In the 3rd weekly installment of Track Star Tuesdays, we have L.A. based indie band No More Kings. This band is about to head out on a really cool summer tour and they have an incredible album to help them create revenue.

In typical Track Star Tuesdays fashion, here is the Good and the Bad:
The Good
Great Mysapce -- killer design plus its easy to read, very clean and has all merch, calls to action, street team, videos,
Love the Fan of the Week -- brings the fans that much closer to the band -- should integrate that into main site as well
Own Google 1st page for the search for "No More Kings"
Digital Distribution is on point -- iTunes, Amazon, etc
Great Facebook page
The Bad
Not utilizing their blog -- not even sure of the purpose of the blog (although they do use their blog on Myspace and get good conversations brewing -- move that to a private site to start tracking traffic)
Site is built entirely in flash -- alienating slower computers and losing SEO points (not too big a deal)
No ads on site -- not a bad thing but a lost revenue stream
My 2 Cents
You'll have to tune it to find out!
Who do you want to see next week? let me know and we can make it happen!
hey man! this was great. wonderful insight, and great advice. i'll definitely run this stuff by the label. thanks again!
