Great Compilation Of Viral Videos Goes Viral
Sometimes its easier to remix existing material then creating something on your own. Even though this video isn’t directly brand related, I’d love to highlight this video to the viewers of ViralBlog.
Continue reading for detailed information, statistics and insights on the video.
The video has been watched almost 3.500.000 times, been commented on 3.600+ times, favored almost 32.000 times and rated 9.000+ times. And all of these in about 1.5 months.
A great reason why this video went viral is the title: 100 GREATEST HITS OF YOUTUBE IN 4 MINUTES. With this title, even though the caption annoys me, viewers get direct insights what to see in this video. 100 greatest of the online video library in only 4 minutes! Gave me a wow-effect (must have been one hell of an edit) and a I-must-see-this-video thought when reading the title.
The video includes all different kind of viral moments. From “RickRoll” till “keyboard cat“, from “commercial virals” till “sneezing pandas” and from “diet coke + mentos” till “Charly bit my finger!“. All of these can be found in this less then four minutes of a roller coaster down internet memory lane.
When checking out the statistics among audiences globally, some funny details are revealed:
The video has been watched most in Russia, Eastern Europe and North America. Most of the videos are from these countries, so these extra views can be explained. However, I do think the lack of views in African countries are odd. Also, the age and gender of the dominant viewer (male between 25 and 54 years old) can have an explanation: most likely, this group has been raised with these videos while the newer generation (the youth between 14 and 24 years old) haven’t touched the videos in the compilation movie that much.
