P.S. – ViralHosts is still growing strong and has now more than 11,000 active members. If you haven’t joined yet, make sure you do join now before you realize what you’re missing out on!

Haven’t heard of it yet? It’s a cPanel-based hosting system with a script auto-installer and site builders. You can now build a strong online presence in no time! Like ViralURL, it has a built-in list builder and mailer and traffic generation tools.

However, the real value is in the upgrade! ViralHosts also has a system mailer for you to email 3,000 to 6,000 random members every 3 days. Explode your leads and take your marketing to the next level! Time to take action!

We have some more great news! ViralHosts is growing fast. We are soon reaching 6,000 active members! How good is that? Congratulations on being part of this success! If you haven’t joined yet, make sure you do so at ViralHosts.com. We want to reach another milestone before we fully launch the site, but it’s just a matter of time thanks to your support.

Once again, we are sorry for the downtime the site experienced a few days ago. Our domain name got suspended but our team managed to switch it from GoDaddy to NameCheap in a record time. We apologize for all inconvenience caused.

Have you set up a site already? We would love to hear from you. Your feedback is more than welcome! Feel free to leave a comment. How about the system mailer? You know that you can email from 3,000 to 6,000 random members every 3 days! We only got good feedback so far. It is important for us to ensure that the list you send your emails to is responsive.

Referral contest

Don’t forget about the referral contest. Some members are climbing the ladder big time! At the time we write this blog post, the Top 5 member referrers are:

1. Brian Dew
2. Frank Salinas
3. Todd Gross & Mark Lareau
4. James Grandstaff
5. Kenneth Kraakstad

Great job guys! Check out the full ladder!

You can make it to the top, no doubt about that. The more members you refer, the more chances you have to make it to the top (it is as simple as that), and what you win with this contest is above the commissions earned with your referrals! Keep in mind that anyone can get a prize, you don’t need to be a big shot!

By referring other members, you earn commissions, AND the referred members go into your downline, AND the members they refer too, down to 5 to 7 levels deep! We have a range of tools that you can use to promote ViralHosts. Simply log into your account and click Promotion Section.

Training video and eBook

If you haven’t set up your site yet, check out our first training video, to set up your domain and FTP account. There are more to come.

We will also provide you with a free ebook to help you get started with ViralHosts. You will be able to rebrand it and add your affiliate link to it, offering you another effective means to promote ViralHosts. You can be sure that we’re doing our best to increase your conversion rate!

And don’t forget about the CPM earnings that you make with your site. ViralHosts pays you from 5 to 20 cents per thousand page views on your site and from 5 to 20 cents per 1,000 from all your referrals, depending on your membership level.

As you can see, there are many different ways to earn cash with ViralHosts. We hope you take full advantage of all the features the system offers! Even if you already have a site and don’t need hosting, ViralHosts remains a must-have. Why don’t you set up a site for additional inbound links? You know how important they are to search engines!

To your success,

Awesome FireFox Plugin:

Wow, we are very excited. We have just finished creating (and are already massively using it ourselves) a FireFox plugin for ViralURL… it’s called:  ViralPlugin

So step #1 is to install it! If you don’t use FireFox yet, you really should. It is a lot safer and faster then other browsers and you can get it free, here .

The plugin makes it super duper fast and easy to cloak links. To thank our almost 50,000 active members for your support and allowing us to make ViralURL what it is today, we wanted to also throw another awesome contest…

New Contest:

This time the contest will not only be for top referrers, but we will also make it for active plugin users (or people who cloak a lot of links even without using the plugin. ViralPlugin just makes it so much faster and easier).

So here are the contest rules. There are two contests running at the same time. Both will come to an end when the top referrer refers 500 new ViralURL members from the time the contest starts. The first contest is a referral contest and places will be determined by the number of referrals you make. Here are the prizes…

The second contest is a link cloaking contest. It works like this… the person with the most links with at least 10 unique visits in a day will win. This is on any given day over the period of the contest. We expect the contest to last about 30-45 days. The best approach to winning this one, is to cloak as many links as you can (never share a link if its not cloaked) with the cloaker (so easy with the ViralPlugin ) and then use it in places like Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, Forums, Blog Posts, Emails etc. Wherever you normally share links, simply use ViralURL cloaked links instead of normal ones.

The 10 visits needed on that day is to ensure that you are not just mass spamming links or mass creating links and not using them. Only cloak links that you plan on sharing and using. This will be a fun contest, and remember, each day you have a chance to better what you did on another day.

This contest ends when the first one does (when the first person gets to 500 new referrals). There are prizes for the top 10 finishers so it should be easy for you to get on the list! Here are the prizes for this part of the contest…

The contest begins May 29th Midnight EST (in about 15 hours from time of writing this) and you can see the standings of both contests by login and then click on ‘Earnings Section’ then ‘Referral Contest’… or simply login first, then visit this link:
http://ViralURL.com/member.area.contest.php

What do you think of the contest?

Don’t delay, get out there and win yourself some cash and prizes!
