    Looking forward to replies on this question myself. Though viral isn't part of my marketing strategies - it might come in handy anytime soon.

    The most effective method usually depends on the niche, but you'll find that more often than not, people tend to be visual (supposedly 65% of the population). If your campaign is able to provide content that is both visually appealing and unique, people will buzz about it.

    Here are some of the more effective campaigns:

    The key is not to be overly concerned about medium so much as the most effective way to get your idea across.

    WOM = Word of Mouth.

    I've often wondered about offline promotion to enhance a website or blog. I considered making up business cards and dropping them in random locations - coffee shops, restaurants, where people pick up the newspaper, with the tip I leave a waiter, etc. -- anywhere that it will be noticed. The last time I was at the beach I wrote my URL in the sand. Things like that might result in exposure. I suppose there's a lot of ideas like that out there - we just need to be creative.

    As for making something viral, I honestly can't seem to figure that one out. My mission is to create something that results in tons of links (linkbait) but it's more difficult than it sounds!
