The Webpage

Fans Point of veiw
In terms of the fans and the way in which a webpage such as myspace being available, means a fan base can be very much strengthend and improved. It provides a way for the fans to feel a connection with there artist and a sense of interaction, through the likes of commenting or 'wall posts'.
By being on a socaial networking site it always gives the artist a sense of regularity and the way in which the are on the same site as the fans shows they are not trying to be superior and want the fans to ' feel the fame.

This allows fans to not feel a sense of neglect but also a way in which they can feel togetherness with there artist, in order to build a real relationship.
The webpage will allow fans to give suggestions on what track to produce next, or even what kind of genre they should look to hit. The artists fans are marjorly important, so keeping in touch with them through a social networking site is crucial.

A site such as myspace, is continously available for interaction between fans and artist. It also allows accessability to there songs around the clock with no real complications. The likes of iTunes not only allows around the clock accessability, but it enables fans to purchase music 24/7, which why sites such as myspace often have links to sites such as iTunes in order to maximise promotion and benefits to the artist.
This was one of the main reasons for myself focusing to promote the artist on a social networking site such as myspace.

Maintaining a style will help fans define the artist and will allow people to know what genre your music is in. The layout and design of the webpage has to link in with the artists theme. We have given our artists a hip-hop style and the webpage which I designed is also hip-hop, this will not confuse the fans at all so there will be no problems.
