Widgets: Let's Go Viral!

by The House Of Business

Viral Marketing

 

We've all heard of viral marketing. One of it's main characteristics is that content is placed somewhere and distributed not by the author but by people who view it there and that this process can be unpredictably succesfull.So: why not help change your fortunes in the simplest of ways: with a widget!

 

Widgets

 

An excellent way to achieve viral distribution is through widgets. On our Widget Page that I've just created you can find some examples: from buttons to click on to Twitterfeeds to video. All kinds of content can go into a widget. These widgets are resizable, customizable and can be put on any social media platform, blog or site (Feel free to do so). With these widgets you could add some of the functionality you are familiar with from our site to your own.

 

Creating Your Own Widgets

 

If you would like to create your own widgets like the ones I've just made, I can recommend using http://www.widgetbox.com This is a professional platform where you can create all kinds of widgets and even applications.

 

Ambassador Program

 

If you would like to embed any number of banners, text adds etc. to monetize your site, you may want to consider our Ambassador program. You can earn a great commission on sales and choose between text-links, presentations and all kinds of banners.

Free Widgets

 

If you join our free network The HOB.Biz: Business & Social Media! you can choose from hundreds of widgets to try out on your free Personal Profile: from business news, to Twitter Feeds, games and more. Anything is possible with widgets because they are containers that can be filled with whatever you come up with.
