Is MySpace a useful promotion platform?

peterW · 10-03-2006, 11:19 AM

I guess the question is in the title. Do people use MySpace to promote websites, and if so how have they found it. MySpace seems to be mostly young adults, and I some musicians have told me they have pages on it to promote music. Have people here considered it a useful tool at all?

I dont even think about that.

Is it possible to use myspace for promoting my websites?

There are several thousands of websites that do it. I dont think it would hurt anything do to there being several millions of profiles there.
If you are loaded with money you can spend 30,000 dollars a month on a banner ad

Here is mine. http://www.myspace.com/buzzjack
We are a music site so it fits to the member base.
On average I'd say it's not useful, it's just a page like any other really.

As a webmaster, MySpace is my best friend. Serious traffic generator!

MrAlan - how do you promote your site?
I tried it with PokerDIY - http://www.myspace.com/pokerDIY

But I don't get many hits at all? I am trying to build my friend netwrok but there are thousands of people...

Actually - thats a question - is there an easy way to find all the people who like poker and invite them to be your friend (sounds corny

at once? Otherwise it is painfully slow!

The sites those are having their target audience as Youth can always promote their site on MySpace. Who knows who will click on the link and become your valued client?

myspace is a definite traffic generator if you are doing it correctly...Like don't spam there website and your link on every forum...I would suggest like if a member is asking for something like "Need a drummer for a gig this weekend?" well then you can reply like "Dude, I went to this website and they have bunch of people who are looking in your area 'link'."

Thats how I do it!!! and boy those teenagers and youngsters spread your word all over their network.
