[Build Great Backlinks] TITLE

Build Great Backlinks has posted a new item, 'You'll Cry Tears of Joy When You
Learn how Easy Viral Videos Can Be'

Posted by jennita
Today, I'm super-excited to introduce our latest product from Moz, MozWorthy!
It's a tool that takes your regular (perhaps even boring) videos, adds some
"oomph" and pizzazz, and makes it go viral.


With so much talk about content marketing on the riseâand guest posting
on the declineâwe wanted to build something that helps in both instances.
You make the videoâheck, it doesn't even have to be that greatâand
we do the rest.


Check out the video we used as the test. What started out as just a regular
old video, turned into a HUGE HIT around the world. In fact, it was the original
version of the "internet famous" FIRST KISS video.






You can jump in and give MozWorthy! a try now, or read a bit more about why we
made it, see some examples, and learn how it works.




Start using MozWorthy!



How it began

At the end of February, many of us at Moz participated in Ship It Week. This
was a time when we focused on using all our internal talent, enthusiasm, and fun
to collectively come together and innovate. This meant more than just coding and
building things, but working to build new ideas, frameworks, and anything else
we could imagine to innovate at Moz. MozWorthy! was one of the tools we created.


Our top-rated Ship It Week project is a tool that helps you learn the names of
all the Mozzers, called "Name That Mozzer." It was built as an internal tool
only, to help staff get to know others on the team. A big thanks to Brandon for
all the work he put into making Moz a better place!




Although that one was a favorite among staff, we knew that several other
projects would be used and loved by the community. For example, Peter Bray built
Zoom Profiler, a tool that allows users to very quickly analyze a competitor,
influencer, or customer to find their most important relationships, their top
tweets, and their top content sources.




At the same time, Evan came up with the idea of making it easier for people to
get their videos to go viral. As a team, we thought our customers would really
love it as well, so we jumped in full force: The product, design, dev, and
marketing teams got together to create something truly helpful!

How it works

Ok, ok, let's get down to the real dirt. How does this baby work?! It's quite
simple, and it only takes a few steps to find yourself in viral video world.



Upload your video to YouTube. (Right now, the tool only works with YouTube
videos, since it's still in its infancy. However, we plan on adding Vimeo,
Wistia, and other platforms soon.) If you already have a video on YouTube that
you'd like to use, that's great too.




Give it a basic title; you don't need anything fancy here. We'll do the work
for you!




Once your video is uploaded, head on over to mozworthy.moz.com to add the
link to your video and fill out a couple of key attributes.




Hit submit! Then we do the rest for you.


Viral title generator

Once you submit your video, we take it and process both the video and title.
Using super-special Moz data based on what words are the most clickable and
linkable, we create a viral title for you. A combination of your title,
attributes you added, and the addition of "highly viral keywords" will be used
to make your title as ahhMOZing as possible.

Video enhancements

But we don't want to stop at just the title. We also take your video and make
enhancements to it that will make people love it even more. Honestly, your video
doesn't even have to be all that good, and we'll make it great. I mean, everyone
wants to do mediocre work and press an easy button to make it awesome, right?

Increased social shares

Creating a great title and updating the video are all good and great. But what
you really want is for people to see it, right? Cool. We help with that too.
You'll see social shares across all the major platforms (Twitter, Facebook,
Google+, LinkedIn, YouTube) go up practically instantaneously.



A couple examples

Ok, I know you all well, and you're not going to settle until you see exactly
how it works. Which is cool, so I have a few examples to show you the kind of
virality I'm talking about here!


This One Weird Trick Will Keep You Energized All Day






This one is fairly straightforward, but wow, look at that title!








You'll Never Believe What This Former Philologist Caught on Video









This is just a short, simple video as you see. But with MozWorthy! we were
able to add oomph to the video, and make the title something that even your
grandmother will want to share.


So, what are you waiting for? Go check out MozWorthy! right now, and see what
we can do for your social shares!
