I wrote this blog piece a couple of months ago and it’s generated 35,000 unique views…by far the largest viewing of all my posts. Quite remarkable results. What is it about these kind of posts that pulls eyeballs? And what can we learn from them. Well like I said in my original post…let’s admit something… but let’s whisper it. Sex sells.
There… I said it. And I know we all wish that wasn’t the case. We know it’s smutty… it’s a cheap shot at making us interested in a product… but let’s be honest. It sure as hell works.
Not only did Smartwater sign up Jennifer Aniston, they also produced a spoof ‘Jennifer Aniston Sex Tape’ video, which when it appeared on Google search rankings probably got many people rather hot under the collar as they feverishly clicked on the link with their fingers.
Sadly for them, upon viewing it’s nothing more than the actress promoting the water by poking fun at what constitutes a hit on the internet. But it sure lured over 9 million of you in, and counting.
