  39. <p>In Episode 5 of <a href="https://theinternetmusician.com">The Internet Musician Podcast</a>, we talk through the first two stages in my <a href="https://theinternetmusician.com/tutorials/create-a-music-website/">8-step process to create a music website</a>&#8211;including how to choose a band name and how to buy a domain name for your band&#8217;s website. Towards the end of the episode, we also examine several band names to see how they rank in Google.</p>
  40. <p>The goal of choosing the best band name for Google is to minimize the work you&#8217;ll have to do to get your site ranked &#8220;above the fold&#8221; in the natural search results. Ideally, you want to pick a band name that you can get to the top of google in less than 1 month with minimal effort (i.e. by writing a press release and submitting it to all the free press release sites).</p>

  70. <p>Following my recent appearance on the Film and TV Music Licensing Panel at the MidAtlantic Music Conference here in Charlotte, NC, I definitely have music licensing on my mind.  It&#8217;s always been a passion of mind&#8230;one of those areas of music marketing that I&#8217;ve researched exhaustively for years.  It&#8217;s also an area I&#8217;ve had some success with&#8211;having licensed my <a title="Brian Hartzog's Funk and Roll Music" href="http://www.brianhartzog.net">funk and roll tracks</a> to shows on MTV, Noggin, Comedy Central, indie films, local short films, and commercials.</p>
  71. <p>As I&#8217;m sure you know, music licensing can be a great revenue stream for indie artists&#8230;but did you also realize that it&#8217;s a great way to get your music heard by a large audience?  In fact, it&#8217;s one of the only avenues to a mass audience that is still open to indie artists.  If you haven&#8217;t investigated music licensing, you should definitely check out this <a title="Episode 6: Music Licensing for the Indie Artist" href="http://traffic.libsyn.com/theinternetmusician/The_Internet_Musician_Podcast_Episode-06.mp3">episode (6) of the Internet Musician Podcast</a>.</p>
  72. <p>In this episode, I talk about my experience on the Film and TV licensing panel, and I answer some of the most common questions I received from songwriters about getting your music licensed in tv, film, commercials, web video, etc.  Things like:</p>
  73. <ul>
  74. <li>Does music licensing involve a patent, a copywrite or a legal contract through a lawer, etc.?</li>
  75. <li>I&#8217;ve got some good material which is now recorded, what are the next steps towards monetizing my work with music licensing?</li>
  76. <li>What are common mistakes that are made by those new to music licensing?</li>
  77. <li>When pitching mp3&#8217;s, do you recommend that they be mastered first?</li>
  78. </ul>

  109. <p>As a musician, you need a good website.  You know that.</p>
  110. <p>But you really don&#8217;t need to spend years trying to understand the technology. You also don&#8217;t want to spend tons of time working on your site without knowing if you&#8217;re doing things the right way.  It can get confusing quickly, and there&#8217;s always more to know.</p>
  111. <p>I feel ya.  I do.  So&#8211;I decided to dedicate a podcast episode to give you a crash course on what you need to know about creating a music website.</p>
  112. <p class="alert"><strong>Check out my blog post on <a href="https://theinternetmusician.com/tutorials/create-a-music-website/">how to create a music website!</a></strong></p>
  113. <p>Specifically, I provide a description of the <a href="https://theinternetmusician.com/tutorials/create-a-music-website/">8 stage process you need to complete to create a music website</a>&#8211;from choosing (and researching) a band name, through creating a squeeze page, choosing a content channel, and tracking and testing your site&#8217;s performance. Basically, this episode describes <em>the entire process</em> of creating a website, and mentions that more detailed information (and tools) are described here on my blog at <a href="https://theinternetmusician.com/tutorials/create-a-music-website/">https://theinternetmusician.com/tutorials/create-a-music-website/</a>.  Hopefully, you&#8217;ll check that out too:</p>
  114. <p class="alert"><strong>Click here for the complete process on <a href="https://theinternetmusician.com/tutorials/create-a-music-website/">how to create a music website!</a></strong></p>
  115. <p>Also, I start off the episode with a brief history of the Internet&#8211;from it&#8217;s beginnings in the defense department through Web 2.0. I describe what you&#8217;re paying for with an ISP, and how the web works.  Take a listen and let me know which of the stages of the website creation process you&#8217;re struggling most with.</p>
  116. <p>Also, make sure you visit my <a href="https://theinternetmusician.com/tutorials/create-a-music-website/">How To Create a Music Website</a> page, where I provide more detailed information.</p>

  135. <p>Also in this episode, I discuss the five things you must believe cultivate your DIY music attitude, including:<br />
  136. 1. The business has been lying to you. Major label artists are not getting rich off of record sales. Radio is fake. Don&#8217;t belive the lies they&#8217;re propogating!</p>
  137. <p>2. Giving up all your musical rights for a bad business deal is the worst thing you can do as a music business person. I walk through Steve Albini&#8217;s article where he shows how you can sell tons of records and be broke.</p>
  138. <p>3. You do not need corporate sponsorship (or permission) to secure musical freedom. Ready, fire, aim!</p>
  139. <p>4. The direct-to-fan model is the primary path to success. Work to find your own audience. Connect with them. Find out where they are, what they want&#8230;give it to them.</p>
  140. <p>5. You can do more than you think is possible. Don&#8217;t fear the massive task list. Learn to delegate to your bandmates, friends, and fans.</p>

  168. <p>In this episode, I present &#8220;Music Tools for the Indie Artist&#8221;, a topic that I recently presented to a local songwriting group.  Specifically, I present the tools and process I use to capture and preserve those moments of musical inspiration&#8211;no matter whether they strike while I&#8217;m in the car, working out, or sleeping.  I breakdown the process I use to capture both lyric and music inspired ideas.  You can&#8217;t choose when your muse delivers a moment of inspiration, and you need to be ready when it strikes.  I show you how I make sure never to lose a great idea.</p>
  169. <p>In addition, I provide an overview of my controlled environments&#8211;that is, places where I can consciously sit down to create, develop, or record a song idea (for example, a writing space, a practice space, a recording space, etc.).  I provide an overview of the tools I find helpful and a description of how they all fit together in my songwriting process.</p>
  170. <p>Note:  Make sure to check out the slides from this episode&#8211;several of them provide graphic descriptions of my process which makes it easier to understand.  You can download the slides here:</p>
