This new viral tell-a-friend script which has just come out is absolutely awesome and is priced very affordably. If you have a website, then this is a MUST HAVE piece of software. I’m not kidding, a traditional tell-a-friend script is great and will work wonders for your viral marketing campaign, but the fact is that people are lazy, and this tool takes the effort out of telling a friend and adds the leverage of telling many people with very little effort.

Let me explain how this works and you will be able to see why I am so excited about this product.

The average Tell-a-friend script works where you type in your name and email, then the names and emails of your friends. You hit send and a referral gets mailed out to the friends.

This Viral Optin Generator script that has just been released allows you to enter your username and password for one of the popular email/messengers out there such as; Yahoo, Google, Hotmail, Lycos mail, and Email.com. It then lets the user access and send a custom message which they write out to their whole email address book of friends. They can choose to send to all, select certain friends, or you can limit them to only sending a certain number, and limit how often they can use the referral option.

Not only does this facilitate easy tell-a-friend referral to masses of people, but it also allows you to prevent fraudulent use of the system through limiting the numbers of referrals and how often they can use the referral system.

I’m sure you can see how powerful this is, and what’s more, it’s the same technique that many of the top social networking sites have used to grow so big so quickly. Sites like MySpace, ICQ, Facebook, StumbleUpon, and many others. The fact is that it works because it’s made so simple to use, and if your site is worth telling about, then people will tell.
