Hi Everyone, Michael here...

Have you ever wondered how some affiliates and online digital entrepreneurs have major successes online much faster...and how it feels like overnight?

I'll keep this short...

Follow The TREND(s)!

Done. Bye.

WAIT!

I'm not done. What do I mean by follow the trends?

I'm sure for you experienced digital experts like myself are very familiar with this so hang on tight (you may need a refresher)...

You can climb to the top of your niche/industry much faster if you shoot for what's "viral", stick with me.

Viral content doesn't have to be cat videos and dancing people on TikTok, it can be what "sticks" right now in this moment with your audience, and what can be made evergreen...

But let's back away from content for a second and how to deliver a powerful message with the right deliveribilty by reverse engineering how to get there.

There are 4-5 major components you MUST look at if you want to Maximize your views, gain an audience must faster, get more leads (and higher quality ones), as well as sales, and they are A:

1.Trending Product/Service

2. Trending Offer

3. Trending Niche

4. Trending Platform

5. Trending Message/Delivarability

Listen, I know the key isn't always to go "viral" all the time, but where there's PROPER viral growth, there's opportunity to put yourself in front of...

So if you're struggling to find a great product/service to promote to the right niche with the right offer on a trending platform to share your unique message...

Then think about what's actually 1.Working right now 2. What will be working In the future and 3.What Can be made evergreen trending content.

Honestly, this is the key to just about everything you'll do online, it's not complex like a math equation or some "secret formula" it's just how it goes.

For ex:

I went into a new niche several months ago and blogged about it since blogging is my better and favorite super power of all the platforms...

But it took time, a lot of it. The content wasn't all "trendy" per se, however, the content that was "trending" hit the most...

It brought me the most amount of views, and because I knew it would stick long term, I kept creating cluster posts around it.

But besides just blogging, I entered the video world in this niche, with YouTube videos - I transferred written content to video content that was considered "viral trendy" content, but I knew that wasn't enough.

I jumped on Google trends and viewed what was being talked about right now and guess what I did?

I created content around it, and for the most part my content views, engagement went up. Then I did the TikTok thing (since video is huge right now and will be for time to come), and found out the type of content people were already producing..

And guess what I did? Again, I modeled what was already working but added my own unique take and my account began blowing up one video after the next, and just did more of what worked, how?

Well if you were listening earlier, I chose a trending platform, I had a trending message with the right deliverability at the right time that also considered "viral" (this is KEY!), I had the right niche to ensure my progressions, and I had the right service with the right offer in place.

another ex: Neil Patel.

While I do believe his SEO content is really helpful and has helped me in many ways, would you consider him "the best" or a REAL SEO?

Maybe, maybe not, there are likely other people out there who are far better, but what does the man do better than everyone else?

He knows how to market Himself! He chooses the trending product/service to market, he has the right offer in place for his audience (usually beginners), he has the right niche, on the trending platform that by the way already has helped grow his audience, with the right message and deliverability.

Whether you think he's a "masterful seo" or not diminishes a bit less and less as his video goes on and you start to think more about "what's in it for me"...

And if he gets that dialed down like he usually does, all else falls into place.

So when you think about what you're doing, run these 4-5 trending points by your mind, and also make sure you overall understand what people are searching for right now that can also be evergreen later on, and that's how you will get ahead much faster and keep your momentum building.

You DON'T always have to just stick to blogging, in fact, you can benefit from using other platforms that you like "less"...

Heck, I went live today on TikTok and I HATE just standing in front of a camera as an introvert/ambviert without at least a share screen to take up most of my video, but YOU have to be willing to do what's uncomfortable to grow!

Plus, it's the platform of all that began calling to me heavily so did I really have another choice at the moment? Sure, but why would I keep stopping what works just to go do something "I like" and to sit in a corner, feel comfortable while wondering why the heck others are crushing it and you're not?

Concistency is key no matter how viral of a piece of content/ad you make but it's not enough alone to tell some to "be consistent and keep producing content until your breakthrough so you finally know what works"...

You have to be willing to reverse engineer in many times and work with viral content first that you can continue being consistent at over time whether you're next piece of content goes viral or not.

Also, this is a very commonly abusued thing the make money online digital education space "greedy gurus" will take advantage of, so be SUPER careful who you learn from and buy from especially.
