1. Want to make sure you use your airplay credits in the most effective way?
# 1 Promote Your Hits
You may have an entire album (or more) uploaded to Jango. That's great for users that have
already come to enjoy your music. However, make sure you allocate more play credits to your
hits, the songs you're most satisfied with and that listeners enjoy the most. If you are unsure
which songs are more popular - compare the results in the playstats.
# 2 Use A Good Picture
The reason it is a cliche is because it's true - you never get a second chance to make a first
impression. An interesting, professional looking picture will catch listeners attention. It also
signals that you're serious about your music.
# 3 Use the Facebook Integration
A correct Facebook URL (more here) enables you to connect your promo module with your
Facebook page. As you know - people spend a lot of time on social media in general (and
facebook in particular). By growing your fan base on both Jango and Facebook you create
additional ways to communicate with your fans.
# 4 Update the Custom Message
The custom message is the second thing listeners spot after the picture. Here's your chance to
present yourself with 80 characters or less, be creative but stick to the point. Tell listeners about
an upcoming gig, boast with a high profile quote or let them know you're giving away a free mp3
download. You should grow their interest by giving them further incentive to explore your music,
be it on Jango, Facebook, Twitter or your own webpage.
# 5: Keep your song title clean and correctly spelled
Make sure there are no typos in your song title and avoid CAPS lock, the song title is part of
your first impression and a professional looking title will further boast your image.
