Want Your Social Media Videos to Go Viral? Here's What Works in 2026
Posted

If you're creating social media videos for your business but not getting the views you want, a few simple changes can make a big difference. Marketing expert Tim Vertz shares the top strategies helping businesses grow their reach on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and beyond.

The secret starts with short, fast-paced videos. Keep content under 45 seconds, use captions, and add frequent camera angle changes, graphics, or B-roll to keep viewers engaged. Next, grab attention immediately with a strong hook in the first few seconds by highlighting a common problem or mistake your audience wants to solve.

Finally, don't forget a clear call to action. Whether it's asking viewers to comment, save the video, or request a free resource, engagement signals help social media algorithms push your content to more people.
