Its not the actress turned singer but an actual band called scarlett johansson. I saw them on a indie music video flow and they were really good. does anyone know their website?

i dont think they have a website

I was reading about the band The Network (a side project of Green Day) on wikipedia and clicked the link to visit the bands website. however when ever I click the link or type the website in it says I dont have permission to access the server. I haave tried on several occasions since to access the website. But the same message shows up, why is this?
ahh i see, is there any way you can suggest i become a member without joining the band itself (which of course would be impossible lol)?

According to my thinking this is because you were not the official member of that site or the band…

I have a band that’s just starting out and all I want is for people to be able to download our music for free. I don’t want to pay money, I don’t want them to pay money, I just want them to have our music.

Well, I’m pretty sure they can’t DOWNLOAD it off there, but MySpace is an awesome place for up-and-coming bands.

=D

I’ll add you!!

xx

I have a band i need to make a logo like a banner not a banner like you put up at a event like for your myspace????? i need a good website to make a profile layout for my band???

You can download the program called Inkscape from inkscape.org. It takes a little time to learn but it’s free and you can make some nice custom graphics with it.

What is Social Media Marketing?

Social Marketing is made up of many different aspects. The important thing to remember is that anyone wanting to earn money online should be prepared to invest the time and effort required to build a genuine business. Using social media should be just one part of your overall traffic-building strategy, not the entire nor the only strategy you incorporate.

I share 4 key components of social marketing below. Learning the basic principles of social marketing and how it works will go a long way in helping you with not only your marketing efforts, but your notoriety and reader retention.

Blogging is Crucial in Social Marketing

Your blog is naturally a social marketing tool. By using good posting strategies, linkbait, clip marks, utility posts, commenting, growing your audience, setting up social widgets, content exchanges or blog carnivals, and social media optimization you will have set a powerful base for your website. The building blocks of social marketing success are one of the critical components to making your online business not only visited more, but critical to your monetary success.

Using Social Sites Properly

Learning the common social site features will enable you to grasp how to use these communities to their highest potential. Creating a powerful profile is very important. Making friends on social sites is just one power networking strategy, along with having others submit respond to, and vote on your content. You also want to understand the rules for each social site so that you don’t get your account banned. Tagging is another critical aspect to your social marketing, and being able to measure your marketing results.

It’s a Conversation, Not a Sales Pitch

Starting conversations is a power strategy. Knowing the Golden Rules of Social Networking will enable you to get maximum views for your social networking, forum activity, and on how to find social networks in your niche. Learning Social Power Linking Strategies will enable you to drive organic traffic to your site, and will provide you with continuous streams of repeat visitors. People who are searching for information in your niche will find you because of the social marketing strategies. Social marketing does many things, it not only puts you in front of those who are in those specific social sites, but because you are creating links, regular followers will come simply because the search engines will notice all your efforts and all the organic traffic that you are creating. This in turn will help you with your search engine rankings.

A System Is Critical To Being Efficient

In order to incorporate these strategies you need a system, a guide, on how to do this effectively and a place where you can share your findings and questions with others. There are several communities where bloggers band together and where social marketing tactics of all kinds are shared and discussed in great detail.

Great free communities to get involved are MyBlogLog.com, BlogCatalog.com, and SocialAuthority.Ning.com. People interested in social marketing and better blogging tactics are working out new social marketing tactics and helping each other progress in busy communities such as these.

I want to buy some band tees with my Christmas money, but i need to find out where to buy them. I want to buy merch for bands like Death, Deicide, Mayhem, Emperor, Morbid Angel, Gorgoroth, etc. Basically Death Metal and Black Metal.

Rockabilia, best site ever.Prices are the same as stores but the have a huge selection

“Buyer Beware” We all have heard this a thousand times, yet many consumers continue to purchase products with false or misleading information. One case in point is the HDTV antenna. Lets separate the facts from the fiction.
FICTION Special TV antennas are necessary to receive the new HDTV/Digital signal.

