There are many courses and also services online that allows you to build a website quickly and easily. Sure, but this is where we come different. We’ve included really important website lessons that matters. And our competitors hide things like this from you.
SEO – Search Engine OptimizationÂ
SEO is simply the process of optimizing your website so it appears in the top pages of search engines, for example Google when your clients or fans look up for something online. If you sell guitars and your online store is listed on the 1st search result of Google, you’ll definitely get sales from someone who search to buy a guitar online! So we’ve included serious SEO lessons that your competitors don’t.
Email Marketing/Newsletters
Email marketing & newsletters are probably the most important thing for music producers and artists. Whenever you finish an album or you have an update that you want to push to your fans, you could do it by just sending an email. However there are tips and tricks to sending successful emails that makes your fans/clients happy thus converting your updates or messages into sales and profit.
Marketing & Branding
Like we have discussed, a website is useless by its own. You have to know how to ingeniously push your website out to the crowd and urge people to visit your site, sign up to your newsletter and follow you. Marketing is the essential of any artist, musician, producer, freelancer or a business owner. Never stop marketing. Heck that’s the reason you have a Twitter account or a Facebook page. Deep within yourself you already want to market to your fans! Worry not, we have genius marketing tips bundled for you in the course.
How To Sell Music Online
Included in the course is also how you can sell music online as an artist or as a composer. What online systems do you use in your website to sell music, how to setup your payment gateways and how do you encourage fans to purchase? As a musician myself, the best feeling comes when someone buys your music (true story). Besides, we musicians and producers need to sell our work in order to put food on the table and also continuing to expand musically.
(NEW) Mastering YouTube Marketing & PromotionÂ
If you are a musician, YouTube is a must. Why?
Simply because your fans and listeners always expect to find your music and videos there. Use YouTube to market your music and yourself. And while lingering on YouTube, you’ll also learn how to monetize directly from YouTube, being a YouTube partner or simply selling your merch. Course is updated with tons of YouTube secrets and tips.
Facebook is indeed a great platform for musicians and producers alike. However it isn’t enough. A website should be your primary place where it focuses on you.
When your fan or client wants to listen to your music or read up about you, it’s your website they are going to want to visit. If you want your fans and clients to be serious about you, you have to let them know you’re serious and professional too.
If you are one of the above and do not have a website yet, then you should join the course, learn how to build one and start a successful website. It is always better to know how to build & update your own website. It’s your personal touch and message on your website that get directed to fans and clients that counts.
You can do anything you want on you website. It’s possible to make your own portfolio website to showcase your music, set up an online music store to sell music gears, online studio to take in studio jobs from around the world and more.
I can’t tell you what you want to do but I can suggest some good ideas you can do with a website. Besides, once you learn how to build a website you can proceed to build more websites! There’s nothing wrong owning more than 2 or 3 websites if you must.
