TweetSocial Music Services are the first places your listeners may be heading, listeners are what you are after because they can be converted to customers. Majority of the services require you to upload your music, which as mentioned with the image and video services will save on bandwidth usage your band has purchased. They all have free membership accounts but may be limited to number of songs etc. Others allow for ‘premium’ accounts which can possibly help with promotion on the service being used but more than likely results in more band songs available to upload and better widgets to put on your website.
Registering on all the services could be beneficial but you will be lucky if you were to find much in organic traffic. Simply getting involved in the community, large or small will be beneficial in the long run. If you are able to find the service that best suits your marketing strategies and needs you will find more organic listeners. Try a few, see what they can offer your band within the service and the embeddable options available for your site.
In no particular order, the available music services for your band.