FACT HDTV/Digital signal is and will broadcast on many of the same channel frequencies that traditional analog television has been broadcasting on for years.
FICTION All HDTV signals will be broadcast on the UHF frequency band.
FACT Nearly every television broadcasting market in the U.S. will have at least one or more VHF and UHF HDTV channels.
FICTION I will need to replace my current TV antenna to receive HDTV.
FACT If your current TV antenna can receive both VHF and UHF TV signals, and is in proper working order, it is unlikely a change will be necessary.
Because of widespread misunderstanding many people will purchase two TV antennas. The first TV antenna will be purchased as an HDTV antenna. This TV antenna will be a UHF TV antenna. The well meaning dealer who sold the antenna thought all HDTV signals would be broadcast on the UHF band.
I believe for the most part this is an honest mistake. All broadcasters are required to broadcast their traditional analog signal until February 2009. At the same time broadcasters are broadcasting their new digital signal. Because of the limited channel space allotted for television broadcasting, most HDTV/Digital channels are temporarily assigned to UHF channels, and will permanently be assigned in February 2009. At this time many of the digital channels currently broadcasting on the UHF will return to the VHF frequency.
The fact of the matter is, there is no difference between a traditional TV antenna and a HDTV antenna. Although some people would like you to think there is, this simply isn’t true.
When choosing your TV antenna, use the same guide lines used for selecting a traditional antenna. Consider the antennas quality, size, range, and how much money you are willing to spend and in most cases be sure the TV antenna is VHF/UHF capable. Remember if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.

Myspace marketing is the new thing if you haven’t noticed lately. It is so simple to go and request lots of friends and just start sending mass messages, bulletins, and comments. It is really a great way to start viral marketing.

It is really not that hard at all – and it works. The only problem is adding the friends and sending messages, comments, and bulletins takes a damn long time if you do it by hand.

I am a programmer myself and I was planning on making my own tool for it because I had used 2 other Myspace friend adder programs and they were garbage.

However, being in a mastermind group I found out about a launch of a new product called Badder Adder by Michelle MacPhearson.

So, I figured I’d go try it out since there was a free demo. That’s where I started to get upset. I started the Badder Adder demo and the program never came up on the screen.

So I started reading around on some forums about it and I found out that I had to start closing off some of my other programs to make it work.

It turned out the culprit was AOL Instant Messenger! Right when I closed AIM the program loaded up fine. (As of October 26, 2006 this bug has been fixed and I can use AIM at the same time…)

Right out of the box Badder Adder worked like a charm. Following Michelle’s easy instructional videos I started adding around 300 friends to each of 10 Myspace accounts that I had created. By the morning I had a new total of 1400 friends and only 12 hours had gone by (people might not have logged in yet…)

That is 1200 new people that I selected from niche markets that I can sell items to, promote a band to, promote a website, anything. Quick tip: Use an attractive female on your Myspace profiles, the friend requests accept rate goes up substantially.

Anyway, being a programmer I normally don’t recommend anyone else’s programs because I would just make them myself – and better…however Michelle’s Badder Adder is definitely one exception.

I would recommend that you send less than 300 friend requests per account per day on Myspace. Myspace frowns upon the use of bots to add more friends but people still do it however. If you stay under the 300 limit your account should stay in good standing.

Hello. At first, I’m new here, great forum. Good topics you have here and music topics.

I’m making website about singers and bands, it is community site or social network site for singers and bands.

Can you help me and tell me what would you like this site to have.
I thought of: Little forum, community profile, adding pics and videos.

YOu are singers or you have your own band you know the best what do you need to promote your self, so please tell me what do you need on site?

As a web-site designer and a musicker I hope I’m being helpfull.
A web-site needs to be clean, without a lot of blurry images and moving advertisements, it needs to be cool to,

AND… you have to insure song protection, no ones going to want their music to be stolen or anything like that.

If you can do that; then you’ve got it made.
