5 Key Reasons Rappers,Rockers and Authors Need A Music Website
If you rap, Then you should also have a music website.
Most hip-hop artists rely heavily on social media but the problem with your social networking
accounts is that it could be deleted at any time and for no real reason. Just imagine if your social media account gets deactivated, what would happen to all you followers?
The answer to the question is that all the fans or followers would be like they never even existed in the first place and there is nothing you can do about it. Luckily, if your social networking accounts are not deleted yet, then the risk remains the same because your fans, followers, likes etc eventually may fade away. Remember MySpace!
To avoid the troubles of cancelled accounts, you must have your own website and that should be your main platform. Your website would be the only platform which you could completely control. Don’t worry about the social media accounts activities because all the social media accounts can be easily connected with your website.
1. Professional Look - Using your own website shows that you take your career seriously and it creates an impression that you are more reliable, talented and more interested in those who visit your site.
2. Your Platform - Let’s suppose you want to check some information about an artist you like, what would be the first step to take? Definitely! To check their website and read all the information about them because it is the best way to get a quick overview of what the group is up to and where they are going to be to keep yourself up to date about the artist. You can also subscribe to their mailing list and the artist can communicate directly.
3. Full Experience - The site is the only place where people can get the full experience you and your work and as you know that an independent website is actually the only place where a group or artist can effectively show their "brand".
4. Total Control - You never need to worry about whether people really see your updates because every post would be on your website forever (until you delete it manually) and the good news is that you don’t have to pay for promoting your posts or messages to your followers.
5. Your Own Favorite Style - You don’t have to be a victim of a temporarily trending social media crazy. Many musicians have spent time on MySpace (when it fell out of favor) just to lose that connection with their fans. In the last few years, something similar happened with Facebook between the younger music fans and followers.
The styles of a website can be changed but it can’t be out of style that’s why making your website the top priority will be a reliable and wise decision for your career and reputation.
