How to Promote Your Celtic Band Online
Cost-efficient way to promote your band or label
with the Celtic MP3s Music Magazine

The Celtic MP3s Music Magazine is a free weekly newsletter that goes out to over 21,000 Celtic music-lovers every week. I receive dozens of emails from bands begging to be featured, but I only have room for two bands per issue. Space is extremely limited.

How to Get Featured in the Magazine or Irish & Celtic Music Podcast

• Email 1-4 full-length MP3s (128kbps) to music@celticmp3s.com right now

• Put CELTIC MUSIC MAGAZINE SUBMIT in the subject line.

• I can accept up to 10MB per email. So 2 MP3s in each email is fine.

How to get improve your chances of a feature:

1. Have Free MP3s? Submit your band for a feature.
   Every week, I feature a two Celtic music groups. Please re-submit with every new CD release.

2. Submit to my Celtic Compilation CD.
   New compilations only go out once a year, and this is a win-win-win deal for all involved. All tracks added to the compilation WILL be featured. Also, if you send in a CD and you sell CDs through CDBaby, your CD will be added to one of our featured CD groups.

3. Link to us.
   It's all about networking. I like to help bands who like to help me. So add a link. When you are done, tell me where your link is.

4. Talk to Me.
   One of the reasons I started this magazine was to get to know other Celtic music groups. I want to know about you and your group. Please don't add me to your mailing list, but please drop me an email and let's talk.

5. Submit to Other Celtic Podcasts
   We are friends with a number of Celtic podcasts like the Cleveland Celtic Podcast and the Celtic Folk Podcast. If you would like additional exposure of your music, then submit to those podcasts as well.
