The 10 Awesome Practices Of Online Music Promotion
|
It’s no secret that we’ve got more opportunity than ever to be heard. Between bedroom composers, online publishing and mobile file-sharing, opportunities await like the jagged teeth of a K.O.B.U.S! fan. But rather than falling into the trap of thinking that it doesn’t take much to get your name out there, remember the massive pool of competition. Follow these tips to raise your online profile as an artist.
The author of this post is also the musician behind this video. Visit Pravda23.com and download free local electronic albums. See what I mean about promotion? Stream Your MusicThere are about a million sites you can use to upload your music for the public, but start with Last.fm, MySpace, iMeem and iLike. Drop a few free tunes in there, because 30-second tidbits are about as tasty as the floor of Carfax. Let them listen. Get A HomepageSeems obvious, but spend the R150 and get a homepage rather than sending potential fans and clients to MySpace or Facebook. You either own or are owned. Go BigDon’t just rely on three or four sites. Hit every popular music site with your profile, but also get your images on Flickr, join Mxit Music, Twitter and YouTube. Even if it’s just a foot in the door, online music promotion is more about volume of content than the quality of your music. Get noticed by being prolific. |
