Go Viral! Yes! One of the interesting things that can happen to content creator is when you see your content going viral and it engages a lot of audience.
This will enable the creator to gather audience, followers and at the same time, get some revenue from his monetized handles.
As content creator, I am going to examine with practical approach in this article on the features of content that go viral. While some of these features vary from one to another, it is best for you to choose which one is ease to implement for you. Below are the features:
Relatability
One of the features of a viral content is relatability. Viral material frequently connects with a large audience by referencing feelings and experiences that are shared by all.
Relatable material strikes a chord with viewers, evoking a shared experience that encourages sharing, whether it is via humor, happiness, or nostalgia.
Therefore, your content must be able to relate to. If this is not a shared experience or something related to it, kindly make the imagation of your story easy for your audience as well as potential audience to imagine.
If your content is able to relate to, then you have one of the great features of a viral content and therefore, your content becomes a potential content to go viral.
Effect on Emotion
Another feature is effect on emotion. Strong emotions, such as wonder, empathy, or laughter, increase the likelihood of content becoming viral.
People are more deeply connected when there is emotional resonance, which encourages them to share the material and propagate the emotional experience. Therefore, rely on that to relate your content and have a potential way to having feedback, sharing, comments (can be arugements) and others
Originality
Novelty draws the eye. Content that is original, distinctive, and breaks the mold by offering an alternative viewpoint stands out in the competitive internet market. When someone sees something for the first time, they are more likely to share it.
Therefore, your content must be original and unique. Whether blog posts, videos, memes and others, make them original, therefore you become the creator of the content.

Accessibility and Simplicity
Content that is clear-cut and easy to understand usually does well. A large audience can quickly consume and distribute viral content because of its ease of sharing. Complexity frequently yields to clarity and simplicity.
No need to make your things too overwhelming that you find it difficult to deliver your message. Make it as simple as you can and stick to your own concept, your patter of relating your content to your audience.
For video creators, have a slang unique to your channel. It can be in form of greeting your fans of at the end of the video. This will let them relate with you more and find your content easy to understand.
For memes and others, have your brand design attached to your memes, and finally for blog owners, do a lot of research before taking your laptop to write. By so doing, you have engaged yourself in profitable learning and writing a small portion out of all what you have learned won’t be an issue.
Time and Significance
It’s important to be prompt. Viral content is more likely to be inspired by pop culture, trends, or current events. The audience is drawn in when one remains current and in step with global events.
Make your content as timely as you can. There are millions of content that are actually more interesting and less interesting than yours. So to make your audience stay forever, make your things timely.
These are the features of a viral content but not lmited to these. Telling your audience to share, repying them in the comment sections individually, giveways and many others also contribute.
