In this article I want to show you how to promote music on the internet using the biggest website online.
You might be thinking Google, but does one be surprised to hear that Facebook now obtains more monthly views in comparison to the mighty Google! Plus the users stay on the site ten times longer because they are all very busy spying on on their ex boyfriends and girlfriends; -) With this knowledge in mind we need to develop an effective Internet marketing plan to tap into that traffic and obtain new fans to our website. The issue with marketing anything on Facebook is that folks see it as a safe haven from the rest of the marketing hype online, and if you go in there with all guns blazing you certainly will totally ruin your image and folks with think you pull. Always keep in mind that the most effective way to promote your music online is to get people to 'LIKE' something you create there. But they will still only do that if your stuff is actually really good. MYSPACE MARKETING AND ADVERTISING SPAM So most of you know how the following works... and have probably done a little yourself. You go into myspace learning how to promote music using the web and you see these bands friending you since you also like Michael Jackson...
... so you check it out for yourself.
You get onto another bands fan list and start adding 400 new friends per day...
... and then wonder so why none of then want to hear your music?
Help that none of them asked to check on from you, and they don't give a sh@* about what ones doing! Now you could try that same tactic with Facebook. You find your band and then attempt to friend all the people on the fan page. Two thing will happen: 1. Carry out will except you for the reason that have never heard associated with you.
2. Facebook will boot people out faster than you may say "I'm a spammer". So below are a few steps to get your music marketing going on Facebook: * Set up the iLike app on your fan page. Over 150 million users.
* Employ Reverb Nation: This will allow you to set up a widget on the fan page that are able to capture your fan details and in addition offer them your music for sell.
* Invite all your friends and relations to your fan page and keep these things 'like' it. This will start a small viral drip.
* Ask your fans to add your music player on their profile.

But I have a rule about marketing that goes like this.... You is going where the many people are i. e. Facebook, and you ought to use simple marketing tactics that have been proven to work. Generate a habit and work into it everyday.
