    Default Searching for Dj's

    Hey there,

    I'm building a music web site and I'm searching DJ's that want to participate. Their music will be played in a on-line radio and they will have all the mixes and productions promoted on the web and also in Facebook, Twitter..etc... It's a promote-project for your music and carreer, since I'm a student and I'm in my university final project.

    If you're interested just take contact in the follow e-mail: radion.contact@gmail.com


    Thank you for your cooperation!

    good luck mate
    i took 6 months to develop the initial build of my station
    released it another 3 months later
    and that was back in 2005

    today its still running and always being more and more developed. Its fun
    but the hardest part is getting the djs to actually do things on the station other than show up for their own live broadcasts

    again.. good luck

    What kind of other stuff are djs expected to do? Just general promotion, social media ect or is there more?

    For me it's just ok if they want to participate with the music content

    In my case I will try to broadcast live sessions

    well it doesnt seem fait that they only show up to promote themselves
    thats not a communal effort. its pretty selfish.

    The djs should be promoting themselves yes but not all the time and ONLY because think of it
    how many times in a week do you want an AVON rep coming to your door talking about the same products?
    Eventually youd get tired and wouldnt listen anymore.

    This is the biggest WRONG thing i see djs doing for many years and without realizing it, they keep asking "Why are people not reading my emails, going to my facebook, following on twitter, or downloading my mixes?"

    The answer is becaus a SINGLE dj is flooding them with too many lipsticks in a week. NOw add to that 12 other djs
    doing the same thing to those same people...... what do you get as the recipient?

    the one thing that drives a website is content so a dj posting once a week about thier mix isnt NEW content
    its just a repeat..... and so would the other djs on board so

    Djs should
    Help the site find news articles
    Post regular messages on the boards
    Promote a song from soundcloud they found to the site (and have the site admin push that info out)
    Basically if a dj is going to be part of a major and massive sized website (like mine) they have to be part of the site
    not just be a gnat in the site.

    As the site administrator, its your job to do two things
    1) continue to develop the site
    2) continue to manage the "staff"

    Everything else, should be handled by the members of the site otherwise its
    A) the djs name just posting mixes over and over again - thats what the visitors see
    B) the admins name just posting everything all over the place - thats what the visitors see

    No one can do this alone. It takes a team doing it ALL and all together

    Great reply, thank you.

    For myself I do my best not to spam, I do post my mixes once a week or so on my FB account and maybe on some forums but that's it. Realistically, I hardly get any hits that way anyways. Post Your Mix forums are mostly comprised of DJs posting and nobody replying or even listening.
