If you are like many musicians, you are too busy to worry about decorating your MySpace profile page. Because you are responsible for promoting your music, your time will have to be divided between online marketing, radio spots, shopping for a recording contract, and playing at various gigs and events in order to generate more fan support. MySpace is another way for you to be seen online. Since you are promoting music, you do not have to do too much to make your page a popular one.

Simple organization

When fans visit your page, they want to read your profile, listen to your music, and view photos or video if you have them. Organizing your page so each category is easy to find and use is a big help for fans and record labels who don’t have much time to view pages. Create bold titles that are simple to understand. Create a profile that matches your personality, but don’t try too hard, as you may lose people before they even listen to your music.

Important information

Always include the URL of your web site if your have one and any additional information like third-party distribution sites you are using to sell CD’s and other merchandise. Also include an upcoming gigs section and list gigs in order of appearance. Make it is easy for people to make plans to see your perform.
