Get Your Website Together

In: Music Business| Reviews

I recently came across a great resource for artists and bands who want to get their website together. My website is built on Wordpress, one of the most popular CMS out there. The big advantage to WP is the amazing level of customization you can have. Most people start with some basic theme that they like and then they tweak it from there. One of the best themes aimed at musicians is at BandWebsiteTheme.com.

I have spent the last few days playing with this theme and I found it to be not only easy to modify, but a great way to get a professional web presence going without breaking the bank. There are a few features that really stand out to me.

The first one is the integration with all the major social networks. All you need to do is enter the URL of your profile and click a button and it automatically places the proper links on your website. Another great feature is the ability to host a solid e-commerce area right on your website. If you have t-shirts, posters or pretty much anything else to sell, this website comes ready for that.

If I was just starting out and I wanted to get a website up and running in a hurry, this would be the first place I would go to get started.
