How to advertise your band or their production
Very often the dream of many young musicians and producers is to depopulate the world of music to mega concerts, having thousands of fans, dozens of evenings, be in the top 10 of MTV ... Many say "you have the right connections." Undoubtedly true, but if you can not possess it groped to seek the path of success through the best means of communication at our disposal: the Internet.

DIFFICULTIES 1
1.Il first step could be defined as "material". In fact, if you have a group that has already begun to produce some pieces, now is the time to record a promo, possibly in a recording studio (if you do a good selection, the costs are not prohibitive). Also taking some photos while you play: in fact create a photo book (also made by you, without disturbing the photographer) will give an increased sense of professionalism. If you're among friends, a chart, maybe it's also a good idea to invent the logo of the group. If you also have the chance to do some evening with friends, recorded video to be published on youtube: it's other irons in the fire for your advertising.
2.When you hold your photos, a promo piece at least one and possibly some videos, it's time to sit down at a desk and turn on a PC. The most immediate step is to open up a fan page on facebook: Invite all your friends, and tell your friends to invite your to join: to have a good number of fans on social networking site more popular of the network certainly will let you know what less in your area, with the possibility that some local calls you for an evening. Of course all public photos and maybe occasionally post some videos uploaded to youtube. Enter also contact (eg email, phone number) to be contacted by people interested in you to play in his club or in the evening.
3.After profile on facebook, it's up to myspace. Although the advent of "faccialibro" its use has been diminishing, have a myspace profile is a necessary but not sufficient if you want to advertise. Then go on myspace and create your music profile, so you can put your photos here, but also enter your dates provided by the same player in your productions. I think it is also important to write a biography of the group, because it can be a good way to make themselves known to the public. Try to take the friendship to as many people as possible in order to exponentially increase visits to your page.
4. And now it's SoundCloud, the best place to upload music. Once registered you can post your songs and other users can comment and appreciation. To get so many plays, and potentially many comments, you lose some 'time to begin to "follow" other artists, which then usually reciprocate by following you. Just go to another profile and click on "start following" to appear in its list of followers. It is also a good idea to join groups that cultivate interests similar to ours (always on SoundCloud): this will increase even more visits to your profile.
5.After advertise their group and their "works" to the whole world, my advice is (if you've reached a good level, and you think your song is "sold") by submitting a demo to the labels conceivable, and especially those online, usually more inclined to produce artists. To find them just do some simple research on google.Forse do well for all these procedures can cost a lot 'of time, but maybe one day you'll be proud you did.
