Hit

The internet slang term “hit” refers to when something becomes popular or gains a lot of attention in a short period of time. It is often used to describe viral content, an influential person or trending topics.

Examples:

1. Did you see that video of the baby trying to eat a lemon? It’s going to be a hit on social media!

2. The new song by that artist is already a hit. It has been played on the radio non-stop.
