When You Have a Final at 2, But Have to Direct Traffic at 2:30
For my Viral Content Challenge I created a meme with the objective for it to get at least 5 retweets and 20 likes. I reached out to other popular meme accounts, hoping one of them would post it on their feed and help the meme go viral.

Overall, I did not reach my objective. I ended up receiving 1 retweet, and 5 likes, which is 1/5 of my goal. I believe that since my follower base isn’t big enough, I struggled reaching the goal. I also could not figure out how to work twitter ads, which also decreased my chances of reaching my goal.
Although, I did not reach my goal, I did get very positive feedback from my followers. One even sent back a GIF of a little girl laughing with the caption, “LOL”.

Final engagement: I received 12 views on Imgur, which is very few. I would have hoped for more. I think I should’ve chose different hashtags to use, in order to reach a different follower base.
