inviting people to blackout

**davethedrummer** · 12-06-2009, 06:57 PM

I was thinking about this a while ago
and then funnily enough mark pulled the site down because so many people couldn't sign up.
so now we have a fresh site and a new server
I think it's about time we all plugged the hell out of blackout audio on our respective websites blogs

so Marky boy , can we have a banner please to stick up on our sites ?
you know? a "click here" blackout audio logo type thingy to take people to the registration page ?

good idea?

perhaps something with a little lightbulb that goes out when you click it
or something that blacks out your whole screen for a second or 2.
can that be done ?

it could be done. like an FF add on. or like them picture viewers that whe you click to enlarge the screen goes black, link in the middle of it. good idea H.

it's a great idea.

but i think the actual registration changes won't be fully realized until next week, so i'd hold off until mark gives the go-ahead.

I've been hawking BOA on my face book profile and fan page* - few people said they gonna sign up

* I know, what a dick! :D

But yeah, a facebook advert is pretty easy to set up and cheap as well, you can specify how much per-day to budget. We need MOAR traffic, I'm the only one rating shit in RAW I swear. I've gotta stop now cos it's my tunes up there! Get on it people.

I think a targeted ad on Facebook is needed.

**MITA** · 13-06-2009, 03:16 PM

yeah i agre that gores for the admins to solve,this fanpage/group can help out and is decent promo imo.so whos on fb can help promote this page by sending invite to their friends

**judas_beast** · 13-06-2009, 05:45 PM

gonna invite all my friends, shared it on my profile - know a few people have already tried to register.

good stuff

I love the idea of the lightbulb, not sure people would appreciate anything that blacks out their whole screen though.

**The Overfiend** · 16-06-2009, 06:43 PM

I'm with it, good thinking.

**DannyBlack** · 16-06-2009, 08:57 PM

perhaps RSS feeds from the events and releases section. And maybe even RAW.

Also, if you're on a flier for a gig, if it's possible, get the blackoutaudio website address put on there. maybe leave a few little cards/fliers/roach material at parties. (more costly)

welcome dude

**DannyBlack** · 17-06-2009, 06:11 PM

welcome! :-)

**victorjohn** · 17-06-2009, 06:25 PM

Oh hey thanks y'all! I am glad to be here. My music fits more in the easily attacked "minimal" (I saw the hawtin fashion thread) or less hateable tech-house category... so not sure where I fit here...

But I do I have a long history with techno and DJed hard techno and acid from 1993 to about 2002, own a 303 and no matter how I develop as an artist this stuff is like comfort food to me.

Thanks for the warm welcome!
