If your band has a MySpace account then no doubt you will be using it to promote your music and gain more listeners but did you ever stop to think about how the design of your page could affect the functionality of your profile? If you haven’t then this article will explain why the design of your MySpace page is possibly one of the most overlooked parts of your promotional efforts.

MySpace is the ideal place for you to promote your band and music, you can build a page free of charge, you can upload songs for free and you can even add friends for free, it truly is a dream to get this kind of service all under one roof and even better it’s all for free.

You may have seen bands that have really well designed MySpace profile that are built with flash and just look instantly slick and professional but what they may be overlooking is to focus on a goal for the page.

All good design must look good as well as produce some kind of measurable result, for example if your music is great and your page looks professional then you need to make sure that you think about the goal of the page and bring the attention of viewer to focus on this element.

Let’s say you know that to increase your exposure, the easiest way is to add more friends but you don’t want to spend a tonne of money paying for that service, well this is where good design comes into play.

With a good design you can focus the visitors attention onto the add to friends button, that way you can get the same amount of profile views as before but now you get more people adding you as a friend.

This is a really simple concept but one that many overlook, try it yourself and see if this one little tip increases your friends list, this is just one example of how a professional MySpace band layout design can really boost exposure for your band.
