Unfortunately, it's not always easy to tell:

What is it about them that seems to be key to them doing so well?
What can you learn from them?
How can you put some of these principles into action in your own writing.

A lot of posts go hot because they are first, or first with that concept. Easy enough- go be first with something, right?

Some people just have a lot of friends... also hard to emulate without a lot of time/effort.

If you're a person who is generally inspired to come up with something original by reading others' takes on a topic, this is great advice. I'm afraid a lot of people will read it and just start reviewing or rehashing posts by other people in their area.

I think you can learn from what's currently working... but you also need to be innovative if you are ever going to break through.

Your right! There are a lot of different factors that make your posts/articles go Viral. Like sometimes articles you don't expect to go viral turn out to be your most viral(well known) article.

But checking what's hot in the social sites is absolutely a great tip! Thanks!
