How To Make A Solid Income Selling Beats Online!

Dear MFS blog readers, it's been a while since I've posted here & there's a good reason for that (more about that later). I decided to get back & let you guys know about some great techniques & steps to make, so you can get a pretty solid monthly income selling beats online! Let's get right to it.

As I said, I've been away for a good reason. Well, the reason is that I've been working on some pretty crazy stuff lately, real big stuff, that's also the reason why I stopped selling beats on my website. But something weird happened. Let me tell you this short story:

So I got in touch with some great industry personalities, songwriters, managers, A&R's. My job as the producer was to make a bunch of songs. Not a big deal for me, since I'm a bit experienced already. 1 Song (fully produced & written) takes about 1 day of work. As you can imagine, after I made a bunch of songs I had a lot (really a lot) of free time.

What did I do in that free time? Partying, drinking, smoking? Those who know me, know that that's not my thing. Of course I started a few more projects to make EVEN MORE money...that's my mentality, can't change it...haha. Anyways. Something crazy happened. As I was trying to make some money some funny ads pop'd up. Of course I closed them, because I hate ads, just like anybody else. But I had that banner in mind all day long, because it said I can make $463,46 (or so) online, all on auto-pilot. Ok, so I had to google that, it sounded too promising to me.

As you can image, I kept digging & tried to get more & more information about making money online by not working at all (meaning all on auto-pilot). So I bought many courses, software & ebooks...just because I was really curious about this whole thing. I can't tell you how many hundreds of $$$ I spend within a few days, haha, but I don't regret it to be honest.

Before I tell you the simple method, I'd like to warn you: You will never make money by 100% No Work. There is always a little bit of work you have to do, but once you're done, you're on auto-pilot & you can watch the money come in. Simple, but it takes a little effort! Ok, let's start:

 

  1. Beat Catalog - The very first thing you need is a catalog of beats. I'd suggest about 50 or so. Very important: upload new beats regularly! I always noticed, in the weeks that I didn't upload any beats to my website, I kept having less & less sales. So keep that in mind. Big question: How can I make so many beats in so short time? I know it's a lot of work to make 10 new beats every week, but let me tell you a little secret. I'm pretty sure you guys heard about DubTurbo. I know, I know...it's for amateurs. But guess what: Rappers & Singers who lease beats online LOVE DubTurbo beats. Why? Don't ask me, I have no idea! I guess it's the simplicity that attracts them, but you will have guaranteed rapper-friendly beats, when you use DubTurbo. I wouldn't use it for industry artists, but it's cool for the young kids, who buy beats online! If you want to check out DubTurbo click here.
  2. Website - I know many of you guys hate this part, but you really need a GOOD website to sell beats online. Yes, a website - not a SoundClick page. I know that some of the myFlashStore top sellers sell their beats on SoundClick - yes, but they have something that you don't have - A HUGE FANBASE. But trust me, you can make way more money than that by having your own website. Everyday more rappers leave SoundClick & buy their beats from websites they find on Google! If you don't know how to design or code a website, hit me up & I'll help you. Since you're part of myFlashStore, I'll give you a very affordable offer. I've coded about 50 websites so far, I can have yours done in 2-3 hours. My contact information is at the very on of this post! Let's move on...
  3. Traffic - What's a good website without traffic, right? I have to admit, that this is a big pain if you have no idea about it. But nowadays it's easy - we all have the web & we can use it for research. I'd suggest you check out Underground Traffic Secrets. It's basically a very cheap way to learn how to drive a lot of traffic to your website & start earning money!
  4. Keep your website updated - Ok, this is the last step & probably the most important one. Why? Well, your visitors LOVE to see that you still care about your website & about the products that you offer. They appreciate the seriosity. Just like you - when you buy a bottle of Coke, i'm sure you don't want it to be a few years old & with dust on it, right?

That's it basically. Let's make it clear - you won't make $300 Million dollars every day using this technique, but you'll have a solid & regular income by exactly following the steps. I'll post a lot more in the future, because I learned so many techniques & tricks that can be done on the internet - you can't even imagine how huge the internet marketing is right now, but I'll reveal some of the knowledge every time I post on here.

If any producers fell that you can make money without using any of these tactics, then your dead wrong. You have to treat your music like a business not a hustle.

Hey Shyne, great post!

I was wondering if you could explain a bit more about your traffic methods. I googled "underground traffic secrets" and there are a few different hits, was wondering which one you're referring to? I know you do SEO because we have traded links already, and I was wondering, is link trading all you do, or is there any other methods you use to get backlinks?

Thanks!

Hey Ben,

I'm sorry that you didn't find Underground Traffic Secrets...I just updated the blog post. If you click on it, you will be sent to the right website. There are plenty more products that will teach you how to get more traffic, just send an email if you're interested.

I actually don't do any SEO any more. I found out that, for me, other traffic sources work way better. It takes a lot of time and effort though to get it working. But once you're done with the hard work it starts working automatically. (If you do it right of course.)

I'm going to post some blogs soon about traffic. Obviously that's the most interesting thing for ya'll. (Well, for me actually to.)
