How To Go Viral: Lessons From The Most Shared Content of 2015

How To Go Viral: Lessons From The Most Shared Content of 2015 | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Why does certain content get shared so much and go viral? Last year we looked at 100m posts and highlighted the common characteristics of viral content. This year we added over 1 billion articles to our content database and looked again at the most shared posts. Our analysis shows that viral posts remain outliers, and unfortunately there is no magic formula to go viral.

However, there are insights from viral content that we can use to improve the shareability and engagement of our own content. Below we have provided examples of the most shared posts of 2015 and tried to break down why they went viral. If you haven’t got time to review them individually, you can jump straight to our conclusions.

Jeff Domansky's insight:

Great examples of why blogging posts go viral.
