About Unsigned Band PromotionUnsigned Band Promotion are Website Promoters For Unsigned Bands. Our promotion techniques focus solely on the band's website, and we are continually looking for alternative and new ways to get bands' websites noticed by fans, search engines and the music industry.
I say We, it's the royal We, I mean I! Hello, my name is Ian I'm the founder of Unsigned Band Promotion, I've been working on online promotion techniques since 1994. In August 2004 I became interested in "specialising" in website promotion for unsigned bands whilst creating the Menendez website (a free website for a friend).
During my research for the Menendez website I discovered a common problem: about 77% of bands have a website, but only about 30% of bands are in Google's top ten results for their band's name! Being found by your band's name is a fundamental necessity. Actually, most fans will find your website through a recommendation (as in a link or from a flyer), only someone who already knows your name will search for it. But if they do know your band's name, they must find you when searching. The simple answer is: get the structure of the website correct. build a network of reciprocal links from very like minded websites. promote the band's website address with conventional advertising, i.e., flyers, posters, reviews, etc.
My idea is: to help bands by showing them how to improve their websites with regard to website promotion. Oh, and to do it free!
My Keywords are: dedication, service, simplicity, purity and harmony.

On a personal note, I am your contact and the main worker within Unsigned Band Promotion, I am a firm believer in W3C standards compliance, my design philosophy is: keep it simple, my life philosophy is: Buddhism. Here is a Buddhist thought: "As a net is made up by a series of knots, so everything in this world is connected by a series of knots. If anyone thinks that the mesh of a net is an independent, isolated thing, they are mistaken. It is called a net because it is made up of a series of connected meshes, and each mesh has its place and responsibilities in relation to other meshes".
