Facebook - Viral Marketing & Viral Sharing Facebook Marketing

Do you want your Facebook posts to go viral?

Of course you do.

Who wouldn’t want to dramatically increase the reach of their posts?!

Going viral is the holy grail of content marketing -- and any business owner marketing their company online wants it.

But getting there isn't always easy.

Today, I'll outline 5 steps you can take to improve the chances of your Facebook posts going viral.
Your Facebook Posts Will Probably Go Viral if You Follow These 5 Steps

1. Get Personal

You've got to get personal on your page if you expect your Facebook posts to go viral.

Consider the strong engagement you receive from your Facebook friends when you post on your profile about:

    a job promotion
    yours or your child's wedding
    your newborn baby
    losing weight
    high school or college graduations
    personal achievements

Personalizing the updates on your business page can have a similar effect. Your fans will connect with those posts on a deeper level & are more likely to Like, comment on or share your posts with friends.

Many of them have experienced something similar or they just want to be there to support your happy news.

2. Use Viral Photo Finder

Here's a confession:

I’ve recently used Post Planner’s viral photo finder to locate some of the most shared & most Liked photos on Facebook to publish on my profile & on pages that I own.
Not too bad considering that it took only a couple minutes to find & publish the photo.

You may see greater engagement depending on the size of your community & how much your fans engage with your page.


3. Ask for Help Sharing Your Posts

It can be tough getting your posts in front of a large audience on Facebook.

The news feed algorithm buries your content to the point that your updates don't even reach most of your fans.

So ask family members, friends & customers for help pushing your posts. Sometimes just a little nudge is needed for a post to gain the momentum it needs to snowball.

Most people won't mind helping you with this small request.

4. Timing is Everything

Like with many things in life, TIMING is EVERYTHING.

When should you post on Facebook?

Rather than blindly following advice from some blog post you find, dive deep into your Facebook Insights to see when your fans are most active online.

Then test different posts at the most opportune times to see which content gets the most engagement from fans.

Then continue testing fresh posts to determine which updates might someday go viral.

Your Facebook Insights make it easy to determine the best times to post on your page.

WHEN you update your status is critical if you expect lots of people to share your post.
5. Run a Facebook Ad

Sometimes you’ll have to spend a few bucks to get posts in front of your fans.

It's harsh, I know!

But you've got to do what you've got to do, especially with Facebook limiting the reach of your status updates.

You don't need to pay to boost every post. But you may want to with the most important ones -- the posts with the most potential for getting shared.
