5 ideas of how to make a video go viral

In my research about viral videos on the web, I was able condense some good ideas of how to make a video go viral. Check it out:
 
1.    The best videos are usually those that do not exceed 3/5 minutes. As thousands of new videos are placed on the web every minute, you have little time to attract the attention of your target reader.
2.    If you want to create a viral video, you should take into account that it needs to be provocative, interesting and unique.
3.    Optimize your videos with tags and a title that is easily found by most readers looking for videos in this niche. Create an attractive title and if necessary, change the title in the future to even more clicks and visitors.
4.    Create a series of videos. If your first video is a success, all readers will want to come back to see the other ones.
5.    Submit your video from a variety of video online websites (not only YouTube). Here are some video websites:

·    Collegehumor
·    Funny or Die
·    Life Leak
·    Metacafe
·    Dailymotion
·    MySpace TV
·    Break
