In this day and age the importance of having a professional looking, well maintained and regularly updated presence on a multitude of key social networking sites cannot be overstated. Whilst most unsigned bands will have at the very least a basic presence on common sites such as Myspace and Facebook, this is only scratching the surface of the online tools you could and should be using to grow your fan base and promote your music. There are always new websites, trends and techniques cropping up, which, if you stay on top of them, will have a massive advantage of being heard over others. At The Hook Up our expert knowledge can help you to maximise the effectiveness of these tools and provide you with a structured online marketing strategy to ensure you create as much online ‘heat’ as possible in the build up to your next release.
And if you are finding that your website is lacking and it needs an overhaul, a fresh new look, or even if this will be your first website, we have experience in creating quality music websites which are clear, fast-loading and easily editable by you so that you can update yourself including essential sections such as news, media and merchandise pages.
As part of our press mail out service we can also target specific blogs and webzines to promote your current or future release making sure you’re being heard by the right people in an area of the media that has become increasingly influential in the past five years.
In keeping with our ‘do it yourself’ ethos we also actively encourage unsigned artists to sell their own music digitally online. At The Hook Up we can recommend a variety of effective online distribution solutions and offer guidance on which digital aggregators you should be using, enabling you to maximise your profits through mp3 sales alongside traditional record sales.
