Viral Ebook Marketing

Viral ebook marketing can be a wonderful way to create massive levels of unique and targeted traffic, without doing a lot of the work yourself. Of course, one of the things that is most important is that the ebook you create is something that people would want to give away.

Viral ebook marketing of course is the exercise of giving away or selling an ebook that is designed to continue to be given away or sold by the individuals to whom you gave or sold the ebook, and contains links to your own website or affiliate programs. This allows the book to become viral very quickly, especially if there are affiliate links within the ebook.

For example, you might create a free giveaway ebook that is in turn given away 1000 times. If you have loaded the ebook with links to your web site or squeeze page, you will receiving continuing traffic to your site that far exceeds the impact of your initial marketing effort. Ebooks are not the easiest thing to create, but many marketers desire free ebooks to give away as opt in incentives – and so this works good for you and for them.

You get the exposure, they have an incentive they don’t have to pay to get. So how do you do it? There are 2 steps to creating a viral giveaway ebook campaign. 1) Write a short ( less than 15 pages) ebook designed to be given away and 2) Give it away. I know that sounds simple, but really it is. And creating an ebook can be as simple as compiling some of your best articles into one document, and turning it into a pdf.
