If there is one word commonly used today, the word has to be viral.
Yes, viral. We live in a socially media crazed world where within a minute, a video, quote, song, article, or product can spread to millions of people globally.
What this means is that if you use the social media platforms at your disposal, millions of people worldwide could see, like, comment, or enjoy the funny video of your cat or your child singing and dancing to Karaoke or even you doing something that millions of people would love to view and share.
With that said, did you know that YouTube is the biggest social media platform surpassing other social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter?
What makes this platform so special and globally liked is the simple fact that you can find videos on almost any topic known to man.
Still do not believe me? Head over to YouTube and type in 'poop' and see what comes up.
Unless your video violates upload rules, you can upload anything on the platform.
