The Blog
"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side."

Band Web Sites

Every band should have its own web site! There are very inexpensive ways to build them. In fact, some are totally free!!

In my opinion, the best solution is the $0 hosting plan from Doteasy.com! They charge $25/year to renew your domain name and $0/year for basic hosting. This means that for the total cost of $25/year, you can have a stand-alone web site with your own URL. You get 100 MB of storage space, 1 GB of bandwidth each month, and 10 Email addresses using your chosen URL. This package will NOT handle PHP, MSQL, and other more sophisticated functions, but for a basic web site, you can't beat the price! Doteasy.com is the company that we use for all of our websites.

Don't want to spend $25? How about a free web site? You won't get your own URL, and there will be ads on your page from the hosting company, but PureVolume.com offers a basic mini site at no cost! You get a home page, a music page where you can host 3 MP3s, a photo page for up to 8 pictures, and a bio and contact page. Check it out! Even if you build a "real" web site on Doteasy.com, you can do one on Pure Volume, too! You can't have too much exposure!

MySpace.com offers a packge similar to PureVolume.com.
