Can I pay a company to promote my YouTube videos to make it go viral?

I'm looking to start coming out with videos every week and I have lots of competition. I want my videos to be on Facebook, Twitter pretty much at the top of the screen so that people will notice it and check me out. I wanna do this for the first couple months to get my channel going. Do you know of any companies that specialize in this?

I heard Rebecca Blacks family paid like 10 grand to have those people film her and promote her videos. Not the greatest however it has MILLIONS of views. I don't mind getting a couple thousand.

Why do you even want to get famous? Getting famous isn't important. As long as you have God.

In fact, "Friday" cost Rebecca Black's mom $4000. But it wasn't a promotional deal: all they promised her was a song and a video shoot. It was a couple months before "Friday" went viral, and that was only because The Daily What and Tosh.0 happened to pick up on it.

There are company's you can pay for hits but they are bogus and YouTube won't recognize them. The reason a video goes viral is because people liked it and shared it not because a company put it out there for them . If your channel is going to succeed then you have to be different from your competition. And build your fan base yourself!
