DOES YOUR BAND/LABEL NEED A WEBSITE/WEBSTORE?

seanpatrick - 9-16-2009 at 12:12 PM

So, I've been building websites, webstores, etc. for bands and labels over the past few years. All of the people I've worked for have pretty much come to me via word-of-mouth, but I figured it couldn't hurt to post on some message boards about what I can offer. I also came up with some package deals I'll be offering right now... check it out and email me (sean@thenewlanguage.com) if you're interested. Thanks!

PACKAGE #1 (EVERYTHING!) - $600
* website build/customization
* webstore build/customization
* download code feature integrated into website (for including codes in vinyl)

PACKAGE #2 (NECESSITIES) - $500
* website build/customization
* webstore build/customization

PACKAGE #3 (WEBSITE + CODES) - $400
* website build/customization
* download code feature integrated into website (for including codes in vinyl)

PACKAGE #4 (WEBSITE or WEBSTORE only) - $300
* website build/customization OR webstore build/customization

I can also make banner ads, pop-up players, message boards, EPKs, etc. Just email for a quote.

I've done web work for the following bands/labels: Youngblood Records, Six Feet Under Records, A389 Recordings, Grave Mistake Records, Trash Talk, No Way Records, Dirtnap Records, Government Warning, 20 Buck Spin, Forcefield Records, Absent Records, PastePunk.com, Blood & Ink Records, and a ton more.

Jason the Magnificent - 9-16-2009 at 12:38 PM

I don't know about all that...seems like something that some people may find useful.

Uh oh, BD better watch out... he might be getting replaced. :lol:

BDx13 - 9-16-2009 at 12:43 PM

yeah, i'm gonna fire myself.

that said, i will be reviewing sean's work.
never hurts.

seanpatrick - 9-16-2009 at 12:44 PM

not trying to step on any toes... just getting the word out there.

XHonusWagnerX - 9-16-2009 at 01:33 PM

I think the 'LifeIsABitch' comment was in reference to this being a new board member whos first post was selling something... and something expensive at that.

don't come here spamming your first post...
that is all

seanpatrick - 9-16-2009 at 01:51 PM

is it really spamming if it's a legit service at a much cheaper price than anyone else offers these services to legit labels? the going rate for download codes alone is $200+.

XnMeX - 9-16-2009 at 02:14 PM

Or I can do the same things he mentiond at $100 less.

It's spamming if you sign up to a messageboard you have never posted at just to whore out yourself, yes.

Banned.

Vanilla Gorilla - 9-16-2009 at 02:35 PM

Fuck i was gonna buy like 10 of them

JUICE MAYNE MSHC - 9-16-2009 at 02:38 PM

I don't really see anything wrong with this. Like Jason said, some people (like me) might find it useful info.

ShawnRefuse - 9-16-2009 at 02:58 PM

BTW, most of this board can design their own sites, or help each other with it.

:rolleyes:

welcome aboard though.

Jason the Magnificent - 9-16-2009 at 03:01 PM

Spamming is more of an abuse issue, than anything. Someone coming to a board that's related to a service they're offering and making one post about said services is hardly enough to get my panties in a wad. Now if he kept coming here and bumping and never contributing then sure....that's got the suck.

Its far less annoying than some random listen to my band post by someone that is hitting every board on earth and never coming back.

You guys seriously need a hug.

How is that nay different? Especially since there are already tons of "regbulars" here that design website (myself included) it is like me grabbing a bag of apples and trying to sell my apples to someone at a fruit stand that already sells apples.

I just called the Thorp board a fruit stand... Your welcome!

Well I didn't say it was different, just less annoying.

I don't see someone coming here, posting a well worded easy to scan advertisement for a related service that annoying I guess.

If any of you went to any other boards I frequent and posted that clear and concise of an advertisement of your services I wouldn't get wound up either. I don't really follow links in sigs to investigate what everyone does so I wouldn't know who does web design without someone poking me and pointing in that direction.

So in a nutshell,

-things that people could possibly use, regardless of their cost value compared to the same service by others = not that annoying.

-people coming and posting about the next generic band that sucks and will fade away in 3 months = only slightly more annoying.

glad to be fodder for discussion if nothing else.

If you're starting to notice, nobody is annoyed that you're here and posting. Just that most of us aren't too fond of the first post from anyone being an attempt to sell... well, anything. I'm sure that everyone here would welcome more posts from you, and I'm guessing you're good people given that you've worked with A389 before. And it's not a problem advertising you're services, as long as it's not obviously the only reason you're here.

But I'd still hire BD or one of the other guys first... not that I need a website.

XHonusWagnerX - 9-16-2009 at 07:20 PM

if its not an ad about Bad Brains I dont wann see it

EXACTLY! It is the spoken / unspoken rule of the Thorp board. Feel free to post here, we don't like to scare people off but if it is just to advertise then fuck right off.

Atleast he's not trying to sell us vacations to Greece.
