Have you ever seen this video? I am guessing if you have ever been on the internet or watched a video on Youtube you are familiar with “Chocolate Rain” or a number of other videos out there. These videos are called viral videos, for they move through the internet like a virus.

The idea of the viral video is great for Social media marketing as it is doing the same job: creating a lot of buzz. Take the “Chocolate Rain” video for instance, it has been viewed nearly 45 million times on Youtube alone!! That is not even counting its views on other sites, or the duplicate videos that have been produced and added to the video sites. These videos catch our attention and we remember what happens and then we talk about it.

Viral Videos and Social Media marketing can work very well together as they both work on the same premise of creating buzz through word of mouth via the internet. if you are smart enough, you can even create a viral marketing video, one that sells your product in such a fun and unique way, and gets people talking.

For Fun we would like to share a couple of our favorite viral videos with you:
