You have a WordPress site, you're writing all this content, you're building links, you're getting all these social shares, but stuff just isn't going viral. What should you do?
No worries, in this article, we are going to share with you three WordPress plugins that are going to help your WordPress site go viral.
Hi there, and welcome back to Serendipity Marketing. We're a digital marketing agency with a mission to help small businesses grow by applying psychology to their marketing strategies.
Before we get started, please go ahead and follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, or Instagram.
So, let’s get straight to the plugins.
1. Click to Tweet
It's really simple to use and you probably have heard about this plugin before, but we don't know why most people don't use it.
We've tried using it, it works well for us. If you already have a big Twitter audience, you don't need it as much. But when you don't have as big of a Twitter audience, it works really well.
So, every time you start a new blog, use it because it helps us just get right off the ground and go viral, especially on Twitter.
What you want to do is when you have factoids or quotes within your article, do the Click to Tweet, that way as people are reading, you can end up generating way more social shares and way more Twitter traffic.
But, there's a trick to this plugin. Most people are just using it once or twice throughout their blog posts.
If you're writing 2,000-plus word blog posts, which you should, because if you look at the articles on page one of Google, the ones that rank the highest, they typically have over 2,000 plus words. As you're writing these long, in-depth evergreen articles, spread the Click to Tweet throughout the article.
Make sure it's in the introduction, make sure it's in the body, and make sure it's in the conclusion.
When you do that, you'll generate way more traffic. If you only do it once or twice, you will not get as many Twitter shares and traffic.
Make sure you leave a comment with your Twitter handle. If we like your content, we'll follow you, but we'll also help you go more viral if we start pushing out your content to our audience. No guarantee that we’re going to follow you, but there is a good chance.

2. Referral Candy
Have you ever signed up for Uber or used it? Have you ever seen the thing where it says, "Hey, invite a friend." Not only will they get ten pounds worth of Uber credit, but you will also get ten pounds worth of Uber credit.
You can do the same thing. You don't even have to sell physical products. You can create info products and instead of saying, "Giving it away for free", you can say "Hey, you want access to this info product? Make sure you invite someone. If they sign up, you'll also get access."
You can do a lot of cool, interesting things like that to really grow your user base and just make it explode.
It's simple, it's effective, it works, we've tested it out. Companies like Uber use it all the time. Companies like Dropbox use it and they're multibillion-dollar companies.
So, make sure you check out Referral Candy.
3. Invite Referral
Have you ever seen those things online where people are launching a product or a service and they're saying, "Hey, this will unlock once we get x amount of shares."
You can do the same thing.
Encourage your community to share your content saying "Hey do you guys want all this bonus and these cheat sheets? Well, you have to unlock the content. You've got to share it and once we hit 200, 300, 500, we'll gladly unlock it."
It's a really easy strategy to just get way more traffic without doing much more work.
Now, you don't really need 20 or 50 or 100 WordPress plugins. Just test out these three ones if you want to help your WordPress site to go more viral.
