Where to advertise music?

Posted by SoulRed12 Jul. 28, 2009 @ 3:00 PM EDT

Hey all,

I've been uploading music here for a while now, with not much exposure. After my music gets off the "recently uploaded" list it tends to be forevermore ignored (and even while it's on the "recently uploaded" list, I usually only max out at around 3-4 votes). I see lots of other songs, however, that get a lot of reviews and votes, even when the song's rating and review scores are very low.

That leads me to believe there must be some form of advertisement going on by those who receive a lot of attention right off the bat, and I'm curious about some good places to do so. So where do you advertise? Myspace? Other forums? Etc.? Or do you just advertise in your signature and make a presence on the NG BBS? Maybe you make it a point to post a lot of music and flash reviews so people can view your page that way?

Anything anyone can suggest would be appreciated.

Much thanks my friends.

Aye the best place to advertise it everywhere!

Theres no real answer for that bro. I usually go put my new uploads on the Music Advertisement thread in the music forums. Great place to check out and everyone posts there, so always getting some exposure. Another good way to to practically email/message/PM anyone thats reviewed your songs, or anyone from any other social website, like how I did Myspace and you managed to find me lol!

Well, I'm gonna try to get another song uploaded today, so talk to you when we can man. Best of luck to ya and hope we can collab or something soon!

And all your ideas are good ones, linking a ton of social networking pages together helps tremendously, try Vampirefreaks.com that's great one to publicize your music
