Going viral is easy but going viral constantly needs loads of work, and here are some of the tips to create viral content for the video platforms.
(SHORT VIDEOS)
- 🧵
Going viral in the Web2 video platforms is about following a formula until you get professional at it, very unsure if the Web3 video platforms will try to replicate the algorithms of the Web2 Channels but if they do, here are some of the important things you need to know.
There are 3 rules to create a viral video, the users need to watch more than 50% of your video, they must get hooked from the beginning, first 3-5 secs max, and then use a good song and hashtag that is RELATED TO THE TOPIC, and this is crucial.
Making people watch more than 50% of your video is a trick work but not hard to learn, basically you must give the user a reason to stay in the video at least to get something in return, that’s why you’ll see many videos that start with “this is how you do x thing”, or videos that the first 3 seconds is a clip from the full video, usually the most interesting part, and then you want to stay in that video until you get to that part.
Another trick to hook the viewers to stay along with the video is bringing more information into the video usually with images, and fast editing, since we always get distracted and are ready to jump to another video, if suddenly there is an image there, or texts, people stay to read it. By the way, that’s one of the reasons all of the videos now have captions, to keep people focused reading and not jump to the next one!
Finally music and Hashtags. It’s always crucial to use the right music to your niche, yes trending sounds will help your video go viral, this is a fact, but if the trending sound is trending for the soccer niche, it’s not very smart to try using it for a video talking about crypto. Same for hashtags, some people thought using trending hashtags such as #foryou #fyp was a certain success, but the truth is you should be using trending hashtags for your niche! And you should always try new hashtags as they get old and stop getting attention.
These are some of the main things you should always keep in mind when creating a good video that is willing to go viral, of course, there are many more tricks that I would love to share here in the future, but for now keep this as a mantra, good introduction, make sure to lock people’s attention along the video, and always use the proper hashtags and the sounds.
Hope you appreciated the content, and as in every good video, try always adding a call to action when fitted, such as this one, follow if you want to learn more about content creation :)
📢 Excited to share some insights on authentication methods and their role in safeguarding our digital accounts in today's digital world! 🔒🌐 Let's dive in!
1️⃣ Password-based Authentication: We rely on unique character combinations known only to us. It's crucial to use strong, complex passwords and enable multi-factor authentication (MFA) whenever possible.
2️⃣ Biometric Authentication: This method offers a high level of security by utilizing unique physical or behavioral traits. Biometrics, like fingerprints or facial recognition, are now common in smartphones and devices, providing both convenience and security.
3️⃣ Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Adding an extra layer of security, 2FA requires two different authentication factors, such as a password and a one-time verification code sent to a registered device. Stay one step ahead of unauthorized access!
4️⃣ Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Going beyond 2FA, MFA requires multiple authentication forms like passwords, biometric scans, and physical tokens. Ideal for high-security environments and sensitive applications.
5️⃣ Single Sign-On (SSO): Simplifying the authentication process, SSO enables access to multiple apps or services using a single set of credentials. Embrace convenience while promoting stronger security practices.
