Now that you know what's to gain, here's a list of sites you should be heavy on, & how to use them: 



1. FACEBOOK
Current Users: 1.1 Billion



I love you fb! The marketing strategies are endless.  Facebook is so popular, because it’s just an all-around cool place to go. It’s where you can keep in contact with family, friends, old high school buddies and a host of other random people. What most people don’t realize is facebook is also a good place to get people interested in your music, book shows, promote an events, coordinate plans, and network with 100’s of your peers without even trying.







2. TWITTER
Current Users: 500 Million
You know what twitter does. It's a direct contact to just about anybody on the planet Earth. In addition to just plain networking on twitter users can compile "Lists". Lists allows users interact strategically with other users based upon their job titles.






3. HOOTSUITE
Current Users: 6 Million



Hootsuite is the bridge between 5 different social media networks. It allows users to easily manage twitter, facebook, google+, foursquare, & linkedIn. It's a life saver. You can post new music simultaneously to all sites & even set calendar to automate you year's music marketing campaign!    





4. LINKEDIN
Current Users: 225 Million
LinkedIn is like facebook for businesses. It's the ultimate place to network, because it's the 1 platform where you can quickly identify who everyone is. On LinkedIn your profile is your resume. It's a place to find like minded people, promote your brand, get a job, get a sponsorship, find a partner, ect. 


5. GOOGLE+
Current Users: 343 Million


Google+ is a facebook copycat. The reason it's #5 is simply, because of how many google users there out are. Almost everyone has a gmail account or searches using google.com therefore creating content on the same network makes for great SEO rankings for you or whatever you are promoting. 






6. INSTAGRAM
Current Users: 130 Million
I'm not big on Instagram, but it is quickly becoming a trendy platform to promote. Instagram allows users to upload photo & easily add dope effects. After photos are tweeked users can then share with built-in Instagram community or share with the world!






7. REVERBNATION
Current Users: 3 Million

Reverbnation is a 1 stop shop for artists of all genres. It is the best social media network specifically for the promotion of independent musicians worldwide. Here users can make a profile, share new music, promote events, find events, find local opportunities, & there's even a large directory of local & national artists ranked by popularity & buzz.  






8. *NEW* MYSPACE
Current Users: 33 Million

Myspace almost didn't make this list, but I saw a commercial the other day that changed my mind. They've gutted the old useless navigation & replaced it with a new sleek design. Myspace is the original social media network geared towards music promotion & it's on a comeback! More info here.
