ViralContentBee.com: now with Flipboard
Ann Smarty gave us an early heads up about Viral Content Buzz (VCB) when it first launched. Now she has let us know that Viral Content Buzz has been rebranded to Viral Content Bee (still VCB).
I want to make sure no one missed that VCB allows you to get influencers to share your content to Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Tumblr, Mix and now Flipboard!
You can get more traffic, readers, followers and likes.
If you want influencers like us to share your content, use Viral Content Bee (VCB) so we’ll see it. You can greatly increase your followers.
To make this really easy, watch this new video made 7/23/19:
Why wouldn’t you want to promote your very best content? You really should start using ViralContentBee.com.

This is a really nice article. I find it so helpful and accurate. Getting influencers for you content is the best thing you can do for your website or blog. I didn’t know how to start, until i came across this post. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thanks for the share Gail! I heard about VCB from bizsugar but I am still wondering, how much traffic you actually get to your site after users share on their social profiles? From your experience, how much traffic can you get tou a page after the users from VCB have shared them?
Hi Tracey,
In the earlier days of social media, we got a lot of traffic from shares. But over time that has diminished. Today, VCB is more beneficial for becoming known and building relationships.
We see when others share our content, so we can follow them. If we want to start seeing more traffic, we have to stop just sharing and actually click through, read and comment.
The best strategy for doing that is to visit blogs in your own niche. Choose a short list — maybe 5 where you can visit often and 5 more where you will visit at least once or twice a month.
Each time you visit, comment. Personally, I choose CommentLuv-enabled blogs because they are the most likely to want to interact and the CommentLuv links give them and their readers a reason to come visit my site.
When I have consistently commented on other CommentLuv blogs even for a week I have doubled my REAL traffic. (Sadly, most bloggers don’t realize that 65-90+% of their traffic is bots and spammers.)
It is up to us to change that by changing what we’re focusing on. But being on Weebly, you are at a disadvantage there. Almost all bloggers switch to WordPress when they get serious.
But Automattic is trying to force Gutenberg on WordPress users, so those of us who never want to have to use that should be switching to ClassicPress so we don’t.
Automatic is the company that controls WordPress and now owns Tumblr.
To clarify, you can benefit from using CommentLuv on CommentLuv-enabled sites, but they get far less benefit from visiting your Weebly site.
So some won’t. Some will. I don’t know the percentage as I’ve never commented as a non-CommentLuv enabled site. I do publish on some, but I don’t comment from them.

You have shared a very good and educational content. I am using various social sites for more than 3 years to share the images of different types of Jute, cotton and non-woven bags which we developed in our factory with our site url and doing other SEO works to rank better.
Hi Gail, I was thrilled to see them ad Flipboard into the Mix there over at VCB! I use them almost daily to share great content and have mine shared in return as well. It works very well! Once in a while a Flipboard share doesn’t work but I report it and they do fix it.
I hope more people join VCB and help to make it even better in the near future!

Hi Keiran,
You’re very welcome. The reason many of us are well-known today is because we used Twitter early on when it was easier to find each other. Then Ann and Gerald created Viral Content Bee. And there used to be another tool (no longer working) that was similar.
Used together, they were even more powerful. We also use sites like BizSugar Sharing. You can read about it in BizSugar Sharing: How to Get More Views for Your Content
You can also meet serious bloggers and small businesses in BizSugar Mastermind. Read about it in Why You Should Join Me in the BizSugar Mastermind Community.
And we have also have a Blogger Mastermind Skype group explained in WANTED: Bloggers Interested in Collaborating to Increase Their Incomes

ViralContentBee really works. Because I use it, plus JustRetweet and MavSocial, 2 of the most top posts on AllBusiness in 2016 were mine. You can see their list in The Best Entrepreneurship Advice of the Year.

I have tried to promote a fashion brand but the amount you get shares is very though in this niche.. we had about 10 shares in the last 13 days
Hi Thalassa,
The cure for that is to invite other fashion brands to join. Something else you can do is use Dlvr.it to feed content from relevant other sites to your social accounts so they recognize you and may share for you. Or you can manually do it if you want to be very selective and have the time.

Just go to Viral Content Buzz and sign up. Then start clicking. You’ll figure it out quickly, and if you don’t you can ask me on Skype (username growmap) or ask questions here.
I have listen that social media selling plays a very important role in ranking of your keywords, If you have got additional social sharing then Google provides you additional price
Does ViralContentBuzz support Google +1?s Gail? i used to be simply on the positioning, and that i don’t see it as associate possibility
Hi Lavindra,
VCB does not have G+ integration yet, but they’re working to get it. You can get +1s using JustRetweet today. That last couple of campaigns I ran there got over 30 +1s each. I recommend using them both for maximum reach.
Disclosure: I do paid work for Chris Fong who bought JustRetweet from the original developer and I collaborate regularly with Ann Smarty and Gerald Weber who created Viral Content Buzz. I use both systems because they work and I believe them to be beneficial to bloggers and small business – not because either of them has ever paid me to use them. They don’t.
The most important is the content. It really is the foundation for our site. Good content actually helps the reader amused, and will share their spread.

The key thing about a social sharing platform is that there is content, sharing options, and a choice on what is shared and what is not shared.

Hi James,
It is absolutely true that more social sharing helps your content rank better. You can prove this for yourself by resharing an older post. If it gets new shares and comments it can start bringing in traffic again.

Does ViralContentBuzz support Google +1’s Gail? I was just on the site, and I don’t see it as an option. Regardless, sounds like an awesome contest and I’m testing the site out to see how it works for me.
Not yet, Josh, but they’re working on adding it. JustRetweet does already support it so if you use both you get a different mix of people sharing your content on overlapping social networks.
