/24-7PressRelease/ - April 27, 2006 -- It's one of the great Internet success stories of the modern era. With more than 73 million registered users and nearly one million music acts setting up free profiles on the site, MySpace.com has become a godsend for countless independent artists -- including Relient K, My Chemical Romance, Arctic Monkeys, and Hawthorne Heights.
MySpace is now one of the top seven most popular web sites on the planet -- right up there with Google, Yahoo and Ebay in total visitors and page views.
According to author Bob Baker:
- If you're a musical artist and you aren't promoting yourself on MySpace yet, you need to start -- fast!
- If you already have a MySpace artist profile, you need to make the best use of it so you get the maximum exposure possible.
"For the past few months I've been researching MySpace and uncovering how the most successful acts use it to reach thousands of fans, make connections, and advance their music careers," says Baker, who is the author of "Guerrilla Music Marketing Handbook" and editor of http://TheBuzzFactor.com/ and http://MusicPromotionBlog.com/ .
What Baker discovered along the way is that most artists misuse the many free features that MySpace offers and simply don't squeeze the most potential out of them.
"I searched far and wide for useful how-to information on MySpace music marketing ... and couldn't find any. Nothing," he says. "So I decided to publish something myself."
The result is a 68-page, first-ever, one-of-a-kind ebook called "MySpace Music Marketing: How to Promote and Sell Your Music on the World's Biggest Networking Web Site."
Sections include:
- How to Set Up a Killer MySpace Profile
- Using MySpace to Turbo-Charge Your Indie Music Career
- Artist Survey of 29 Successful Indie Musicians
- Bonus Section: 33 More Places to Network, Attract Fans, Post MP3s and Videos, Create Podcasts, and More
A paperback print version is scheduled for release in June 2006. More details can be found at http://MySpaceMusicMarketing.com/
