I think the best kind of virality is a product that people like so much that they just want to tell people about it.

Once a viral program gets started, there is nothing to stop it.

Most of my stuff hasn't gone viral. I have been successful on YouTube and I'm very proud of the stuff that I've done, but compared to the people who are actual internet stars and making a living off of it, my views are nothing.

It's very easy to make a viral video, but longevity and consistency, that's hard.

If you become a viral star, that is terrific!

With my channel, and what people associate with Internet, most people think it goes viral, you become this huge thing super quick. I never had an explosion or a huge thing. It's just been something that has progressively been growing. It's been building.

By giving unusual people an easy way to find one another, the Internet has also enabled them to pool rare talents, resources, and voices, then push their case into public consciousness. The response, in many cases, is a kind of hysteria.

The number one question I'm asked as a YouTuber every day is, 'How can I get my videos out there; how can I make my videos go viral?'

I came up with Hotmail's viral marketing idea.

As far as what makes a viral video, then it's gotta be something that you've either never seen before, a fresh piece of comedy, or something that relates to something topical.
