ArtistData 101

The other day we relaunched ArtistData, along with a set of screencasts to help everyone understand how to use the new site. One area that we didn't cover well enough is music organizations. Today, we put this video together that gives a general overview of music organization accounts. It's embedded below, as well as available on our screencast page.



We have gotten a lot of requests for discounts for music organizations. We're going to design a solution for that and release it later this year. Thanks so much for all the feedback!

ArtistData 101 is a series of tips for getting started and using the ArtistData Dashboard.

Sometimes you want to enter information into ArtistData but not have it sent immediately to our network. We make this easy. When adding a show, news, or blog, you will see a "Publish?" field. If you choose Yes, it will be sent out to our network. If you choose "No" it will be saved in the ArtistData Dashboard but not made public yet.

To make something public later, either edit it in the individual news, show, or blog, or simply click the red X () on the view page. You'll see it turn to a check () and your item will be put in queue to be published!

ArtistData 101 is a series of tips for getting started and using the ArtistData Dashboard.

By automatically importing your Official News Feed into Facebook, you can keep Facebook fans up to date with new news, shows, and blog entries. It's simple to do and we posted instructions on it a few weeks ago, but Facebook made some changes since there and we've now updated the instructions.

Read on for the full instructions.

NOTE: We are going to start posting How To's to the blog every week or so. This is the first installment. Email support@artistdata.com if you have a suggestion on a future how-to.

When we post information to certain places (e.g. Twitter, Official News Feed) we need to provide a link to the full content. The most direct and efficient way to do this is to send fans to information pages with lots of links to your other web properties.

At the top of these pages there is room to put a customized banner image. Read on to see an example and to find out how to set yours up!
