Use the CD Baby Music Store Widget to sell directly to your fans on Facebook

We recently launched our new Music Store Widget, giving DIY artists a free and simple way to sell MP3s, CDs, and vinyl directly to fans. The customizable store can easily be embedded on your website, blog, or Facebook Page (through an HTML-enabling app like Static HTML: iFrames tab). Facebook's importance as a music promotion tool is increasing every day, so we thought we'd give you step-by-step instructions on how to embed the CD Baby Music Store Widget on your Facebook band/artist Page.

Please note: This involves using a third party app that is NOT supported by CD Baby. Both Facebook and third party apps can change without notice, so please keep that in mind as you try to add this to your page.

1. First, create your Music Store Widget by following the instructions HERE.

2. Log into your Facebook account

3. Search for "Static HTML: iFrames tab" in the Facebook search field. Or, better yet, just click HERE.

4. Click to select this app. You will then see this page...



5. Click the "Go to App" button. You will then see this page...


6. Use the "-choose a page-" pulldown menu to select which Facebook Page you would like to place your Music Store Widget on.

7. Click the "Add Static HTML: iFrames tab" button.

8. Paste the HTML code for your Music Store Widget into the box that says "Enter your content here." As shown below:

9. Click the "Save and view tab" button.
Your Facebook Page fans are going to see the tab displayed as "Static HTML." That doesn't sound very appealing, so you'll want to rename the tab. As you can see from the example above, I renamed the tab "Music Store."

To rename the tab...
10. Click the "Edit Page" button on your wall.

11. Click "apps" on the lefthand side of the screen.

12. Click "edit settings" beneath "Static HTML: iframe tabs."

13. Type "Music Store" (or whatever else you'd like to call it) into the "Custom Tab Name" field.

14. Presto!

Now your fans can purchase your music right from your Facebook Page. If you'd like to move the Music Store tab up or down on the lefthand Facebook display (Wall, Photos, Videos, apps, etc.), just click "edit" and drag the apps around to your heart's content.
