❌ DON'T post your track once (1/5)
📉 Struggling artists:
They only post a few times and stop, afraid their followers are “over it.”
📈 Viral artists:
They keep posting because only 5% of followers see each post. More posts = more chances to blow up.
❌ DON'T say "out now!" (2/5)
📉 Struggling artists:
They rely on boring hooks like “new music out now” which no one engages with.
📈 Viral artists:
Use the top-performing hooks so that their content connects with the right listeners and actually makes them want to follow & stream (Get daily content ideas & hooks gaining artists millions of views 🎉)
❌ DON'T make your content about you (3/5)
📉 Struggling artists:
Their content feels like their asking people for a favor.
📈 Viral artists:
Create content that uses their music to relate to people and make them engage. (Here are 2 examples: one, two)
❌ DON'T wait until release day (4/5)
📉 Struggling artists:
Spend weeks on new music and cross their fingers that people will show up to stream on release day.
📈 Viral artists:
They test track ideas in their content, see what pops, and build hype before release. No guessing. Just results.
❌ DON'T wait for content ideas (5/5)
📉 Struggling artists:
Don't know what to post and waste hours scrolling looking for content ideas that ultimatley flop.
📈 Viral artists:
They use proven content ideas tailored to their sound and goals. (Like these.)
💯 Remember:
Going viral isn’t about luck - it’s about strategy.
Start thinking like a viral artist and watch your content (and music) take off.
Stay Creative,
