3-Step Formula for Viral Videos

Viral videos happen when you nail three things in order. First, your first three

seconds must stop the scroll. Use a bold visual or statement that makes zero sense

without watching more. Second, deliver value fast. Whether it's teaching,

entertaining, or shocking, give people a reason to stay every five seconds.

Third, end with a pattern interrupt. Drop an unexpected twist or callback

that makes viewers immediately want more. This formula trains the algorithm to

push your content because watch time and completion rate are the only metrics that actually matter

for growth.
