← Lyricful BlogHost your lyrics with us
There are lots of song lyric websites out there – and even more music related sites where you can host your lyrics – but Lyricful is the best place to promote your lyrics on the web.
Here’s why…
Benefits of being a featured artist
We’re better at search engine optimization
Other sites like Soundcloud, Bandcamp, and ReverbNation host lyrics on your mp3 files and that’s great. We love what they’re doing! However, no other site out there is optimized for searches for lyrics like we are.
Your other profiles will simply not rank for Google searches on “[your artist name] lyrics” or “[your song name] lyrics” like we will. It’s a proven fact that fans use those exact terms most often when looking for lyrics and song meanings.
Get more publicity
For our initial run all verified artists will receive a rotating spot on our homepage, highlighting your music with your picture and list of songs shown.
In the future we also plan to cross-link artists which will give you exposure if people are viewing similar artists to you. Lyricful will be a great marketing opportunity for you.
Drive sales of your music
When you add lyrics to our database we automatically search Amazon mp3 and iTunes for your songs. We display a song player right next to your lyrics where people can hear your songs, and then click through to purchase them.
Engage with your fans
We prompt your fans to discuss not only your songs, but their meanings. This is a great chance to engage with your fans and discuss your music.
Really? Another profile I have to maintain?
As music fans and musicians ourselves we understand that there are a lot of “profile” sites out there claiming to hype your music. We make it easy for you by allowing you to sign in with your existing Twitter or Facebook account – which you probably already have.
How To Participate
We’re currently looking for artists who want to participate in our initial run. If you’re interested please email us.
We will need
- The name of your Lyricful account after you’ve signed in with either Twitter or Facebook
- A high resolution picture of you
- A bio
- A list of your lyrics, typed in text files
Adding yourself is easy
Simply find your name on our artist directory, then click the claim this profile link to send us a message. If you’re not currently listed on our site – not to worry, just drop us a line.
Can we improve this?
We’re still working on these features – and we’d love to hear what you think of this idea. Is there anything else we could be doing to help you share your lyrics? Let us know.
