The super website MySpace has become the best way to
promote your music to millions of people across the
Internet. Every up and coming singer, rapper, producer or
record label needs to have a MySpace music page for their
material. So you are moving slowly if you do not have a
myspace page by now, and there for a decade behind the
competition. I suggest that you go ahead and sign up now
to start promoting your music. But first I must let you
know what will work for your music and what will not work
in the aspect of being effective in your myspace marketing
so that you do not waste your time and money, because you
can spend a lots of time there with out serving your
initial purpose.
So the first thing you need to do is look for some
effective ways that you can stand out from the pack. And
the truth is that millions of other recording artist that
already have a MySpace page so it is essentially important
to do something very different in your approach to
promotion. Having said that, the coding boys at MySpace
have not made it particularly easy to do that, (it's a free
service after all) and hence the slew of external companies
offering free MySpace layouts. To find a layout you like,
simply do a Google search for "Myspace layouts" and you
will find a great deal of layouts to choose from. One site
in particular that I like is www.spacedoutcodes.com When
you find a layout you like, you will get some code to
insert into the about me section of your profile field.
On the down side there are way too many artists spending
too much time promoting their MySpace pages when their own
artist domains are being ignored. You should expect, that
the almighty MySpace might be out of business in a couple
years. Most of these mega sites come and gone, especially
when there are billions of dollars involved. On the other
hand, the company known as Google Inc. may thrive, who
knows?
But a good thing to do is to make your MySpace page
personal. Talk to your fans like you know them and post
comments on their pages too. If you show love to them, then
they will show love to you. Also take the time to add some
interesting personal info about your background, yourself,
or the entire band if appropriate. Try to include some
great photos, both professional and regular home photos,
and of course allow people to download some mp3s of your
music.
Now the next thing to do is to grab some new fans from
MySpace. What I suggest you accept all those who request to
be your friend, and add every body. And I would even go
seeking friend adds from other bands. The reason is that
other bands love to listen to the competition, and you may
even want to discuss joint ventures with them, but whats
better than going after the bands is to go after those
other bands fans instead, cause you already know that they
like music. To do this, find bands that are on the same
musical genre with you.
As it can be some what overwhelming to see some stars with
just about a million friends and over 10,000 song plays per
day, but wouldn't it be nice to get to that place? I can't
stress this point enough which is the need to get your new
potential fans to come visit your own website and not your
myspace page. As the more places that you are at in the
Internet will draw more people to look for your myspace
page.
