What does Neworleansmusicians.net do?
We enable independent musicians from New Orleans and surrounding areas to book their own shows, contact magazines and radio stations, sell music and merchandise, get CD/ show reviews all for free.
How are they different?
We promote within a niche market in that we only accept musicians from Louisiana, but include music industry professionals worldwide. We offer all of our services for free. We write original editorials and cover musicians before they break into mainstream. Any designers, photographers, videographers or writers used in conjunction with our content receive free promotions and advertising. We assist musicians with Creative Commons registration furthering their appeal and utility to commercial and non commercial film production.
Why could Neworleansmusicians.net be BIG?
At it’s height, before the renovations and expansion, and with NO formal advertising, Neworleansmusicians.net (previously Neworleansbands.net) enjoyed upwards of 1.5 million hits a month, equating to roughly 200,000 unique visitors. New Orleans and its surrounding areas are home to one of, if not THE greatest concentration of talented independent musicians in the nation. Bringing fans, musicians, and music industry professionals together onto a state of the art networking interface, increasing their accessibility through profile directories with messaging systems, and highlighting businesses and musicians with editorial and video coverage, and doing all this for free will abolish middlemen, encourage exchanges, and enable bands to operate successfully on a shoe string budget.
How they plan to make money:
Neworleansmusicians.net will offer advertising in three month increments, unlike the familiar year long contracts of most other web and print publications, and do so at a cut rate. We will be branding ourselves and marketing/ selling our own line of apparel and music accessories. We will sell genre based gift baskets in unique market savvy packaging. We will expand and revolutionize the technological mediums in which music is transferred from the seller to the buyer, and collect distribution based commissions.
