Have a seperate page for their music so that the viewer can click on each song and hear 30 seconds of it like on itunes. Also consider a slideshow of the bands photos, maybe a video of them saying the quote. Those are just ideas use them however you like or not at all. You pretty much thought of everything else you need. These are just creative suggestions.<br><b>References : </b><br> I suggest that you have the Cd's main song playing as soon as the website opens instead of when you click on the photos.

Sat, 31 Jan 2009 15:51:24 +0000 http://www.theadvantageband.com/band-website/what-to-include-on-your-music-promotion-website#comment-46 <b>Your suggestions on what to include within my band promotion website which will be e-mailed to radio stations?</b><br>For the last 2 years, I have been promoting for one of my friend's bands, Adelitas Way (and yes, for those of you who watch E!, this is the same band featured on Paradise city with the same lead singer who was featured on VH1's Strip Search). The band and some others advertise with fliers, gigs, myspace, etc; I am in charge of contacting radio stations and promoting to them. One new idea that I have come up with is to create a webpage that features a video with background music of their single and shows a bio and photos of the band, which will play as soon as the page is clicked on. There would be other photos of the boys, links to their myspace pages, individual bio's for each, and a link to buy their cd outside of the video on the page. I might even add a quote from one or all of the boys which would explain to the viewers what the site is for and maybe something from their own perspective about the band. As far as the webpage goes, do you have any other suggestions? what I meant by "as soon as the page is clicked on" is as soon as someone clicks on the link to get to the page; in other words, it would start playing instantly. But thanks for the suggestions! Your suggestions on what to include within my band promotion website which will be e-mailed to radio stations?
