The viral game is tricky. Start with engaging content - authentic, relatable, and ideally, shareable. Leverage trends but avoid bandwagons that don't align with your brand.
Don't underestimate the power of good timing. But remember, going viral is great, staying relevant is better. So focus on building solid relationships with your audience.
Engage with your followers, their networks matter. Influencer collabs can help.

There are a few essential points to remember when it comes to becoming viral on social media. I think the best way to begin with, it's grabbing attention with original and creative material.
Considering thinking outside the box and providing something that stands out from the crowd. Understanding your target audience and adapting your material to their tastes is also important. We know that each social media network has its own vibe and features, so we need to make sure adapting the strategy accordingly. Also don't underestimate the importance of time. Posting your material when your audience is most active increases your chances of becoming viral significantly.
I think these are a few tips for going viral. I may be wrong on some parts but if anyone knows better please let me know so I can learn too :D

@tigerteamx Thank you for these amazing tricks!
From my personal experience, I've noticed that timing is crucial for going viral. Posting a relevant piece of content right after an important event or once a trend just started produces great results!
Also, keeping up with algorithm changes within each SM platform. The platform will reward you for this.
