Spot on, Nancy. I’d add that it’s mportant to co-ordinate on-line and off-line strategies. Make sure your URL is promotede offline; capture fans’ contacts at gigs; be consistent in uses of imagery and message; and so on.

Great thinking, great post!

Best Practices for online promotion – Distribute your presence + Capture. The idea of the mailing list seems to have slipped away in importance to bands – especially in the live scene. Like having the information consistent across all your online bits and bobs you constantly need to be encouraging people to enter their details so you can capture their marketing details and send info to them direct when you have something really important to say. You also need to reward you fans for them giving you this access. Create an exclusive fans area that only people who sign up to your mailing list get. Make sure they get all the info first before you post in across other sites. Make them feel special exclusive Fans..

Bands really need to look hard beyond myspace, there are more users spread around other sites now.

Indeed there was a web tracking company that recently showed for actual music fans imeem.com was now the biggest site with more than twice the number of users using it to discover music compared with myspace. Bands who are still focussed on myspace are selling themselves short.
