Find out what’s involved! I mean - have you got the support you need to survive in online markeitng and online business development??
We’ve got lots of ideas for promoting entertainers, entertainment sites and entertainment based services and business providers - it’s what we’ve done, specializing in this for over 3 years now.
I’ve got to keep writing this blog - did I mention that? Was the post where I talked all about how great this blog is for me now - did that end up getting lost?
Oh well let’s go over those takeaways so we can move on
- posting a blog is one of the most effective things you can do with half an hour to promote your music. Fresh content on your site added to a growing accumulation of content available on your site helps to increase yourrankings over time
- this compounds over the course of years - a blog is only really going to come into it’s own after you’ve been posting in terms of years. The big point I’ve been pushing is that now after 2 years, this blog here which I don’t really maintain all that meticulously has become really effective in promoting the online music marketng services that we offer at kurb promotions.
That’s why I try to push blog promotion with a lot of my clients but it never really goes anywhere because it takes a year to actually get it rolling and that’s going to take effort on somebody else’s part before I get an ounce of credit so . . . a hard barrow to push really.
That’s why I’m going on about it. If music marketing was my only business, then I would be making a living out of this blog - not a huge one - but at least a full time minimum wage. In music marketing work that I get, the only source of which is clients coming through this blog because it’s starting to get reasonable google goodness. I get 70+ hits p/month just for the term “music marketing” and those are the peple I want because one of them will always email me and jump on a music marketing services package.
So what now?
Well what I’m saying is that a realistic and committed musician, who’s committed to a music career should be blogging regularly and building backlinks with blog comments and link exchanges.
Link exchanges can be really very effective, feel free to email me for a link exchange and I will provide you some options for what we can exchange in order to get the links and additional google juice we need.
But when you get to the point of getting 200 visitors a day just through a combination of fresh regular blog posts, and you’re really into the swing of dropping posts every few days, then you’re going to be looking for other ways forward.
For a start, ramp it up, max it out - that’s why I’m still posting here today! When I’m getting 10,000 visitors a month I’ll be doing heaps of business and charging a lot more, so I’m going to keep doing all those smart things:
- posting regularly
- using keywords
- opening each post with persuasie and compelling propositions which instruct visitors clearly on what we provide and how they can go about receiving it
- link exchanges with relevant keywords
- lots of article markeitng with a nice spread of different relevant key phrases.
Don’t forget we can offer you ALL of this for US$200 p/month, and if you stuck with it for 2 years I’d expect you’d be making $US5-600 p/week indirectly from sales funneled through your blog too - Email: kurbpromo@gmail.com for full online music marketing services.
Except unlike me, the fans you connect with online are going to keep giving you money as long as they’re engaged and it’s going to keep spreading and you’re going to keep expanding because unlike me, you don’t have a limit on the amount of what you provide that you can distribute.
I can only spend so many hours managing music markeitng campaigns until I have to hire more people, then I have to manage them.
But 10 people could buy your new single [or get the single free as a tie in with a product they actually do want out of reasons other than politeness and pity for you], -or 10,000 could accept your proposition - still the same amount of work on your part. Digital business makes creation of revenue from brand equity easy.
So building long term using strategies like blogigng doesn’t appeal to a lot of musicians and it doesn’t often feel very rock’n roll, but what if long term is the only strategy?
What if blogging is effective in so many different tangible ways that you can’t ignore it?
Google’s not going to hate you all of a sudden because another band around town spread rumours. The strength of this blog I’ve built here makes it very hard to isolate me commercially, I’ve built my own platform and am able to maintain my independence in a way that was just not possible in years past.
In the fickle music business and music scene, these things count, especially if you’re on a long road, there’s going to be ups and downs, your blog and your site will serve you well long after those publicity spends have dried up.
But it wont work for years - you gotta ask yourself just how committed to this you are.
