Event Overview
The thrill of finding an amazing website is as exciting as they come. You forward the site to your friends, who in turn forward it to their friends and suddenly a viral site is born. And you're always left thoroughly entertained, but cursing yourself for not having created it first.
Sound familiar?
The formula for creating successful web content isn't easy, or we'd all be doing it. In addition to the je ne sais quoi, there's also a bit of science involved. And who better to teach the secrets to virality than Emerson Spartz, web prodigy and viral whiz with over 160 million monthly page views under his belt?
In this Dabble class you'll learn everything you need to create a site worthy of a tsunami of likes and shares, including:
-Tips, tricks and hacks for generating more viral traffic
-Why people share, or don’t share, content
-How to measure virality: understanding the “Viral Coefficient”
-The science of virality: how ideas spread through networks
-Exposing myths about virality
& more.
All students will walk away inspired to take the leap from LiveJournal blog only their mother reads to smashing internet success.

Tom R.Reviewed on 03/22/13Slightly positive experience. Emerson provides great insight into some tips & tricks to becoming viral and where to find good content. However, his experience seems to be with companies with already LARGE followings and was little help to smaller companies with small followings.
The presentation was funny, slightly unorganized, but overall helpful. Thank you.Slightly positive experience.
