It’s a shortcut to participate in viral challenges and can dramatically boost your reach and engagement by riding the momentum of a meme.

šŸŽ¤ Utilize Justin Bieber?

Songs from Justin Bieber’s latest album ā€œSWAGā€ are trending as soundtracks for creative videos. One viral format uses Bieber’s ā€œStand on Businessā€ audio to show people doing a confident power-walk or ā€œsignature stompā€ – often joking about how they’d walk when they mean serious business.

Trending sounds like these are opportunities – consider how a hot audio clip might fit a fun idea in your niche.

😮 Retention over EVERYTHING

To maximize impact on these trends (or any video), focus on retention. Social algorithms reward videos that people watch all the way through Start with a hook in the first 1–3 seconds – for example a teaser, bold question or striking visual Keep your video snappy and tight; shorter videos (7–15 seconds) with no dull moments tend to go viral more easily.

Use fast cuts, captions or on-screen text, and a dynamic pace to hold viewer interest (looping the video cleverly can even encourage replays). In a nutshell, hook early, cut the fluff, and keep the energy high – this will signal to the algorithm that your content is worth boosting to more people.
