Updated Help System Available in Control Panel
NoteWay is proud to announce that a new Help system is now available for customers inside the control panel. It contains instructions on how to use certain sections of the control panel (such as how to create and post MP3 samples on your website). It also includes answers to frequently asked questions about your NoteWay website.
The help section is arranged into different topics, such as Text and Photos, CDs and MP3s, Appearance, E-mail, and Newsletter Manager. This allows you to quickly find answers to your questions. Plus, it is available at any time in the control panel by clicking the green question mark icon for Help at the top of the screen.
NoteWay will continue to add more topics and answers as time goes on. Please feel free to contact us if you have any suggestions for other help topics.
NoteWay Launches Resource Center With Articles and Free Advice
NoteWay has recently launched a resource center with free advice. It covers a variety of topics such as how to promote your music online, tips for maintaining your NoteWay website, music industry news, and ways to enhance your music career through your website.
Each issue of the NoteWay Notes email newsletter will contain some featured articles from our resource center. You can also see the entire list of articles that are available by visiting the resource center directly at www.noteway.com/notes.
Tell-A-Friend About NoteWay and Get Free Service
NoteWay is proud to announce the launch of our Tell-A-Friend referral program. This is our way of thanking our existing customers for helping to spread the word about NoteWay.
The Tell-A-Friend referral program allows our customers to get a free month of service for every friend they refer to us. Each NoteWay customer will receive a free month of service for each friend that signs up for a NoteWay website and maintains their account for at least 30 days.
If you’re an existing NoteWay customer, we’ve made it easy to get started. NoteWay customers can refer friends directly from the NoteWay control panel and track the status of these referrals. Simply follow the link below to log into the control panel and then follow the link at the top that says “Start referring friends now!”. This will take you to a form where you can quickly send out invitations to your friends via email.
Featured Article: Attracting Visitors To Your Website
Having your own website is a great way to promote your music online. However, once you’ve launched your site, you will need to find ways to attract visitors to your site. Here are a few tips to help you get started.
Get other sites to link to you
It may sound obvious, but one of the best ways for people to find you is through other sites linking to you. There are several online music directories that will list you for free and include a link to your website. For example, if you live in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, you can get a free listing in the Minnesota Music Directory (they also have paid listings).
Include your website address on printed materials
Be sure to include your website address on all of your printed materials, such as business cards, letters, flyers, etc. If you’re interviewed by a newspaper or magazine, ask that they include your website address in the final printed article.
