Have any of your posts have gone viral (or which of your posts brought the most traffic)?

I earned 30,000+ hits with this silly pic last April. This mind candy brings in the crowds. The theory is they will then stumble across my important posts.

I decided to shed a new light on it and a few others for those new to Rob's Megaphone: www.robsmegaphone.com. My mission is "Where writing and fun collide"

My posts that have gone viral have all been to fight against child abuse. I have no clue how many hits each received.

I especially like the one that says "For illiteracy help please write..."

  Did you use the social media to market it?

  Yup and some wasn't even me. I started w/ Stumble and BC those were the only two I promoted on. Next thing I know it was tweeted, friend feeded, direct mailed, and even copyright infringed. The last was a complete suprise. I'd never been infringed before made me feel special.

None of my posts have ever gone viral. If one does I sincerely hope it's on my free hosted onecoolsite blogging tips blog, because I don't want to deal with the bandwidth issues and extra payments involved.

No, I always use protection.

Oh, you mean my blog? Nope.
