IndieTunes.com now has 1,059 Artists!!!!

OK, I passed a small milestone and didn't even realize it until tonight. About 1 year ago, a started a website called indieTunes.com which i envisioned as being the best place on the internet for independent artists to sell and stream their downloadable music on a secure platform, and the best part of it all is, that my business model (as crazy as it may be) pays the artist 100% of the profits from every song sold. Let's see ya beat that!!! The only thing that gets deducted from the sale are visa/MasterCard/ and pay pal fees (which dont go to indietunes anyway) and the rest gets paid to the artist. The only thing indieTunes.com charges is a $9.99 a month membership fee for a Premium membership which allows you to sell your downloadable music and stream your music videos. Basic memberships are FREE, and you can stream your music and alot of other stuff with a Basic. So if you can sell one album a month, you can virtually break even, and everything after that is pure profit. Not bad huh? OK, for anyone who thinks I'm getting rich off the backs of indie artists, think again. Building this site has practically put me in the poor house and I am no where near break-even point on monthly expenses let alone my full investment. However, I have confidence that someday this will be one of the cornerstone sites for independent artists on the internet, and I will continue to build and upgrade and promote the site to ensure its success. So far in the first year, with very little promotion, we've gotten 1,059 artists on the site to date. I'm ramping up to do national PR (anybody know an insanely talented web PR person?) and I'll be much happier when the site has 10,000 artists, which I'd like to say is my goal for this time next year. So hey, spread the word. indieTunes.com is a great site, and we're finishing up a very substantial upgrade right now that will add to each artists page (yes every artist gets their own page), the upgrade will add a photo gallery, artist blog, and a reviews section to every page. So, do me a favor, go spend some time surfing indietunes, get a feel for it, give me some feedback, positive or negative (I'm a big boy I can take it), and spread the word. Me and the indieTunes staff are working very hard every day to make this a successful site!! Source: Indie Tunes Blog For more information on Independent artists Visit indieTunes.com
