How to Make a Music Website

So take some time to consider the type of content you want to include and the style you want to convey. These things affect the immediate response you’ll elicit from viewers. For the purpose of this tutorial I chose the Team music template. I chose this template because it includes many elements mixed together on the same page and is easy to refer to, but I will also refer to other flash templates and you are also more than welcome to choose a blank page and create an original masterpiece of your own.

First of all try to answer this next question: "Who am I?"
If you find yourself at a loss at this point, don’t worry, that’s perfectly normal. Now try to consider more practical matters, like what kind of background you want for your website. What color scheme, what kinds of textures, do you want a layered or smooth surface. Is your site going to be colorful or black & white? These things factor in strongly at a later point and really affect the vibes and character your website generates.

After choosing the backdrop for your website, see if you’re interested in other options, such as a frames and page areas. Using the page areas or even pictures to arrange the layout of your page is very helpful in directing visitors to your site to the most important areas of interests.

In the team flash template, the website designer decided to place all the information on one page. This has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that impatient visitors will be almost immediately exposed to all your information. The disadvantage is that unless you tread carefully, you may end up with a sloppy mess and achieve the exact opposite result.

Upload your music, pictures and videos. Notice that different templates place the music player in different areas of the page. Many templates place the music player towards the top part of the page. This makes a lot of sense, particularly when your website content includes pictures and videos. Pictures tend to draw the eye more easily, so placing them at the bottom of the page runs less of a risk that visitors will miss them. Choose a music player through the Widget button on the left menu.

You have many choices regarding the manner in which you display your pictures. Choose a gallery type that best suits your needs, and adjust its skin and effects to match the rest of your site. The team template has music, pictures and videos and the layout is gradual from top to bottom. First the texts, then the music, then the pictures and finally the videos. This is a very reasonable choice and works well in terms of the eye’s natural wander.

Don’t forget to write something about yourself or your band. You can add text paragraphs wherever you want, but placing them in relation to other media is always advisable. Consider the words you choose to describe yourself. Are there specific keywords relevant to your activities that can lead people surfing Google to your site?

Wix.com takes care of the hosting aspect of your site. If you want to have your own customized domain you can upgrade your website to premium. Now all that’s left is to create links to other sites and start mingling online. The more websites you link yourself to, the more people will see your site and become exposed to your material.
