Where can I learn about viral marketing?

Where can I learn about Marketing, right now?

• Looking for various sources of marketing knowledge to improve my Marketing skills and expertise. Most online courses are either starting a few months away or only offer unstructured lectures.

• Answer:

  I'm just gonna prattle off a few in no particular order... - http://adwords.blogspot.com/ to get your feet wet on Google's search, display and other advertising opportunities - http://www.seomoz.org/blog for seo and sem advertising - http://mixergy.com/ always has interviews with entrepreneurs about how they were able to market & grow their businesses.  Info varies from strategy to tactics. - 37signals did a nice series on AB testing http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2977-behind-the-scenes-highrise-marketing-site-ab-testing-part-1 http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2983-behind-the-scenes-ab-testing-part-2-how-we-test http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2991-behind-the-scenes-ab-testing-part-3-final - http://www.blackhatworld.com/ for some... scrappier techniques :) - http://blog.mixrank.com/ I can personally vouch for the founder Ilya.  Cut his teeth in affiliate marketing and has built a cool tool to help companies monitor their competitors' display ads. - Sean Ellis for strategy http://startup-marketing.com/ - Seth Godin for philosophy http://sethgodin.typepad.com/ - Peter Theil's lecture on distribution channels at http://blakemasters.tumblr.com/post/22405055017/peter-thiels-cs183-startup-class-9-notes-essay - The book "Ogilvy on Advertising" or other works by David Ogilvy - And finally, not to be overly self-promotional, but I started a blog where I'd like to pass along some of my learning thus far :) http://marketinghead.tumblr.com/
