- To become famous, you’re going to have to give people a reason to care about you or what you’re doing. Is there something unique about you, your work or your interests? Do you have a special insight into something that a lot of people are interested? Basically, you need to figure out what you have to offer the world.
- Next, you need a gimmick. Several people have gotten famous online solely off a gimmick, but it’s rarely been a lasting fame. You could be the guy that straps a webcam on his head just because that’s his gimmick (what’s his name?), or you could use that gimmick to get more people interested in what you have to offer, creating a much wider audience.
- Once you’ve got your mission and your gimmick, it’s time to get going. Dedicate as much time as you can to your pursuit of fame. Blog, post on other blogs, upload YouTube videos and go viral with as much content about you as possible. You need to literally flood the Internet to get even a trickle of fame.
- Network with other blogs and build a community around yourself wherever you can. Host chats, setup a forum about yourself, let everyone know what’s up with you using Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, etc.
- Digg yourself and use whatever other free promotion tools you can. Consider advertising with Google Adsense or another service if you can afford it.
- Consider branching out into other media, pitch stories about your celebrity to traditional print, broadcast and other outlets. Give lectures, readings, throw parties or host other events to get your name out there.
- Hire an agent and take over the world. So long, Oprah!
