Tired of your measly 10, 20, 50 MySpace plays per day. You may need to start to  expose and promote your page more. Guerilla tactics like sending out 400 friend requests may be good, but may also be detrimental. It's a fact that a lot of MySpace users HATE getting band requests and MySpace cripples accounts of those who send out too many requests.

Wouldn't it be better if you were receiving all of the friend requests instead? We can help! We have a special networking capability that can get you thousands of plays and new friend requests (people requesting you) in a matter of a week! We expose your music to the net and get you those beautiful numbers of 1,000+ MySpace plays per day, so you can increase Myspace plays, friends, and visits attract labels, gig locations, local press, scouts, agents, and other important industry people with these achievements now!

Cross Promotion

This one’s not rocket science, so I’ll try and keep it brief. Everything you do — online and off — should link back to your website.

If you make posters or flyers, they should include the name of your website. If you write emails, your web address should be in the signature. If you talk about what you do, you should mention the website. If you stand up on a stage, you should direct people to your website. If you have sleeve notes for your CD, they should include the URL. Stick it on your t-shirts.

These are some simple and obvious things that reinforce your website as the centre for your activity and engagement with the outside world. They’re what I call passive cross-promotional strategies. But there are some fairly active ones you could employ too.

I’m going by some examples I’ve encountered in the past, and they apply specifically to live performance, but these should act as springboards into new ideas for you as well:

These things take a bit of thought, preparation and effort. They also apply specifically, as I mentioned, to cross-promoting live performance with the website. Naturally, this is a two-way street. The website should promote the live event, obviously.

What does a Compilation Do?

We  have rounded up all of our resources for the definitive opportunity and all-encompassing artist development experience for independent artists – Breaking new fanbases.
Imagine every song contest, music licensing, press, booking, touring and festival showcasing opportunity rolled into one. Now, imagine playing a prime-time slot at a major music concert, licensing your songs, enjoying extensive radio play, working media outlets and receiving months of booking and tour support.
availabilty to reach new fans and targeted audiences outside of your normal region.
It's the ultimate in artist and band promotion and possibly the big break you've been waiting for.
Today the practice of selling custom music compilations has blossomed into its own profitable niche within the music business and retailing.

Custom music compilations have endured as retail promotional tool because music is an effective way to communicate with the customer, said Michael Mjehovich, vp of sales for BMG Special Products. "Retailers get a chance to expand their brand and give customers a reason to remember the experience of shopping in their stores," he said.And custom compilation albums are finding footholds throughout the retail segment. Currently retailers ranging from Starbucks to Old Navy have custom compilation CDs to match their retail demographics.
