jimcroisdale Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hiya all, I wrote a blog on my band's website about promoting a covers band. You can find it [url="http://www.theheatfunctionband.co.uk/promoting-covers-band-heats-guide/"][b]HERE[/b][/url] Hope some of you may find it useful, and any comments, questions or suggestions will be welcomed! :-) Cheers, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitz Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Nice work. All good advice. We've tried most of those things with various degrees of success - all worth trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRedX Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Everything you've written so far is equally applicable to bands playing their own songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] But seriously, whenever I tweet a blog or a link, its statistics go through the roof! I see this when I tweet my own blogs. Also, you'll notice a quick, substantial increase in the number of "views" on those BC threads I tweet about. So this social media lark does help to spread the word.
