The internet has opened up endless possibilities, and, while that may seem daunting, it really allows you to experiment and let your creativity run wild!
The key is to learn from the promotions you run, make changes, and fine-tune them to your unique career.
Let’s take a look at some basic strategies you could be using to promote your music right now.
1. Use Social Media to Promote Your Gigs and Appearances
We all use social media. These days, if you’re not on Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram and Twitter, it’s almost like you don’t exist. However, you may not be using social media to it’s full potential to promote your music. Social media is not a straight-up marketing platform. It’s really a catalyst for conversation and word-of-mouth marketing. About 80% of your posts should be funny, conversational, and interesting, leaving about 20% for promotional material.

2. Promote Your Music on Music Websites and blogs like BlueJamz
The website shouldn’t be a static thing. It should be ever adapting and changing to reflect new events in your career.
If you want to promote your music, it isn’t just about sharing things with your fans. You also want to reach out to new audiences and convert them to fans, and music blogs are a great way to do that. Bloggers are always looking for fresh, new content, and the cool thing is, there are a ton of smaller blogs that are totally within your reach as an indie artist. Blogs also tend to have a pretty niche following. This means that if your music is run on a blog, it’s guaranteed to be seen by people who already like the genre!
