My big takeaway was the Controversial segment.

A lot of people, if they’re not careful, will overshoot their “controversialness” … until it then falls within the “Highly Controversial” camp.

I immediately related to those case study results—I personally stay away from those types of Facebook posts… once I comment, and get the inevitable barrage of notifications of the following post engagements, it’s just mentally draining. So I just avoid them. Makes sense many others do too.

Thanks Derek for the info! The most important tip is the entertainment tip, IMHO!

I like your 20/80 rule, more time promoting than writing. Considering several viewers will only skim your article or glance through the content, this seems more strategic than ever. On this Speaking of Wealth podcast I am constantly hearing advice on marketing and creating content, but I really enjoyed this blog on actually getting your material to go viral!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! It seems that every book, article, or “guru” say’s the same damn thing – “Content is King.” Really! It’s no secret that you have to be different, be engaging, and give people what they want to go viral.

Great article!

Hi Derek, Just downloaded the pdf.
A viral content attract more comments and as well more traffic, if you have a great content without it reaching more audience, is like writting it for yourself and seems like a time wastage and, getting it viral makes it more useful.

I think Derek was saying 1 week creating content PLUS 4 weeks promoting it, for a total of 5 weeks…
