Viral Adverts

Viral advertising is where adverts are made could be electronicly where they are put up on the internet on webpages or on videos etc. This saves money as you don't have to mass produce the advert, you would only have to make one that can then be put anywhere. Also, as the internet is used by a lot of the population it is easy for anyone to see the adverts. Or could be in the real world, where people would be able to see in physical form.
