1This is by far the most important! Keep Your MySpace Profile Page at a 1024x768
Resolution Minimum. Or better yet use a cascading style sheet (.css) to change the
visualization of your profile depending on the users current screen resolution.
2To attract more traffic to your MySpace profile. Use a high resolution Professional
photo as your Default picture on MySpace. Use Pictures from Press Kits, Magazine
Covers, Etc... DON'T use Logos, Cell Phone camera shots, Other artists images..
As this could degrade your listener’s visual experience. Remember Image is EVERYTHING.
3Keep all the images on your MySpace profile. To a certain resolution. do not let
the images stretch your table sizes. 400px Width is the most commonly used for layout
images. Have you seen those profiles that have a scrollbar on the bottom of the
page? Not so pleasant.
4Viewers turn into listeners after they have been exposed to your profile. Listeners
convert into Fans or Friends. Fans convert into Sales. Now if you understand this
proven step by step insiders view. You should expose your profile to as many potential
Fans as possible. Sending Profile Comments is the best method of doing so. You have
the potential of posting whatever you want to all of your MySpace friends, making
sure you stand by all the spamming laws.
5If you Post HTML comments to your MySpace Friends. Make sure whatever your posting
is under 600 Pixels in width. We Recommend a 400px Width. Nobody likes getting big
annoying comments on their profile. And most users even block them. and even worse
might Flag you as a Spammer to MySpace, if your receive a certain number of flag
posts, myspace will delete your profile, and its very time consuming to TRY to get
it back, that’s if you can convince myspace you weren't spamming in the first place.
Basically just stay away from huge html comments you would attract more negative
attention then positive.
6Messages, sending messages is very vital to your myspace network. If you don't
respond to yours fans they will turn away simple as that. You are not Michael Jackson,
or Britney spears, people see indie artists as more down to earth and they feel
there contact and support are beneficiary for both. They get to brag to their friends
"Hey guess who I was talking to the other day! Iceman!! Yea he’s so cool he said
he has that ice!" and you get a FREE word of mouth advertiser that just wont stop
brining in more fans. You get the idea......Get on your messaging grind.
7Picture Comments. Artists usually turn their head when it comes to picture comments.
They've found There friends, Plays, Views, barely getting comments.. As a daily
Norm by now. But picture comments are barely rolling in. You need to understand
that most users will only post picture comments if they receive one back, or the
other way around. What you can do as an artist and further expose your profile,
simply post picture comments to your fans. It won’t kill you. in fact most of your
generated traffic might come from the picture comments. Users on MySpace look at
pictures on a daily basis. People who are friends with the user you have posted
a pic comment to are more likely to view your page and listen to your music. Multiply
that by the number of picture comments you send with the number of possible friends
the user might have. Its not rocket science.
There you go! Using these Myspace tips will further advance visual attraction to
your profile. Make sure to stack up on plays to even things out!
