One of the newest ways to advertising and promoting about your band is MySpace. MySpace is online and it is a great way for everyone to find out about you. It is a collection of different websites. Everyone has their own website. You can create a personal website or you can create a website for your band. People get lots of gigs and lots of promotions through this website. Let's take a look. Here is the MySpace Home Page. They have all sorts of advertisements, links to different movies, ringtones, bands, cool people. When you are talking to advertise your band, you can make your own band webpage. This band, Soundheim Sector Nine, has a description of its music. It includes visuals; it has shows and different songs that you can play. It includes a list of shows. It has all sorts of information. It also has places where you can contact the band members by sending messages. Add them to your friends, add them as favorites and rank them depending on how much you like to use them. There also are videos on MySpace web pages. Another type of MySpace webpage is an individual page. This is a person who has a webpage for friends, but also promotes her music. She has singles on that she has made, a list of bio and then some other personal information. This one is less exciting as the other one because it is just a personal page. She has links to her friends.
