If you are an indie artist you need all the promo you can get. The problem is that promoting is expensive! Websites are costly to start and maintain, radio ads cost an arm, leg and two teeth, and magazines will only get you noticed if you purchase a full page (or if your audience reads that section in the back filled with random ads for things your mother warned you about).
Ok, Rod, so what is your solution besides handing out paper flyers on a street corner?? I suggest the services at www.independentmusicpromotions.com. They will publish you on their high-traffic music blog and post your pics and videos and stuff for all the world to see. They write their posts like an interview, which brings your audience in closer to get to know you, not just what you sound like.
They also have a book that is filled with info from years in the biz to help you get your band off and running with cheap marketing tips and info the insiders hide from you. The book is called "Your Band Is A Virus" and you can check that out here: www.yourbandisavirus.com.
