Virurl

VIRURL is an online marketplace that allows brands to create instant viral advertising campaigns on the web. The VIRURL platform enables marketers to launch viral campaigns by compensating Internet users to share videos, articles, music, and other media with their friends via email, social networks, and anywhere else on the web.

The immense value created for brands through peer-to-peer sharing on the web is unmatched by any form of marketing in history. VIRURL is a tool built to help marketers create this powerful yet elusive effect by incentivizing sharing behavior among consumers.

The VIRURL tool enables brands to leverage the millions of web users to begin the online social sharing process. Marketers simply visit VIRURL.com, create an account, determine a cost per click based on their budget, and post their content to the site. VIRURL users are compensated for each click they direct to that content, whether it be via email, Twitter, Facebook, or any approved social vehicle. This “shotgun” approach to marketing gives brands a powerful tool to syndicate their content online.
