Understanding The Tips Of Successfully Running A Music Website

By Jack Houman


It's no secret that online marketing and SEO are keys to successfully running a music information website, but there are many other things you can do to drive traffic to your site. Get a step up from the competition with these tips.

Don't pay too far out in advance for your hosting, even if you've found a great company with great prices. It's always best to pay for your hosting on a month-to-month basis and retain your flexibility. If at any time you become dissatisfied with your hosting service, you need to be able to pack up and go.

A fun way to bring in friends to your music information website is to ask them to test the navigation. Send them out on a scavenger hunt for a specific page and have them tell you about their experience. You can reward them with a treat regardless of whether or not they found it. Of course, if they didn't or had trouble finding it then you will have to revise your website to make navigating easier.

Surprises tend to be inconvenient on web pages rather than fun. Your visitors need to know what to expect on every page and through every link so that they can find what they want to see. Sidebars, menus and color schemes should also stay consistent throughout your site.

Review contests can increase your search rankings. This will provide you with Google juice (because what people write in their reviews can be viewed by users using Google search if the search words are identical) as well as new visitors. A good motivational price can be offered to increase the rate of submitting of reviews.

Do not overwhelm visitors by experimenting with various styles, font, buttons and themes for colors. Remain consistent and use a common design. Visitors should not experience sensory overload. The brand being represented should be enhanced by the feel and look. Unique while sleek and simple is always in style.

It can be a huge advantage to your music information website to make it around a niche or topic related to it. Use forums related to the niche and remain attractive to interact with those that are seeking information. It is not about quantity it is about quality when you post to your website. Your reputation will grow with the quality posts.

Use Paypal if you receive payments from vendors or clients overseas. Most overseas vendors accept Paypal or even American Express. If you require assistance with more sophisticated exchanges, American Express offers FX International. It features an online portal for making payments and the ability to manage and track favorable exchange rates.
