Having said that,\u00a0here are some general rules to consider.\u00a0If you&#8217;re just getting started, I&#8217;d recommend you <strong>upload\u00a0as many of your best beats from\u00a0your existing production catalog<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>At a minimum, you&#8217;ll want to&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>Add at Least 25-50 Beats to Your Site<\/h2>\n<p>Ideally on the upper end of this range (50+ beats) starting out. <em>Why?<\/em> This will give the artists visiting\u00a0your website a considerable number of instrumentals to peruse through and download. And if\u00a0you produce\u00a0a <a href=\"http:\/\/tcustomz.com\/buy-hip-hop-beats.html\" target=\"_blank\">variety of genres<\/a>, make sure\u00a0to showcase your versatility in case the artist is looking for a specific style or sound. \u00a0Generally speaking, this will give you a better chance of appealing to their specific tastes and the potential of making more beat sales overall.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/tcustomz.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-7704\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"949\" height=\"463\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7704 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/producer-website-beat-player.png\" alt=\"producer website beat player\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/producer-website-beat-player.png 949w, https:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/producer-website-beat-player-300x146.png 300w, https:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/producer-website-beat-player-768x375.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 949px) 100vw, 949px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Build Your List<\/h2>\n<p>Even if you only have a\u00a0limited number of instrumentals\u00a0uploaded to your site at first, you&#8217;ll\u00a0also want to leverage the use of an <a href=\"http:\/\/tcustomz.com\/free-download.html\" target=\"_blank\">opt-in page<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; where artists can sign-up for free beats in exchange for their e-mail address. This will help you build a list of\u00a0potential customers (leads) to follow up with and keep informed via e-mail when you upload new tracks or other relevant information. I&#8217;d recommend either\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aweber.com\/?430579\" target=\"_blank\">Aweber<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/GTawH\" target=\"_blank\">Mailchimp<\/a> for easily managing all your email subscribers\u00a0early on.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/tcustomz.com\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-7705\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"273\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7705\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/free-beats.png\" alt=\"mailing list free beats\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/free-beats.png 650w, https:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/free-beats-300x126.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Arrange Your Best\u00a0Tracks at the Top<\/h2>\n<p>If you use an instant beat store like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/blog\/soundgine-review-sell-beats-albums-singles-online\/\" target=\"_blank\">Soundgine<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myflashstore.net\/152.html\" target=\"_blank\">Myflashstore<\/a> on your website (or even with an\u00a0integrated music player or other third-party embed store), I highly recommend arranging your best beats at the top of your player. \u00a0Especially\u00a0to appeal to\u00a0new listeners, this will be a sure-fire way to hook them right away. If they like your first couple tracks, they&#8217;ll be magnitudes more likely to listen to more,\u00a0become more engaged, and hopefully\u00a0find some titles they&#8217;ll want to purchase.<\/p>\n<h2>Upload As Many Quality Beats as You Have<\/h2>\n<p>You don&#8217;t always\u00a0know which beats are going to appeal most to the artists visiting your website. And so as\u00a0you start to develop a larger instrumental catalog,\u00a0uploading\u00a0more quantity\u00a0to your site\u00a0will inherently give you many more opportunities to sell your tracks. \u00a0Having said that, never sacrifice quality for quantity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>\u2014 LET\u2019S CONNECT! \u2014<\/h3>\n<p><strong>I\u2019m very reachable on the following:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/\">Official Website<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/tcustomzdotcom\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/tcustomzproductionz\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/tcustomz\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/soundcloud.com\/tcustomz\" target=\"_blank\">Soundcloud<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/tcustomz\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><em>PLEASE LIKE, COMMENT &amp; SHARE IF\u00a0YOU LIKED THIS VIDEO \ud83d\ude42<\/em><\/h5>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tcustomz.com\/music-business-consulting.html\" target=\"_blank\"><button class=\"btn btn-large btn-primary\" type=\"button\">1-on-1 MUSIC MARKETING &amp; BUSINESS COACHING &gt;&gt;<\/button><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/tcustomz.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><button class=\"btn btn-large btn-danger\" type=\"button\">DOWNLOAD Hip Hop SOUND KITS &amp; BEATS &gt;&gt;<\/button><\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As an online music producer, you may wonder <strong>how many instrumentals you should\u00a0add to your beat-selling website<\/strong> to\u00a0maximize sales and keep\u00a0your potential fans and customers engaged.
