Results Analysis:
I think my topic for the viral campaign was very relevant. As I was able to get one thousand plus impressions via the Twitter ad. Also a lot of people around campus and from back home have told me they have seen or read my article. However I don’t know if the Buzzfeed community or editors really connected with the piece as it didn’t go viral via there site. I’m not sure how they determine what goes viral or not, and I also realized that older people or the older generation didn’t really relate with the term “Cuffing Season”. I believe my campaign was successful and might pick up steam later if promoted by Buzzfeed.
